## Object validity
### Shard blocks
Let:
* `beacon_blocks` be the `BeaconBlock` list such that `beacon_blocks[slot]` is the canonical `BeaconBlock` at slot `slot`
* `beacon_state` be the canonical `BeaconState` after processing `beacon_blocks[-1]`
* `valid_shard_blocks` be the list of valid `ShardBlock`, recursively defined
* `candidate` be a candidate `ShardBlock` for which validity is to be determined by running `is_valid_shard_block`
```python
def is_valid_shard_block(beacon_blocks: Sequence[BeaconBlock],
beacon_state: BeaconState,
valid_shard_blocks: Sequence[ShardBlock],
candidate: ShardBlock) -> bool:
# Check if block is already determined valid
for _, block in enumerate(valid_shard_blocks):
if candidate == block:
return True
# Check slot number
assert candidate.slot >= PHASE_1_FORK_SLOT
# Check shard number
assert candidate.shard <= SHARD_COUNT
# Check beacon block
beacon_block = beacon_blocks[candidate.slot]
assert candidate.beacon_block_root == signing_root(beacon_block)
assert beacon_block.slot <= candidate.slot
# Check state root
assert candidate.state_root == ZERO_HASH # [to be removed in phase 2]
# Check parent block
if candidate.slot == PHASE_1_FORK_SLOT:
assert candidate.parent_root == ZERO_HASH
else:

# Check attestations

for _, attestation in enumerate(candidate.attestations):
assert max(GENESIS_SHARD_SLOT, candidate.slot - SLOTS_PER_EPOCH) <= attestation.data.slot
assert attestation.data.slot <= candidate.slot - MIN_ATTESTATION_INCLUSION_DELAY
assert attestation.data.crosslink.shard == candidate.shard
verify_shard_attestation_signature(beacon_state, attestation)
# Check signature
proposer_index = get_shard_proposer_index(beacon_state, candidate.shard, candidate.slot)
assert proposer_index is not None
assert bls_verify(
pubkey=beacon_state.validators[proposer_index].pubkey,
message_hash=signing_root(candidate),
signature=candidate.signature,
domain=get_domain(beacon_state, DOMAIN_SHARD_PROPOSER, slot_to_epoch(candidate.slot)),
)
return True
```
### Shard attestations
Let:
* `valid_shard_blocks` be the list of valid `ShardBlock`
* `beacon_state` be the canonical `BeaconState`
* `candidate` be a candidate `ShardAttestation` for which validity is to be determined by running `is_valid_shard_attestation`
```python
def is_valid_shard_attestation(valid_shard_blocks: Sequence[ShardBlock],
beacon_state: BeaconState,
candidate: ShardAttestation) -> bool:
# Check shard block
shard_block = next(
(block for block in valid_shard_blocks if signing_root(block) == candidate.data.shard_block_root),
None,
)
assert shard_block is not None
assert shard_block.slot == candidate.data.slot
assert shard_block.shard == candidate.data.shard
# Check signature
verify_shard_attestation_signature(beacon_state, candidate)
return True
```
### Beacon attestations
Let:
* `shard` be a valid `Shard`
* `shard_blocks` be the `ShardBlock` list such that `shard_blocks[slot]` is the canonical `ShardBlock` for shard `shard` at slot `slot`
* `beacon_state` be the canonical `BeaconState`
* `valid_attestations` be the set of valid `Attestation` objects, recursively defined
* `candidate` be a candidate `Attestation` which is valid under Phase 0 rules, and for which validity is to be determined under Phase 1 rules by running `is_valid_beacon_attestation`
```python
def is_valid_beacon_attestation(shard: Shard,
shard_blocks: Sequence[ShardBlock],
beacon_state: BeaconState,
valid_attestations: Set[Attestation],
candidate: Attestation) -> bool:
# Check if attestation is already determined valid
for attestation in valid_attestations:
if candidate == attestation:
return True
# Check previous attestation
if candidate.data.previous_crosslink.epoch <= PHASE_1_FORK_EPOCH:
assert candidate.data.previous_crosslink.data_root == ZERO_HASH
else:
previous_attestation = next(
(attestation for attestation in valid_attestations if
attestation.data.crosslink.data_root == candidate.data.previous_crosslink.data_root),
None,
)
assert previous_attestation is not None
assert candidate.data.previous_attestation.epoch < slot_to_epoch(candidate.data.slot)
# Check crosslink data root
start_epoch = beacon_state.crosslinks[shard].epoch
end_epoch = min(slot_to_epoch(candidate.data.slot) - CROSSLINK_LOOKBACK, start_epoch + MAX_EPOCHS_PER_CROSSLINK)
blocks = []
for slot in range(start_epoch * SLOTS_PER_EPOCH, end_epoch * SLOTS_PER_EPOCH):
blocks.append(shard_blocks[slot])
assert candidate.data.crosslink.data_root == compute_crosslink_data_root(blocks)
return True
```
## Shard fork choice rule
The fork choice rule for any shard is LMD GHOST using the shard attestations of the persistent committee and the beacon chain attestations of the crosslink committee currently assigned to that shard, but instead of being rooted in the genesis it is rooted in the block referenced in the most recent accepted crosslink (i.e. `state.crosslinks[shard].shard_block_root`). Only blocks whose `beacon_chain_root` is the block in the main beacon chain at the specified `slot` should be considered. (If the beacon chain skips a slot, then the block at that slot is considered to be the block in the beacon chain at the highest slot lower than that slot.)
