Tame the Wild with Byzantine Linearizability: Reliable Broadcast, Snapshots, and Asset Transfer

Abstract

We formalize Byzantine linearizability, a correctness condition that specifies whether a concurrent object with a sequential specification is resilient against Byzantine failures. Using this definition, we systematically study Byzantine-tolerant emulations of various objects from registers. We focus on three useful objects- reliable broadcast, atomic snapshot, and asset transfer. We prove that there exist n-process f-resilient Byzantine linearizable implementations of such objects from registers if and only if f < n/2.
