Our work on lattice-based polynomial commitments was published in the Journal of Cryptology, as the first article in the Topical Collection on Modern Zero-Knowledge Protocols! Joint work with Hossein Moghaddas and Ngoc Khanh Nguyen! 📄: ia.cr/2023/846 📚: doi.org/10.1007/s00145…


The next edition of Theory and Practice of Multi-Practice Computation (TPMPC) will take place in Bangalore March 3rd-6th, and the deadline for submitting talks is October 15th. This is much earlier than in previous years, please help spread the word! multipartycomputation.com/tpmpc-2025



🎉Learn & Share from @PrivacyScaling is back!!🎉 To start, we will have Carla Ràfols presenting a joint work with Anca Nitulescu and Nikitas Palis called "Flip-and prove R1CS". eprint.iacr.org/2024/1364 New folding scheme + RelaxedR1CS Groth16 prover🔥 👇👇 bit.ly/3YdjK6r

Super excited to share how Apple is deploying homomorphic encryption! It'll be used for private information retrieval (mail, calls, content restrictions) and private nearest neighbor search (photos). This was an amazing effort across multiple teams! 💪🎉 machinelearning.apple.com/research/homom…



The @PrivacyScaling Learn & Share session on " FLIP-and-prove R1CS" by Carla Ràfols is up!! 🧐🧐🧐 The talk was really nicely structured and gave really interesting insights on the protocol. A (quite under-explored view IMHO) youtu.be/r6kAHl8THDs?si…


Last week, I gave a talk at BSA @ EPFL🦇🔊 about recent advancements and applications of hash-based SNARKs, including UC-security 🌍, STIR 🥣 and WHIR 🌪️. Enjoy! youtu.be/SRuMNuczum0
