Arithmetization Overheads refer to the computational costs associated with converting a program’s execution into a form suitable for zero-knowledge proofs. This conversion involves expressing computations as polynomial equations or arithmetic circuits. The process introduces additional steps and resource consumption beyond the original computation. These overheads are a primary consideration in the practical deployment of zero-knowledge technologies.
Context
A significant challenge in zero-knowledge proof systems involves minimizing arithmetization overheads to improve efficiency. Researchers actively work on new proof systems and compilation techniques to lessen these costs. Reducing overheads is vital for making zero-knowledge proofs scalable and economically viable for widespread blockchain applications.
