Topic: The Adoption of Blockchain-Based Decentralized Exchanges Abstract: We investigate the market microstructure of Automated Market Makers (AMMs), the most prominent type of blockchain-based decentralized... ...

This paper studies how transaction fees and seigniorage, equivalent to inflation in the cryptocurrency setting, affect miner incentives and trade congestion. Each cryptocurrency miner chooses how many new transactions to group into the next block of transactions that the miner competes to validate. The successful miner earns (i) transaction fees... ...

In STARK-like zero -knowledge proofs, like those of the Starware company, the major algorithmic and mathematical breakthrough which enables such great performance in applications is the invention of very efficient "low degree test" of univariate polynomials. Our work enables to perform such low degree test for multivariate polynomials, with the... ...

One of the main obstacles to the deployment of blockchains is the fact that the data managed on a blockchain is publicly accessible. This is unthinkable in the health or banking sectors, for example. Zero-knowledge technologies can resolve precisely this contradiction. These technologies can be implemented either by deploying a ...
