- Abstract: In this work, we propose an error-free, information-theoretically secure multi-valued asynchronous Byzantine agreement (ABA) protocol, called OciorABA. This protocol achieves ABA consensus on an $\ell$-bit message with an expected communication complexity of $O(n\ell + n^3 \log q )$ bits and an expected round complexity of $O(1)$ rounds, under the optimal resilience condition $n \geq 3t + 1$ in an $n$-node network, where up to $t$ nodes may be dishonest. Here, $q$ denotes the alphabet size of the error correction code used in the protocol. In our protocol design, we introduce a new primitive: asynchronous partial vector agreement (APVA). In APVA, the distributed nodes input their vectors and aim to output a common vector, where some of the elements of those vectors may be missing or unknown. We propose an APVA protocol with an expected communication complexity of $O( n^3 \log q )$ bits and an expected round complexity of $O(1)$ rounds. This APVA protocol serves as a key building block for our OciorABA protocol.

We present a novel reduction from multivalued BA to binary BA.
As our reduction uses multivalued WA, we design two new efficient WA protocols for $ell$-bit inputs.
Our WA protocols extend binary BA to multivalued BA with a constant round overhead, a quadratic-in-$n$ communication overhead, and near-optimal security.

We consider an asynchronous network of $n$ message-sending parties, up to $t$ of which are byzantine.
We study approximate agreement, where the parties obtain approximately equal outputs in the convex hull of their inputs.
This takes $Theta(n2)$ messages per reliable broadcast, or $Theta(n3)$ messages per iteration.

In graph-based binary learning, a subset of known labels $hatx_i$ are used to infer unknown labels.
When restricting labels $x_i$ to binary values, the problem is NP-hard.
We propose a fast projection-free method by solving a sequence of linear programs (LP) instead.
