Logarithmic Verifier Time

Definition

Logarithmic verifier time refers to a property of certain cryptographic proofs, particularly zero-knowledge proofs, where the time required to verify the proof grows logarithmically with the size of the computation it verifies. This means that even for extremely large computations, the verification process remains very efficient. This characteristic is highly advantageous for scalability and privacy in blockchain applications. It enables rapid validation of complex operations.
