Detailed Description

Recursive verifier of AVM2 proofs that utilizes the Goblin mechanism for efficient EC operations.

Recursive verification for AVM2 proofs proceeds in two phases: (1) recursive verification of the AVM2 proof in a Mega-arithmetized circuit C_M, and (2) recursive verification of the proof of C_M in an Ultra-arithmetized circuit C_U. This results in a protocol that overall is more efficient than direct recursive verification of the AVM2 proof in an Ultra circuit.

The proof of the Mega-arithmetized AVM2 recursive verifier circuit C_M is of the form {\pi_M, \pi_G}, where \pi_M is a MegaHonk proof and \pi_G is a GoblinAvm proof consisting of an ECCVM proof, an IPA proof, and a Translator proof. \pi_M establishes proper verification of the AVM2 proof up to the deferred EC operations, whose correctness is in turn established by \pi_G. Recursive verification of this component will stop short of full verification, resulting in an IPA claim that must be accumulated with other such claims before final verification later on (e.g. at the root). This is analogous to the aggregation of pairing point inputs for proving systems that use KZG, such as Ultra/MegaHonk.

The Ultra-arithmetized circuit C_U is responsible for recursive verification of {\pi_M, \pi_G}, i.e. it contains both a Mega and a GoblinAvm recursive verifier. The output of this recursive verification is a pairing check accumulator and an IPA claim accumulator. To ensure proper transfer of the AVM2 verifier inputs {\pi, pub_inputs}_{AVM2} between the Mega and Ultra circuits, we utilize a hash consistency check. The transcript of the AVM recursive verifier is used to generate a challenge h_M after the end of the verification algorithm. This challenge records the final state of the transcript, which hashed the proof and public inputs {\pi, pub_inputs}_{AVM2} used in C_M. The challenge h_M is propagated via the public inputs. Then, C_U computes the same challenge h_U independently and performs the check h_U = \pi_M.pub_inputs.h_M.

Note

The Mega circuit must be constrained to be a genuine AVM2 verifier circuit. This is done by fixing the VK(s) corresponding to proofs {\pi_M, \pi_G} to be circuit constants in C_U.
