TFHE Deep Dive — Part I - Ciphertext Types

TFHE is a Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) scheme. That means it is an encryption scheme that allows you to perform computations over encrypted data. To know more about FHE schemes in general, take a look at this blog post.

TFHE was initially proposed as an improvement of the scheme FHEW, and then it started developing in a broader direction. The security of the scheme is based on a hard lattice problem called Learning With Errors, or LWE in short, and its variants, such as Ring LWE (RLWE). In fact, the majority of FHE schemes used nowadays are LWE based and use noisy ciphertexts. TFHE is, however, distinguished from the others because it proposes a special bootstrapping which is very fast and able to evaluate a function at the same time as it reduces the noise.
