“…The case of maximum distance separable (MDS) coded servers was considered in [11], [12], while the case of arbitrary linear coded servers was studied in [13]- [15]. The concept of PIR has also been extended to several other relevant scenarios, which include colluding servers [11], [13], [15]- [19], robust PIR [16], PIR with Byzantine servers [20], optimal upload cost of PIR, i.e., the minimum required amount of query information [21], access complexity of PIR, i.e., the number of symbols accessed across all servers for the retrieval of a single file [22], single-server PIR with private side information [23], PIR on graph-based replication systems [24], PIR with secure storage [25], functional PIR codes [26], and private proximity retrieval codes [27].…”
