This is the third and penultimate post in a series about theoretical weaknesses in Fiat-Shamir as applied to proof systems. The first post is here, the second post is here, and you should probably …| A Few Thoughts on Cryptographic Engineering
This is the second part of a two three-part series, which covers some recent results on “verifiable computation” and possible pitfalls that could occur there. This post won’t make…| A Few Thoughts on Cryptographic Engineering
I’m supposed to be finishing a wonky series on proof systems (here and here) and I promise I will do that this week. In the midst of this I’ve been a bit distracted by world events. Las…| A Few Thoughts on Cryptographic Engineering
