Soundness of answer reduction: the PCP's soundness #
Piece AR-5e of planning/answer-reduction.md, concluded (lem:ar-ora): the hypothesis
PcpSound of SoundDecoded holds for the answer-reduced verifier's game check, with the decoder
decAns, which reads a polynomial's Boolean values as the answer vector of a short answer.
An outcome f of the extracted J carries a PCP proof (pcpOf): its five answer polynomials
are f's first five components read on their blocks, its constraint polynomials are the rest.
When f is placed on its blocks, the evaluations the game check reads are that proof's
(eval_ofProof_pcpOf), so the check accepting at more than half the points is the PCP verifier
accepting the proof there, and the PCP decider's soundness (SAT.PcpDecider.soundness) decodes
the proof's first two answer polynomials to answers the input decider accepts. Those answers are
at most inAns long, since the input decider rejects longer ones, and the answer vector
determines a short answer (SAT.answerVec_injective), so they are what decAns returns.
The decoder #
The decoder: the answer of length at most B' whose answer vector a polynomial's Boolean
values are, where there is one.
Equations
- One or more equations did not get rendered due to their size.
Instances For
The decoder returns the answer a polynomial encodes, when answers of length B' fit in
the first half of the 2^m positions.
The PCP proof an outcome carries #
The PCP proof an outcome of J carries: its first five components read on their blocks,
then the remaining m' + 1 as the constraint polynomials.
Equations
Instances For
The evaluations of a placed outcome are its proof's: the sixth copy's data built from the proof evaluates as the outcome does.
The PCP's soundness, for the answer-reduced verifier #
The PCP's soundness, as the decoded strategy needs it, for the answer-reduced verifier's
game check and the decoder decAns.
The input verifier's value from a projective strategy for the answer-reduced typed game,
in a bipartite model where the low-individual-degree test is sound and a value model where
oracularization is sound that dominates it: at least 1 - 24 √(7 errD), errD the combined error
of the strategy's analysis.
