Formal MEV Theory Enables Provable Security against Transaction Reordering Attacks
A formal, abstract MEV theory rigorously defines adversarial gain via knowledge axiomatization, enabling proofs of smart contract security.
Concurrent Proposers and Conditional Tips Enforce Economic Censorship Resistance
Introducing conditional tips across concurrent block proposers creates a mechanism design solution, establishing a Proposer's Dilemma to enforce timely transaction inclusion.
Decoupling Transaction Ordering from Execution Is the Key to Systemic MEV Mitigation
A new Decoupled Execution and Ordering framework enforces fair sequencing by committing to order before content is visible, neutralizing predatory MEV.
Formalizing MEV with Adversarial Knowledge Enables Provable Security
This abstract model defines Maximal Extractable Value via adversarial knowledge, providing the foundational theory for provable security against economic attacks.
Differential Privacy Enables Provably Fair Transaction Ordering
Establishing a formal link between Differential Privacy and State Machine Replication's equal opportunity property quantifiably eliminates algorithmic bias in ordering.
Set Byzantine Consensus Decentralizes Rollup Sequencers and Data Availability
Set Byzantine Consensus introduces a decentralized "arranger" for rollups, fundamentally solving the single-node sequencer bottleneck and enhancing censorship resistance.
Threshold Encryption Enables Provably Fair Transaction Ordering Minimizing MEV
Integrating threshold encryption into the mempool decouples transaction submission from ordering, structurally eliminating frontrunning and centralizing MEV.
DAG Consensus Introduces Novel Frontrunning Attacks Requiring Architecture-Specific Mitigation
The analysis of DAG-based systems reveals three new frontrunning attack vectors, proving high-throughput architectures introduce complex, unmitigated MEV risk.
Optimal Latency Consensus Achieves $2delta$ Communication by Eliminating Inter-Replica Messaging
A new consensus notion, Pod, eliminates inter-replica communication to achieve physically optimal $2delta$ latency, unlocking ultra-fast, censorship-resistant distributed applications.
