Abstract
The use of noise as a powerful ally of cryptographers for bit commitment and oblivious transfer in computer networks was analyzed. The optimal use of discrete memoryless channels by commiting to a set of strings was also analyzed. Noise less communication could be possible by using a certain number number of invocations of aa coin tossing protocol. The result shows an interesting separation between coin tossing and cryptographic primitives.
