Low degree testing is a cryptographic technique used to verify the integrity of a polynomial by checking its values at a small, randomly selected set of points. This method efficiently determines with high probability if a given function is indeed a low-degree polynomial. It forms a crucial component in constructing efficient proof systems, particularly zero-knowledge proofs.
Context
In the realm of blockchain and digital assets, low degree testing is a foundational element for advanced scaling solutions and privacy protocols, such as zk-SNARKs and zk-STARKs. By enabling succinct verification of complex computations without revealing underlying data, it contributes to building more private and scalable decentralized applications. Its application enhances the efficiency and security of verifiable computation within trustless systems.
