ronkathon

Overview

Ronkathon is a collection of cryptographic primitives implemented in Rust. It is inspired by the python plonkathon repository and plonk-by-hand. We use the same curve and field as plonk-by-hand (which is not secure) and the goal of this repository is to work towards building everything from scratch to understand everything from first principles.

Multivariate polynomials and sum-check

This project implements the sum-check protocol for multivariate polynomials over finite fields. The sum-check protocol is an interactive proof system where a prover convinces a verifier of the sum of a multivariate polynomial over a boolean hypercube. This implementation includes:

  • A MultiVarPolynomial struct which represents a multivariate polynomial
  • A SumCheckProver for generating proofs
  • A SumCheckVerifier for verifying proofs
  • A SumCheck struct that encapsulates the entire protocol.

You can use:

cargo run --example sumcheck_ex

to run example code.

Resources

We have found the following resources helpful in understanding the foundational mathematics behind this implementation. After going through these, you should be able to understand the codebase

Math

To see computations used in the background, go to the math/ directory. From there, you can run the .sage files in a SageMath environment. In particular, the math/field.sage computes roots of unity in the PlutoField which is of size 101. To install sage on your machine, follow the instructions here. If you are on a Mac, you can install it via homebrew with brew install --cask sage.
