Arithmetization of Σ¹₁ relations in Halo 2

Morgan Thomas, Orbis Labs
Abstract

Orbis Labs presents a method for compiling (“arithmetizing”) relations, expressed as Σ¹₁ formulas in the language of rings, into Halo 2 arithmetic circuits. This method offers the possibility of creating arithmetic circuits without laborious and error-prone manual circuit design and implementation, by instead expressing the relation to be arithmetized in a concise mathematical notation and generating the circuit based on that expression.
