Inner Product Argument

Definition

An Inner Product Argument is a cryptographic proof system that allows a prover to convince a verifier about the correct computation of an inner product. This method is used to construct zero-knowledge proofs, enabling verification of computations without disclosing the underlying data. It is a fundamental component in many advanced privacy-preserving protocols and scaling solutions for blockchains. This argument significantly reduces proof size and verification time, enhancing efficiency.
