SNARGs for P from Sub-exponential DDH and QR

James Hulett, Ruta Jawale, Dakshita Khurana, and Akshayaram Srinivasan

Abstract

We obtain publicly verifiable Succinct Non-Interactive Arguments (SNARGs) for arbitrary deterministic computations and bounded space non-deterministic computation from standard group-based assumptions, without relying on pairings. In particular, assuming the sub-exponential hardness of both the Decisional Diffie-Hellman (DDH) and Quadratic Residuosity (QR) assumptions, we obtain the following results, where $n$ denotes the length of the instance: 1. A SNARG for any language that can be decided in non-deterministic time $T$ and space $S$ with communication complexity and verifier runtime $(n + S) \cdot T^{o(1)}$. 2. A SNARG for any language that can be decided in deterministic time $T$ with communication complexity and verifier runtime $n \cdot T^{o(1)}$.
