Definition ∞ Sublinear Prover Complexity is a property of zero-knowledge proof systems where the computational effort required by the prover to generate a proof grows at a rate slower than linear with respect to the size of the computation being proven. This characteristic indicates exceptional efficiency for very large computations. It makes complex proofs more feasible.
Context ∞ Sublinear prover complexity is a highly sought-after characteristic in cryptographic research, as it makes zero-knowledge proofs more practical for scaling blockchain networks and enhancing privacy. Continued advancements in this area are vital for the widespread adoption of ZK-rollups and similar technologies. News frequently reports on new proof constructions achieving better prover complexity.
