Proof recursion is a cryptographic technique where a proof of computation can verify another proof. This method allows for the compression of multiple proofs into a single, compact proof. It significantly enhances the scalability of verifiable computations. The recursive structure enables efficient verification of extensive computational histories.
Context
In blockchain scaling discussions, proof recursion is a key innovation for improving transaction throughput and reducing verification costs. News about zero-knowledge proofs and rollup technologies frequently highlights the application of proof recursion. This technique permits off-chain computation to be verified on-chain with minimal resource expenditure.
