Lessons from integrating LogUp-GKR in the Miden VM
Duration: 00:23:12
Speaker: Philippe Laferriere
Type: Talk
Expertise: Expert
Event: Devcon
Date: Nov 2024
In this talk we will describe how to modify the STARK protocol to prove multiset checks using the GKR protocol. We will take a deep dive of the approach we’ve taken to implement it in the Miden VM, covering the benefits and challenges we've experienced.

Keynote: Programmable Cryptography and Ethereum
Programmable Cryptography is a "second generation" of cryptographic primitives - primitives that allow arbitrary programs to be executed "inside of" or "on top of" cryptographic objects. Programmable cryptography provides three key affordances that complement and amplify the affordances of Ethereum--verifiability, confidentiality, and non-interactivity. We'll discuss how these technologies can reshape the Internet over the next 50 years.

Keynote: The Universal Cryptographic Adapter
The "secret" third affordance of Zero-Knowledge proof after 1) Privacy and 2) Succinctness is Interoperability. ZK enables us to continuously refactor data, aggregate it from different sources, and transforming it without loosing its integrity. Starting with the Zupass project, and now with the broader adoption of the POD and GPC format, 0xPARC has been exploring using ZK for data sovereignty and creating more interoperable data ecosystem. We will cover our learnings and progress in this talk.

Non-Native Arithmetic via CRT Codes
Non-native arithmetic is an important and costly operation in SNARKs. It is essential for proving validity of general cryptographic data like RSA signatures, non-native elliptic curve arithmetic like secp256r1, and general SNARK proof composition. We investigate a new approach to prove non-native integer arithmetic using Residue Number Systems and a batch proximity test for Chinese Remainder Theorem (CRT) codes, as well as surprising connections to STARK soundness.

Clookup - Composite Function based Lookup Argument
Presenting Clookup, a novel lookup protocol that enhances efficiency in verifiable computations. By using a composite function approach and multivariate polynomials within the sumcheck protocol, Clookup achieves optimal time complexity \(O(m(m+n))\) when processing \(2^m\) witness elements against a \(2^n\) table. This method eliminates the need to compute coefficient forms of composite functions.

Little Things We've learned About FHE
Recently, at PSE, we have been exploring the field of cryptography, specifically focusing on Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE). FHE enables secure interactions with encrypted data between different parties. In this presentation, we will introduce key concepts and essential information tailored for developers and application designers. This will help them quickly grasp the fundamentals without getting bogged down by complex mathematical details.

MPC Tooling or How to create MPC apps
Let's get into the state of the art of MPC development: we'll discuss different MPC schemes, current MPC tooling & how you can create MPC apps today. We'll cover the tech stack from a frontend level (e.g. MPC compilers) to a backend - and of course how we can combine them.

Circom buses: a new journey
Circom is one of the most widely used languages in programmable cryptography. In this talk we present an amazing new circom feature, called buses. Like structs in other languages, programmers can define their own buses, as new types, in a general way to create structured collections of signals and freely use them in their code. Buses increase the readability, modularity and security of circuits. Illustrative examples as well as the renewed circomlib, using buses, are presented.

Folding STARKs with the Mova folding scheme
We will present a new folding scheme that is 5 to 10 times more efficient than Nova, and 2.5 to 4 times more efficient than Hypernova. We will then explain how to use the scheme so as to construct a folding scheme for STARK proofs.
