Machine Checked Proofs are mathematical or logical proofs that have been verified for correctness by a computer program. Unlike human-checked proofs, machine checked proofs offer an extremely high degree of certainty regarding their validity. They eliminate the possibility of human error in complex logical deductions. These proofs are fundamental for assuring the reliability of critical systems.
Context
Machine checked proofs are increasingly applied in the development of secure blockchain protocols and smart contracts, especially in areas demanding absolute assurance. News occasionally mentions the use of formal verification tools to produce these proofs for critical components of new digital asset platforms. The adoption of such proofs aims to significantly reduce the risk of exploits and vulnerabilities in high-value decentralized applications.
Mechanized formalization of MEV using the Lean theorem prover provides machine-checked proofs of extraction bounds, fundamentally securing DeFi protocol logic.
