Verifiable and provably secure machine unlearning
Machine unlearning aims to remove points from the training dataset of a machine learning
model after training; for example when a user requests their data to be deleted. While many …

Shorter and faster post-quantum designated-verifier zkSNARKs from lattices
Zero-knowledge succinct arguments of knowledge (zkSNARKs) enable efficient privacy-
preserving proofs of membership for general NP languages. Our focus in this work is on post …

Fiat-Shamir security of FRI and related snarks
We establish new results on the Fiat-Shamir (FS) security of several protocols that are widely
used in practice, and we provide general tools for establishing similar results for others …

Sumcheck arguments and their applications
We introduce a class of interactive protocols, which we call sumcheck arguments, that
establishes a novel connection between the sumcheck protocol (Lund et al. JACM 1992) …

Halo infinite: Recursive zk-snarks from any additive polynomial commitment scheme
Polynomial commitment schemes (PCS) have recently been in the spotlight for their key role
in building SNARKs. A PCS provides the ability to commit to a polynomial over a finite field …

Succinct zero knowledge for floating point computations
We study the problem of constructing succinct zero knowledge proof systems for floating
point computations. The standard approach to handle floating point computations requires …

An algebraic framework for universal and updatable SNARKs
C Ràfols, A Zapico - Annual International Cryptology Conference, 2021 - Springer
Abstract We introduce Checkable Subspace Sampling Arguments, a new information
theoretic interactive proof system in which the prover shows that a vector has been sampled …

Riggs: Decentralized sealed-bid auctions
We introduce the first practical protocols for fully decentralized sealed-bid auctions using
timed commitments. Timed commitments ensure that the auction is finalized fairly even if all …

The locality of memory checking
Motivated by the extended deployment of authenticated data structures (eg, Merkle Patricia
Tries) for verifying massive amounts of data in blockchain systems, we begin a systematic …

Bulletproofs+: shorter proofs for a privacy-enhanced distributed ledger
This paper presents a new short zero-knowledge argument for the range proof and
arithmetic circuits without a trusted setup. In particular, it can achieve the shortest proof size …
