Popis: 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 is an $f$-resilient implementation of such objects from registers with $n$ processes $f<\frac{n}{2}$.
Comment: This version includes appendix that was missing in the previous one
