Tulva: Practical Asynchronous Threshold FHE
arXiv cs.CR0 views
arXiv:2610.20521v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present Tulva, a practical threshold FHE scheme which equips a base FHE scheme with an asynchronous threshold decryption mechanism in a modular way. Our scheme simultaneously (1) is compatible with virtually any base FHE scheme and leaves its ciphertexts unchanged apart from an appended random tag, (2) supports a wide range of threshold profiles $(t,K)$ and ring degrees $\geq 256$ with 6-25 bits partial decryption per plaintext bit, and (3) achieves security in the presence of partial decryption queries on challenge ciphertexts based on the standard LWE assumption. We provide an open-source implementation, benchmark its threshold decryption performance and evaluate the end-to-end costs for typical privacy-preserving Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) use cases. For 16-out-of-512 threshold and a publicly preprocessed ciphertext, computing secret-dependent partial decryption and public share combination requires only 3.7 ms and 0.5 ms, respectively, on commodity hardware. Compared with the state-of-the-art synchronous scheme [Zyskind et al., CCS'25], we replace their ciphertext-independent yet interactive preparation of secret-correlated randomness with a public, ciphertext-dependent 0.5 s preprocessing step, eliminate interaction in the online phase while maintaining similar decryption time on the same machine, and support 32$\times$ more total users.
