讲座内容:
This talk focuses on our recent research on blockchain with selfish mining alliances, which can be established as multi-dimensional pyramid-type Markov processes by means of the longest chain rule of chain-fork structure. We address several interesting issues or topics related to multi-dimensional pyramid-type Markov processes. This further sets up mathematical models and develops economic theory of blockchain. Here, we shall care for:
(1)How to study the multi-dimensional pyramid-type Markov processes, for example, stable conditions, steady-state probability, first passage time, sojourn time and so forth. Perhaps the pyramid-type Markov processes bring you to enter a queer theoretical space from such an interesting practical technology.
(2)Block reward, transaction fee and their allocation methods greatly motivate many miners in a blockchain to take shape some selfish mining alliances evolutionarily, while the selfish mining alliances will lead to various attacks on security of blockchain. As a first exploration, we provide a unified and comprehensive framework for expressing the attacks grown out of the selfish mining alliances, a physical structure of which is given a detailed observation and interpretation in terms of the pyramid-type Markov processes. This may be viewed as a key improvement in the study of blockchain mining processes. In fact, our method can be developed to analyze blochchain systems through some simple and intuitive applications of Markov decision processes and stochastic game modeling under the pyramid-type setting.
(3)We show that the pyramid-type Markov processes will play an important role in the study of blockchain systems and in the design of consensus mechanism of related distributed systems.
