Axiom ZK Circuits

This repository builds on halo2-lib and snark-verifier to create a library of zero-knowledge proof circuits that Axiom uses to read data from the Ethereum virtual machine (EVM).

This monorepo consists of multiple crates:

axiom-eth

This is the main library of chips and frameworks for building ZK circuits that prove data from the Ethereum virtual machine (EVM). For more details, see the README.

axiom-core

This contains the ZK circuits that generate proofs for the AxiomV2Core smart contract. These circuits read the RLP encoded block headers for a chain of blocks and verify that the block headers form a chain. They output a Merkle Mountain Range of the block hashes of the chain. This crate also contains aggregation circuits to aggregate multiple circuits for the purpose of proving longer chains. For more details, see the README.

axiom-query

This contains the ZK circuits that generate proofs for the AxiomV2Query smart contract. For more details, see the README.

axiom-codec

This crate does not contain any ZK circuits, but it contains Rust types for Axiom queries and specifies how to encode/decode them to field elements for in-circuit use.
