Abstract
Systems, methods, and computer-executable instructions for reducing amortized computational costs for a query that includes receiving at least two indexes for elements stored in an n-element database. The n-element database is encoded into at least three buckets. Each element is stored within at least two buckets. Each bucket stores a proper subset of the n-elements. For each of the two indexes, a bucket is determined to retrieve the element at the index. The determined buckets are queried to retrieve the elements. The elements at the indexes are retrieved based on the querying the determined buckets.
