+# Design
+
+#### Notation
+We work on a cycle of curves composed by $E_1$ and $E_2$, where $E_1.F_r = E_2.F_q$ and $E_1.F_q=E_2.F_r$.
+We will use $F_r$ to refer to $E_1.F_r=E_2.F_q$, and $F_q$ to refer to $E_1.F_q=E_2.F_r$.
+The main circuit constraint field is $F_r$, and $C_{EC}$ circuit constraint field is $F_q$.

+# Nova + CycleFold
+
+[CycleFold](https://eprint.iacr.org/2023/1192.pdf) improves the usage of the cycle of curves proposed in [Nova](https://eprint.iacr.org/2021/370.pdf).

+*CycleFold applied to HyperNova, src: [https://eprint.iacr.org/2023/1192.pdf](https://eprint.iacr.org/2023/1192.pdf)*
+
+
+
+We use a concrete version of the CycleFold approach applied to Nova.
+
+The following image provides a description of the main Nova circuit and CycleFold circuit over a couple of steps, implemented at [nova/circuits.rs](https://github.com/privacy-scaling-explorations/folding-schemes/blob/main/folding-schemes/src/folding/nova/circuits.rs) and [nova/cyclefold.rs](https://github.com/privacy-scaling-explorations/folding-schemes/blob/main/folding-schemes/src/folding/nova/cyclefold.rs).
