Proofs, Knowledge, and Computation
summary
Describes an interactive protocol that proves graph non‑isomorphism by the verifier choosing a random permutation of either G or H and the prover identifying which was permuted, showing IP captures statements beyond NP (IP = PSPACE mentioned); defines zero‑knowledge as convincing without leaking anything (example: prove knowledge of factors of n without revealing primes, usable as passwords); surveys interactive proofs (IP), zero-knowledge proofs, and SNARKs that produce phone‑verifiable, succinct proofs.
