Boolean Hypercube Arithmetization

Definition

Boolean hypercube arithmetization transforms a logical statement into a polynomial expression over a finite field. This technique converts a computation represented as a circuit over Boolean values into a polynomial constraint system. It maps each variable in the Boolean hypercube, a space where coordinates are either 0 or 1, to a field element, enabling algebraic manipulation. This process is fundamental in constructing zero-knowledge proofs, allowing for efficient verification of computations without revealing the underlying data.
