Binius STARKs Analysis and Its Optimization

There are two practical challenges when constructing a proof system based on binary fields: First, the field size used for trace representation in STARKs should be larger than the degree of the polynomial. Second, the field size used for the Merkle tree commitment in STARKs must be greater than the size after Reed-Solomon encoding extension. Binius is an innovative solution to address these two problems by representing the same data in two different ways.

Technical Principles and Applications of Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE)

Homomorphic encryption is a cryptographic technique that allows specific computations to be performed directly on encrypted data without prior decryption. Only upon final decryption is the correct plaintext result revealed. This technology's uniqueness lies in its dual ability to protect data privacy and enable "active" encrypted data—allowing continued data processing under a secure umbrella. As a result, homomorphic encryption emerges as an ideal technology that seamlessly integrates privacy protection with data processing, finding widespread application across an increasing number of fields.
