Specially, Gentry, Sahai, and Waters (GSW) used the approximate eigenvector approach to propose a LWE-based FHE scheme in 2013 [10] whose ciphertext is a square matrix, and thus multiplication of ciphertexts is the multiplication of square matrixes that make homomorphic multiplication become very nature and simple.
