Struct risc0_zkp::core::fp::Fp

#[repr(transparent)]
pub struct Fp(_);

The Fp class is an element of the finite field F_p, where P is the prime number 15*2^27 + 1. Put another way, Fp is basically integer arithmetic modulo P.

The Fp datatype is the core type of all of the operations done within the zero knowledge proofs, and is the smallest ‘addressable’ datatype, and the base type of which all composite types are built. In many ways, one can imagine it as the word size of a very strange architecture.

This specific prime P was chosen to:

• Be less than 2^31 so that it fits within a 32 bit word and doesn’t overflow on addition.
• Otherwise have as large a power of 2 in the factors of P-1 as possible.

This last property is useful for number theoretical transforms (the fast fourier transform equivelant on finite fields). See NTT.h for details.

The Fp class wraps all the standard arithmetic operations to make the finite field elements look basically like ordinary numbers (which they mostly are).

Implementations

impl Fp

pub const fn new(x: u32) -> Self

Create a new Fp from a raw integer.

pub const fn invalid() -> Self

Create a new Fp with an ‘invalid’ value.

pub fn max() -> Self

Return the maximum value that an Fp can take.

pub fn pow(self, n: usize) -> Self

Raise an Fp value to the power of n.

pub fn inv(self) -> Self

Compute the multiplicative inverse of x, or 1 / x in finite field terms. Since x ^ (P - 1) == 1 % P for any x != 0 (as a consequence of Fermat’s little theorem), it follows that x * x ^ (P - 2) == 1 % P for x != 0. That is, x ^ (P - 2) is the multiplicative inverse of x. Computed this way, the inverse of zero comes out as zero, which is convenient in many cases, so we leave it.
