fhe-study

Implementations from scratch done while studying some FHE papers; do not use in production.

• arith: contains \mathbb{Z}_q, R_q=\mathbb{Z}_q[X]/(X^N+1), R=\mathbb{Z}[X]/(X^N+1), \mathbb{T}_q[X]/(X^N +1) arithmetic implementations, together with the NTT implementation.
• gfhe: (gfhe=generalized-fhe) contains the structs and logic for RLWE, GLWE, GLev, GGSW, RGSW cryptosystems, and modulus switching and key switching methods, which can be used by concrete FHE schemes.

Example of usage

the repo is a work in progress, interfaces will change.

This example shows usage of TFHE, but the idea is that the same interface would work for using CKKS & BFV, the only thing to be changed would be the parameters and the usage of TLWE by CKKS or BFV.

let param = Param {
    err_sigma: crate::ERR_SIGMA,
    ring: RingParam { q: u64::MAX, n: 1 },
    k: 256,
    t: 128, // plaintext modulus
};

let mut rng = rand::thread_rng();
let msg_dist = Uniform::new(0_u64, param.t);

let (sk, pk) = TLWE::new_key(&mut rng, &param)?;

// get three random msgs in Rt
let m1 = Rq::rand_u64(&mut rng, msg_dist, &param.pt())?;
let m2 = Rq::rand_u64(&mut rng, msg_dist, &param.pt())?;
let m3 = Rq::rand_u64(&mut rng, msg_dist, &param.pt())?;

// encode the msgs into the plaintext space
let p1 = TLWE::encode(&param, &m1); // plaintext
let p2 = TLWE::encode(&param, &m2); // plaintext
let c3_const = TLWE::new_const(&param, &m3); // as constant/public value

// encrypt p1 and m2
let c1 = TLWE::encrypt(&mut rng, &param, &pk, &p1)?;
let c2 = TLWE::encrypt(&mut rng, &param, &pk, &p2)?;

// now we can do encrypted operations (notice that we do them using simple
// operation notation by rust's operator overloading):
let c_12 = c1 + c2;
let c4 = c_12 * c3_const;

// decrypt & decode
let p4_recovered = c4.decrypt(&sk);
let m4 = TLWE::decode(&param, &p4_recovered);

// m4 is equal to (m1+m2)*m3
assert_eq!(((m1 + m2).to_r() * m3.to_r()).to_rq(param.t), m4);
