Fawkes-Crypto is a lightweight framework for building circuits in bellman, using groth16 proving system and BN254 curve.
The framework is targeted to use best practices for circuit building from circom and sapling-crypto.
Final fields and circuit math are wrapped and operators are implemented, so, in most cases if you want to type a+b, you can do it.
Here is an example, how Merkle tree implementation is working. Also you may check the rollup here.
#[derive(Clone, Signal)]
#[Value="MerkleProof<CS::F, L>"]
pub struct CMerkleProof<'a, CS: ConstraintSystem, const L: usize> {
pub sibling: SizedVec<CNum<'a, CS>, L>,
pub path: SizedVec<CBool<'a, CS>, L>
}
pub fn c_poseidon_merkle_proof_root<'a, CS: ConstraintSystem, const L: usize>(
leaf: &CNum<'a, CS>,
proof: &CMerkleProof<'a, CS, L>,
params: &PoseidonParams<CS::F>
) -> CNum<'a, CS> {
let mut root = leaf.clone();
for (p, s) in proof.path.iter().zip(proof.sibling.iter()) {
let first = s.switch(p, &root);
let second = &root + s - &first;
root = c_poseidon( [first, second].as_ref(), params);
}
root
}Signal is a sparse linear combination of inputs, based on ordered linked list, so we perform arithmetics with Signal with U(N) complexity. With Signal bellman will allocate additional inputs only when you really need it (for example, in the case when you multiply two nonconstant Signal). If you perform multiplication with constant or zero Signal, no additional inputs will be allocated.

- We are using indeterministic subgroup checks, performing most part of computations as witness-only and perform cofactor multiplication at the circuit.
- ecmul and ecmul_cost operations are working assuming that the base point is in the subgroup. This allows us to use Montgomery (0, 0) point as adder initial state. Then the adder never reaches zero point and subgroup point, because (0, 0) is not in subgroup and we can use cheap montgomery_add circuit safely.
- improved compconstant circuit. The same PR into circomlib available here
