This paper introduces a formal framework for analyzing atomic composability in multi-rollup environments on Ethereum. As the blockchain ecosystem evolves towards a multi-rollup future, ensuring atomic execution of cross-rollup transactions becomes increasingly critical. We present a mathematical model that formally defines atomic composability in this context and establish necessary conditions for achieving it across different rollup systems.
Our work makes several key contributions:
- A formal definition of universal atomic composability for multi-rollup environments
- A mathematical framework for analyzing cross-rollup transaction properties
- Proof of necessary and sufficient conditions for atomic execution
- Analysis of existing cross-rollup protocols against our formal model
The findings have important implications for the design of cross-rollup bridges and protocols, suggesting new approaches for achieving robust composability in the growing rollup ecosystem.
