Abstract

We show that for those lattices of Voronoi's first kind with known obtuse superbasis, a closest lattice point can be computed in O(n4)O(n^4) operations where nn is the dimension of the lattice. To achieve this a series of relevant lattice vectors that converges to a closest lattice point is found. We show that the series converges after at most nn terms. Each vector in the series can be efficiently computed in O(n3)O(n^3) operations using an algorithm to compute a minimum cut in an undirected flow network.
