Secure set-intersection computation is one of important problems in secure multiparty computation with various applications. We propose a general construction for secure 2-party set-intersection computation based-on anonymous IBE (identity-based encryption) scheme and its user private-keys blind generation techniques. Compared with related works, this construction is provably GUC(generalized un...

Let (M, g) be a complete non compact Kähler manifold with non-negative and bounded holomorphic bisectional curvature. Extending our techniques developed in [8], we prove that the universal cover M̃ of M is biholomorphic to Cn provided either that (M, g) has average quadratic curvature decay, or M supports an eternal solution to the Kähler-Ricci flow with non-negative and uniformly bounded holomo...

purpose: to evaluate the effect of age, sex, type of surgery, extent of retinal detachment (rd), vitreous incarceration in wound, and myopic degeneration on the rate of retinal redetachment following rd surgery using eternal weibull regression analysis. methods: we performed a survival analysis on a multi-center randomized controlled trial conducted on patients with pseudophakic or aphakic rd t...

Motivated by the lessons of black hole complementarity, we develop a causal patch description of eternal inflation. We argue that an observer cannot ascribe a semiclassical geometry to regions outside his horizon, because the large-scale metric is governed by the fluctuations of quantum fields. In order to identify what is within the horizon, it is necessary to understand the late time asymptot...

The quantum behavior of noncommutative eternal inflation is quite different from the usual knowledge. Unlike the usual eternal inflation, the quantum fluctuation of noncommutative eternal inflation is suppressed by the Hubble parameter. Due to this, we need to reconsider many conceptions of eternal inflation. In this paper we study the Hawking-Moss tunneling in noncommutative eternal inflation ...

The Eternal system supports distributed object applications that must operate continuously, without interruption of service, despite faults and despite upgrades to the hardware and the software. Based on the CORBA distributed object computing standard, the Eternal system replicates objects, invisibly and consistently, so that if one replica of an object fails, or is being upgraded, another repl...

I summarize the arguments that strongly suggest that our universe is the product of inflation. The mechanisms that lead to eternal inflation in both new and chaotic models are described. Although the infinity of pocket universes produced by eternal inflation are unobservable, it is argued that eternal inflation has real consequences in terms of the way that predictions are extracted from theore...
