In principle you could provide what's called a Probabilistically Checkable Proof. This would be a long string of bits, and a verifier would only have to sample 3 random bits to check the validity of the whole thing.

In practice we don't even make "normal" machine checkable proofs. They are just too much work. Maybe in the future when the machines are better at understanding us.
