Why does every gate need bootstrapping? #20

Closed qianlou closed 5 years ago

After running NAND gate, the noise is still less than the bound. Can we run bootstraps once among multiple gates if we can decrypt ciphertext?

Maybe, but it will increase failure probability beyond what is analyzed in the paper. I guess it depends what kind of failure probability you tolerate.
