Gaussian distribution propoprties
Good day,
I've a question regarding Gaussian distribution properties over lattices :
Let $\mathcal{L}$ := $ \mathcal{L}(\,b_{1}$,..., $b_{m})$ be a lattice over $\mathbb{R}^{n}$, and $W$ = span($b_{1}$...

Introducing differential privacy in two different ways
I would like to investigate if it is possible to introduce Differential Privacy (DP) to a model via both adding Laplacian noise to the training data and then training with DP-SGD updates. Is it a ...

Why predicting an error in Crystal Kyber is considered to be hard?
Hi I have started studying on crystal kyber recently. Gained some knowledge regarding its algorithm and how it works. My doubt is why it is tough for attacker to extract secret vector from pk itself ...

The sum of independent discrete Gaussians is a discrete Gaussian
I am currently learning about lattice-based cryptography and, reading from A Decade of Lattice Cryptography by Peikert, specifically section 2.3, it emerges that
[...] if the parameter s is greater or ...

How to choose the large noise when using noise flooding technique in FHE?
In LWE based multi party FHE schemes, the parties should choose a much larger noise when perform joint decryption. In this paper, the author just said that using noise flooding technique to avoid the ...

Errors for $\mathsf{LWE}$
Why do we take Gaussian-like errors in $\mathsf{LWE}$?
Why for example we don't take uniform errors?

A smaller modulus-to-noise ratio means more security in LWE
Let $\text{Adv}^{\text{DLWE}}_{n,m,q,\sigma}$ be the advantage of an attacker to distinguish LWE samples from uniform ones, where $m$ is the number of samples, $q$ the modulus and $\sigma$ the ...

How is it legal to use a rounded Gaussian for LWE?
As far as I understood, in Regev's initial paper, the error distribution was first constructed as follows:
Then rounded in the following way:
Using this distribution, the reduction in the theorem ...

Is the error distribution in Learning with Errors (LWE), the discrete Gaussian distribution?
In $\mathbb{Z}$, the discrete Gaussian distribution is defined as $D_{Z,s}(x) = \frac{\rho_s(x)}{\rho_s(\mathbb{Z})}, x\in \mathbb{Z}$.
In LWE, $(\overrightarrow{a}, b = \langle \overrightarrow{a}, \...

Is the discretization of the Guassian distribution on torus still a discrete Gaussian distribution?
Let $\rho_s(x) = e^{-\pi x^2/s^2}$ be the Gaussian measures, then the discrete Gaussian distribution on $\mathbb{Z}$ could be defined as $D_{\mathbb{Z},s}(x) = \rho_s(x)/\sum_{n\in \mathbb{Z}}\rho_s(n)...

How small can the error be in LWE?
For modulus $Q$ and stddev $\sigma$, [GHS12] suggests that, to achieve 128-bit security, just choose the dimension $N$:
$$
N\geq(Q/\sigma)\cdot 33.1
$$
This seems to suggest flexibility to choose ...

Differential privacy guarantees of Gaussian noise, when each coordinate has different sensitivity
Suppose you have a function $f$ that takes a dataset $D$ as input and returns an output in $\mathbb{R}^d$.
If this function has $L^2$-sensitivity $\Delta$, then the analytical Gaussian mechanism (...

Standard deviation of gaussian noise in FHEW scheme
I've got two questions regarding the paper FHEW: Bootstrapping Homomorphic Encryption
in less than a second.
First, the final error of a ciphertext after the refresh procedure is stated as following ...
