Zero-Knowledge Proofs for Large Circuits
Zero-Knowledge Proofs for Large Circuits
While succinct zero-knowledge protocols have long been in the spotlight of researchers due to Blockchain applications, this talk will give a look at the fascinating world of non-succinct protocols and their applications. The speaker will discuss Mac'n'Cheese zero-knowledge protocol (https://eprint.iacr.org/2020/1410 & CRYPTO 2021, with Alex Malozemoff, Marc Rosen and Peter Scholl) as well as the recent A2B protocol for efficient domain-switching between different ZK proof systems (https://eprint.iacr.org/2021/750, with Lennart Braun, Alexander Munch-Hansen and Peter Scholl).
