About Me

A Phd student in Cryptography at Northwestern University, advised by Prof. Xiao Wang.
Before joining Northwestern, I obtained my bachelor's degree from the ACM Honors Class, Shanghai Jiao Tong University.
During my junior year, I worked as a student intern at LATTICE lab, advised by Prof. Yu Yu.

Research Interests

Zero-knowledge proof: succinct proof/argument system, application on privacy preserving credentials, rational cryptography etc.
Commitment scheme: mainly explore and improve it as a tool for constructing SNARK.

This work is done during my internship in Xiao's lab (in my senior year).
In this paper, we find a way to construct efficient ZKP by making the best of circuit parallelization.
We build a methodology compiler that can transform SIMD ZK into general one.
We also present some instansiation based on well-known protocols as well as concrete evaluation.
