Secure multiparty computation (MPC) allows multiple parties to evaluate functions without disclosing the private inputs. Secure comparisons (testing equality and greater-than) are important primitives required by many MPC applications. We propose two equality tests for ℓ-bit values with
O
(1) online communication that require
O
(ℓ) respectively
O
(
κ
) total work, where
κ
is a correctness parameter.
Combining these with ideas of Toft [16], we obtain (i) a greater-than protocol with sublinear online complexity in the arithmetic black-box model (
O
(
c
) rounds and
O
(
c
·ℓ
1/
c
) work online, with
c
= logℓ resulting in logarithmic online work). In difference to Toft, we do not assume two mutually incorruptible parties, but
O
(ℓ) offline work is required, and (ii) two greater-than protocols with the same online complexity as the above, but with overall complexity reduced to
O
(logℓ(
κ
+ loglogℓ)) and
O
(
c
·ℓ
1/
c
(
κ
+ logℓ)); these require two mutually incorruptible parties, but are highly competitive with respect to online complexity when compared to existing protocols.
