Polynomial Composition

Definition

Polynomial Composition in cryptography refers to the process of combining multiple polynomials to create a new, more complex polynomial. This technique is frequently employed in constructing zero-knowledge proofs and other advanced cryptographic protocols. By composing polynomials, systems can efficiently represent and verify complex computations or statements. The properties of the resulting polynomial allow for compact and verifiable proofs of computation, enhancing the security and scalability of decentralized applications.
