fhe-study

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

• arith: contains $\mathbb{Z}_q$, $R_q=\mathbb{Z}_q/(X^N+1)$, $R=\mathbb{Z}/(X^N+1)$, $\mathbb{T}_Q/(X^N +1)$ 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.
• bfv: https://eprint.iacr.org/2012/144.pdf scheme implementation
• ckks: https://eprint.iacr.org/2016/421.pdf scheme implementation
• tfhe: https://eprint.iacr.org/2018/421.pdf scheme implementation

cargo test --release

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 line type S = TWLE<K> to use CKKS<Q, N> or BFV<Q, N, T>.

const T: u64 = 128; // msg space (msg modulus)
type M = Rq<T, 1>; // msg space
type S = TLWE<256>;

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

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

// get two random msgs in Z_t
let m1 = M::rand_u64(&mut rng, msg_dist)?;
let m2 = M::rand_u64(&mut rng, msg_dist)?;
let m3 = M::rand_u64(&mut rng, msg_dist)?;

// encode the msgs into the plaintext space
let p1 = S::encode::<T>(&m1); // plaintext
let p2 = S::encode::<T>(&m2); // plaintext
let c3_const: Tn<1> = Tn(array::from_fn(|i| T64(m3.coeffs()[i].0))); // encode it as constant value

let c1 = S::encrypt(&mut rng, &pk, &p1)?;
let c2 = S::encrypt(&mut rng, &pk, &p2)?;

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

// decrypt & decode
let p4_recovered = c4.decrypt(&sk);
let m4 = S::decode::<T>(&p4_recovered);

// m4 is equal to (m1+m2)*m3
