Binyi Chen, a Stanford postdoctoral researcher, specializes in lattice-based folding schemes and SNARK research. He discusses the evolution of LatticeFold and LatticeFold+, and how replacing traditional hashes with Ajtai commitments enables post-quantum security. Binyi introduces his innovative work, Symphony, which simplifies recursive verification circuits and enhances efficiency. He explores the advantages of lattices over hash-based methods, the challenges of adapting folding to lattice structures, and potential future advancements in lattice SNARK technologies.
