Title:
Arithmetisation of computation via polynomial semantics for first-order logic

Authors: Murdoch J. Gabbay

Abstract:

We propose a compositional shallow translation from a first-order logic with equality, into polynomials; that is, we arithmetise the semantics of first-order logic. Using this, we can translate specifications of mathematically structured programming into polynomials, in a form amenable to succinct cryptographic verification.

We give worked example applications, and we propose a proof-of-concept succinct verification scheme based on inner product arguments.
