Title:
Boomy: Batch Opening Of Multivariate polYnomial commitment

Authors: Thomas Lavaur, Jérôme Lacan

Abstract:

We present Boomy, a multivariate polynomial commitment scheme enabling the proof of the evaluation of multiple points: batch openings. Boomy is the natural extension of two popular protocols: the univariate polynomial commitment scheme of Kate, Zaverucha and Goldberg \cite{AC:KatZavGol10} and its multivariate counterpart from Papamanthou, Shi and Tamassia \cite{TCC:PapShiTam13}. In the special case of univariate, i.e., for only one evaluation point, Boomy matches these two previous schemes. Our construction is proven secure under the selective security model. In this paper, we present Boomy’s complexity and the applications on which it can have a significant impact. In fact, Boomy is perfectly suited to tackling blockchain data availability problems, shrinking existing challenges. We also present special lower-complexity cases that occur frequently in practical situations.
