FHE Component Repository

The Component Repository is a dynamic library of FHE components that serve as modular building blocks for applications stored on blockchain level. These components are implemented as functions built from ISA instructions, providing high-level abstractions for cryptographic computations, such as ReLU, Sign, or polynomial evaluation.

Key Features of the Component Repository

1. High-Level Abstraction Components act like intrinsics in traditional computing, offering optimized and reusable functionality while hiding the complexity of their implementation. They allow developers to leverage advanced cryptographic operations without needing deep knowledge of the underlying algorithms.

2. Integration with polycircuit Dialect Components dynamically form the polycircuit dialect within the Instruction Set Architecture (ISA). This dialect provides specialized instructions for invoking components, ensuring seamless integration into computational pipelines with flexibility and efficiency.

3. Composability Components can call other components within their implementation. For instance, a neural network component may internally use activation functions (e.g., ReLU, Sigmoid) or pooling operations. This composability simplifies the construction and maintenance of complex algorithms.

Incentive Mechanism

To encourage the creation of high-quality, reusable components:

• Developers are rewarded when their components are used in applications. A proportional share of the rewards generated by the application's execution is distributed to the component’s creator.

• This mechanism fosters a vibrant ecosystem, motivating developers to contribute and maintain robust components.

Repository Management

The repository is managed through the FHERMA platform, which:

• Validates components for security and compatibility.

• Benchmarks them to ensure optimal performance.

• Version-controls the components to maintain consistency and reliability.
