Abstract

We propose a Pairing-based Polynomial Consistency Protocol (PPCP) that verifies the equivalence of polynomial commitments generated under different basis representations, such as the coefficient and Lagrange bases. By leveraging pairing relations, PPCP proves that two commitments correspond to an identical underlying polynomial vector without revealing the polynomial itself. This enables efficient proof aggregation and recursive composition across heterogeneous SNARK systems that adopt distinct polynomial encodings.
