Groth-Sahai Wrappers

A Rust library containing wrappers that facilitate the construction of non-interactive witness-indistinguishable and zero-knowledge proofs about various equations over bilinear groups [1]. See the corresponding Groth-Sahai library for more details about how Groth-Sahai has been implemented.

This library is distributed under the MIT License and the Apache v2 License (see License).

⚠ Disclaimer ⚠

  • This library, including many dependencies it relies on, are academic proof-of-concepts only that have NOT been thoroughly reviewed for production use. Do NOT use this implementation in production code.
  • Your choice of bilinear group (G1, G2, GT, e) MUST be secure under the SXDH assumption, must be equipped with a Type-III pairing, and must be implemented in Arkworks. For example, Bls12_381 is amenable to this implementation.

Getting Started

Installation

First, install the latest version of Rust using rustup:

rustup install stable

After that, use Rust's cargo to compile the library:

git clone https://github.com/jdwhite88/groth-sahai-wrappers.git
cd groth-sahai-wrappers
cargo build

Test

To run the unit tests (in each source file) and integration tests (in tests):

cargo test

To run the benchmark tests (in benches):

cargo bench

Supported Wrappers

  • Groth16 -- For constructing variants of GS-over-Groth16 proofs, given a Proof and other components of the zk-SNARK's circuit [3].

Dependencies

  • Groth-Sahai - An implementation of the Groth-Sahai proof system in Rust.
  • Arkworks - A Rust ecosystem for developing and programming with zkSNARKs as well as finite field and elliptic curve arithmetic.

Contributing

If you notice a bug, would like to ask a question, or want to propose a new wrapper, feel free to open an issue!

If you would like to contribute, but have not been invited as a direct collaborator to the project, follow the procedure below (keeping in mind these instructions if you are attempting to resolve an open issue):

  1. Fork the project
  2. Create your feature branch (git checkout -b feature-branch main)
  3. Commit your changes (git commit -m 'Resolves #i; commit message')
  4. Push to the branch (git push origin feature-branch)
  5. Open a pull request to merge with this repo (preferably linked to an issue)
