How can we trust results computed by a third party, or the integrity of data stored by such a party? This is a classic question in systems security, and it is particularly relevant in the context of cloud computing.

Various solutions have been proposed that make assumptions about the class ... more >>>

We construct a delegation scheme for verifying non-deterministic computations, with complexity proportional only to the non-deterministic space of the computation. Specifi cally, letting $n$ denote the input length, we construct a delegation scheme for any language veri fiable in non-deterministic time and space $(T(n);S(n))$ with communication complexity $poly(S(n))$, verifi er ... more >>>

Modern cryptography relies on the intractability of computational problems. We present an approach to build cryptography from a new source of hardness: proving mathematical theorems.

Our main result is a construction of succinct non-interactive arguments (SNARGs) for NP under standard derandomization (prBPP = prP) and cryptographic assumptions (LWE and SXDH), ... more >>>
