Cryptographic interactive proof systems provide an efficient and scalable means of verifying the results of computation on blockchain. A prover constructs a proof, off-chain, that the execution of a program on a given input terminates with a certain result. The prover then publishes a certificate that can be verified efficiently and reliably modulo commonly accepted cryptographic assumptions. The method relies on an algebraic encoding of execution traces of programs. Here we report on a verification of the correctness of such an encoding of the Cairo model of computation with respect to the STARK interactive proof system, using the Lean 3 proof assistant.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
