Module Octez_bls12_381_polynomial.PolynomialSource
This library implements polynomials of Bls12_381.Fr as arrays of contiguous memory in C, allowing much better performances for algorithms that scan the polynomials.
An array a of size n represents the polynomial $\sum_i^(n-1) ai X^i$ The length of a is always greater or equal than the degree+1 of its corresponding polynomial, if greater it padded with zeros. As a consequence a polynomial has many representations, namely all arrays with trailing zeros.
init n f returns a fresh polynomial of length n, with element number i initialized to the result of f i.
erase p overwrites a polynomial p with a zero polynomial of the same size as the polynomial p
generate_biased_random_polynomial n generates a random polynomial of degree strictly lower than n, the distribution is NOT uniform, it is biased towards sparse polynomials and particularly towards the zero polynomial
random n generates a uniformly sampled polynomial among the set of all polynomials of degree strictly lower than n
degree p returns the degree of a polynomial p. Returns -1 for the zero polynomial
get p i returns the i-th element of a given array p, a coefficient of X^i in p
truncate ~len p returns a new polynomial made of the first len coefficients of p. If degree p + 1 is less than len then copy p is returned.
to_dense_coefficients p returns the dense representation of a polynomial p, i.e., it converts a C array to an OCaml array
of_dense p creates a value of type t from the dense representation of a polynomial p, i.e., it converts an OCaml array to a C array
of_coefficients p creates a value of type t from the sparse representation of a polynomial p, i.e., it converts an OCaml array to a C array
one is the constant polynomial one, the neutral element for polynomial multiplication
add_inplace res a b computes polynomial addition of a and b and writes the result in res
Note: res can be equal to either a or b
sub_inplace res a b computes polynomial subtraction of a and b and writes the result in res
Note: res can be equal to either a or b
mul computes polynomial multiplication
Note: naive quadratic algorithm, result's size is the sum of arguments' size
mul_by_scalar computes multiplication of a polynomial by a blst_fr element
mul_by_scalar_inplace res s p computes multiplication of a polynomial p by a blst_fr element s and stores it in res
linear_with_powers p s computes ∑ᵢ sⁱ·p.(i). This function is more efficient than linear + powers
opposite_inplace p computes polynomial negation
Note: The argument p is overwritten
division_xn p n c returns the quotient and remainder of the division of p by (X^n + c)
blind ~nb_blinds n p adds to polynomial p a random multiple of polynomial (X^n - 1), chosen by uniformly sampling a polynomial b of degree strictly lower than nb_blinds and multiplying it by (X^n - 1), b is returned as the second argument
