Sublinear Proof Size is a desirable property of cryptographic proof systems where the size of the proof generated is smaller than linear with respect to the size of the computation being proven. This means that as the computation becomes larger, the proof size grows at a slower rate, such as logarithmically or as a constant. It is crucial for scalability in blockchain applications.
Context
Sublinear proof size is a key technical metric in the ongoing development of scalable blockchain solutions, particularly for zero-knowledge rollups and other Layer 2 technologies. News often highlights breakthroughs in cryptographic research that achieve smaller proof sizes, as this directly reduces on-chain verification costs and improves network throughput. This advancement is vital for broader adoption of decentralized systems.
