We propose a multi-bit leveled fully homomorphic encryption scheme using multivariate polynomial evaluations. The security of the scheme depends on the hardness of the Learning with Errors (LWE) problem. For homomorphic multiplication, the scheme uses a polynomial based technique that does not require relinearization (and key switching). The noise associated with the ciphertext increases only linearly with every multiplication.

We propose a symmetric key homomorphic encryption scheme based on the evaluation of multivariate polynomials over a finite field. The proposed scheme is somewhat homomorphic with respect to addition and multiplication. Further, we define a generalization of the Learning with Errors problem called the Hidden Subspace Membership problem and show that the semantic security of the proposed scheme can be reduced to the hardness of this problem.
