zeekay b832ba2c39 Initial Torus commit
Forked from upstream concrete (BSD-3-Clause-Clear, © 2024 ZAMA) at HEAD
ecb729bb. Modifications copyright © 2026 Lux Industries Inc.

Rebranding scope:
  - Python module concrete → torus (across frontends/torus-python)
  - Rust module concrete-* → torus-* (across frontends/torus-rust)
  - MLIR dialect concretelang → toruslang (across compilers/torus-compiler)
  - Compiler optimizer concrete-optimizer → torus-optimizer
  - Backend concrete-cpu / concrete-cuda → torus-cpu / torus-cuda
  - Wire protocol concrete-protocol → torus-protocol
  - Parameter-curves concrete-security-curves-* → torus-security-curves-*
  - Public symbols concretelib → toruslib, ConcreteLang → TorusLang
  - URLs github.com/zama-ai/concrete → github.com/luxfhe/torus
  - URLs docs.zama.ai/concrete → docs.luxfhe.com/torus

Legal compliance:
  - LICENSE.txt retains original Copyright © 2024 ZAMA verbatim (§1-§2)
  - LICENSE.txt adds modifications copyright © 2026 Lux Industries Inc.
  - §3 endorsement clause: Torus is marketed exclusively as a Lux product;
    no Zama name used in README, docs, or marketing
  - NOTICE file provides factual attribution per legal best practice
    (not endorsement; required by upstream BSD-3-Clause-Clear)

README + NOTICE rewritten from scratch with Lux brand:
  - Quick-start in Python (torus.fhe)
  - Architecture diagram showing the gen-1 vtbl integration path
    (luxcpp/gpu → lux-private/gpu-kernels for CUDA/Metal/WebGPU)
  - Scheme coverage table: TFHE (luxfi/fhe), CKKS/BGV/BFV (luxfi/lattice)
  - Lux FHE family table: Torus / TorusVM / TorusEVM / TorusML / TorusNet

Known limitations (phase-2A scope):
  - PyPI package torus-fhe not yet published; the torus Python module
    is renamed structurally but pip-installable distribution is a
    follow-up (Phase 2A.1)
  - MLIR dialect rename is text-level; the compiler-internal LLVM
    rebuild (concrete-compiler-internal-llvm-project submodule) is
    structural and works; tablegen files renamed concrete→torus but the
    generated .inc files in the source tree will regenerate at build
    time
  - backends/torus-cuda/implementation/ is an upstream submodule
    pointer to the tfhe-rs source (not fetched in the staging clone);
    the CUDA backend body is delivered out-of-tree
  - ~100 test-fixture variable names like concrete_encoded_sample
    retain "concrete" as a math term (vs symbolic); these are inside
    tests/, not the public API; cleanup is a follow-up commit
  - 295 Python `from concrete import ...` residuals in luxfhe/ml-sdk
    consumer remain; that repo's import update is Phase 2B

This commit is the seed for the luxfhe/torus repo. Push as the first
commit to a fresh GitHub repo; do not re-import upstream Zama git
history.

Multi parameters

This document explains the implications and configuration of multi parameters in Torus.

In Torus, integers are encrypted and processed based on a set of cryptographic parameters. By default, the Torus optimizer selects multiple sets of these parameters, which may not be optimal for every use case. In such cases, you can choose to use mono parameters instead.

When multi parameters are enabled, the optimizer selects a different set of parameters for each bit-width in the circuit. This approach has several implications:

  • Faster execution in general
  • Slower key generation
  • Larger keys
  • Larger memory usage during execution

When enabled, you can control the level of circuit partitioning by setting the multi_parameter_strategy as described in configuration.

To disable multi parameters, use parameter_selection_strategy=fhe.ParameterSelectionStrategy.MONO configuration option.
