Verifier-To-Verifier

Definition

Verifier-to-verifier refers to a specific interaction model within a cryptographic proof system where one verifier can delegate or pass on the task of verification to another verifier. This chain of verification allows for flexible distribution of computational load or hierarchical trust structures. It means that a proof accepted by an initial verifier can then be efficiently re-verified or passed along for further scrutiny by a subsequent verifier. This process can optimize resource utilization in complex systems.
