A zero-knowledge proof (ZKP) is a powerful cryptographic primitive used in many
decentralized or privacy-focused applications. However, the high overhead of ZKPs can …

Zero-knowledge proofs are an essential building block in many privacy-preserving systems.
However, implementing these proofs is tedious and error-prone. In this paper, we present …

This dissertation presents a series of novel zero-knowledge proof (ZKP) protocols—Libra,
