Layer-Parallel Inference Reduces Encrypted Nonlinear Depth in Transformers

arXiv:2607.04819v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) enables computation on encrypted data, but practical encrypted Transformer inference is bottlenecked by the sequential composition of many nonlinear blocks. We study whether Structured Newton Layer Parallelism (SNLP) can make this inter-layer composition more FHE-friendly: each Transformer block still requires polynomial approximations for operations such as softmax and RMSNorm, but SNLP reduces the layerwise sequential nonlinear depth from L stages to a small number of solver iterations plus linear structured c
