Abstract

The hardness of the NTRU problem has not been well understood until 2021, when Pellet-Mary and Stehlé (2021) gave a reduction from the Gap-SVP problem on the ideal lattice to the NTRU-Search problem. Assuming the equivalence of the NTRU-Decision and the NTRU-Search problem, with this reduction together, we construct a leveled homomorphic encryption scheme. Compared to homomorphic schemes based on RLWE such as CKKS and BGV, the ciphertext of our scheme is a single polynomial. As a result, ciphertext multiplication involves only one multiplication of two polynomials, rather than the tensor multiplication of polynomial vectors as in BGV, CKKS schemes. In particular, by introducing a label, the ciphertext of our scheme does not need to be linearized after multiplication. This significantly accelerates the speed of homomorphic evaluation by reducing the number of polynomial multiplications from 6 to 1. Complexity analysis and experimental results indicate that the ciphertext multiplication in our scheme is approximately 4~5 times faster than CKKS and BFV schemes
