Book/Article Recommendations - Fully Homomorphic Encryption

[Sudharaka]

Hi everyone, :)

I am trying to understand how Gentry's Fully Homomorphic encryption scheme. However I think I lack background knowledge to understand it perfectly. Does anybody have any recommendations to what a good starting point might be to understand this crypto system?

I would recommend starting with a basic introduction to cryptography and then working your way up to homomorphic encryption. You can find many tutorials and explanations online that discuss the basics of cryptography and then move on to the more advanced topics such as homomorphic encryption. Additionally, there are some great books out there that go into the details of homomorphic encryption, such as "Introduction to Modern Cryptography" by Jonathan Katz and Yehuda Lindell. Finally, you could also look into taking a formal course on cryptography or attending a conference or workshop on the subject to gain a better understanding of Gentry's Fully Homomorphic Encryption Scheme.
