Types and type aliases for BLS operations.

Type Aliases

  • BLS12381Pairing
    Type representing the result of a pairing
  • BLSFq
    Type alias for Fq, a field holding elements with a coefficient in BLSFr
  • BLSFq2
    Type alias for Fq2, a field representing a set of polynomials with 2 coefficients in BLSFq
  • BLSFr
    Type alias for BLS’ base field
  • BLSHmac
    Our hash function of choice is SHA-256
  • G1AffinePoint
    Represents a point in G1 (affine coordinates)
  • G1ProjectivePoint
    Represents a point in G1 (projective coordinates)
  • G2AffinePoint
    Represents a point in G2 (affine coordinates)
  • G2ProjectivePoint
    Represents a point in G2 (projective coordinates)
  • Octets
    The spec often talks about “octets strings”. We alias Vec<u8> to have the code read closer to the spec.
  • PublicKey
    Represents a point in G1 (we’re using the “minimal-pubkey-size” variant of the BLS spec)
  • SecretKey
    A secret key is an integer between 0 and the base field modulus In other words: a field element. To obtain a SecretKey from bytes, use super::os2ip.
  • Signature
    Represents a points in G2 (we’re using the “minimal-pubkey-size” variant of the BLS spec)
