Description
This PR adds the method
commit_sparse
to the KZG10 module. Its API is equivalent to the one ofcommit
but accepts sparse polynomials instead of dense polynomials.This optimisation allows to replace the MSM by a naive version, which in the case of sparse polynomials such as X^n - 1, X - alpha etc. is order of magnitudes faster. This can significantly reduce verifier time.
Important note: this PR can only be merged after the merge of arkworks-rs/algebra#1035.
Results from a quick benchmark, where the verifier checks if
e(comm, h) = e(comm, h)
for some point h from the SRS:closes: #169
Before we can merge this PR, please make sure that all the following items have been
