Hafezi et al. in paper systematize the design of lookup table arguments, propose a unified framework covering various lookup types, and evaluate existing protocols in terms of proof cost, composability, etc. Hafezi等人在论文中系统化分析了查找表论证的设计,提出统一框架覆盖多种查找类型,并评估现有协议在证明成本、可组合性等方面的表现。
Notes
Lookup table arguments are widely used in non-interactive operations, zk-VM and set membership proofs
Existing constructions differ in assumptions, efficiency, and composability
Introduce a unified framework covering standard, projection, index, vector and decomposable lookups
Classify protocols based on proof technology and composition style
Evaluation metrics include prover cost, table size dependence, and recursive proof composability
Provide practical guidance on selection and highlight the advantages and limitations of preprocessing and decomposability
