Let $\Lb$ be a lattice in an $n$-dimensional Euclidean space $E$ and let $\Lb'$ be a Minkowskian sublattice of $\Lb$, that is, a sublattice having a basis made of representatives for the Minkowski successive minima of $\Lb$. We consider the…

With any integral lattice \Lambda in n-dimensional euclidean space we associate an elementary abelian 2-group I(\lambda) whose elements represent parts of the dual lattice that are similar to \Lambda. There are corresponding involutions on…

We compare for an $n$-dimensional Euclidean lattice $\Lb$ the smallest possible values of the product of the norms of $n$~vectors which either constitute a basis for $\Lb$ (Hermite-type inequalities) or are merely assumed to be independent…

It is shown that, given any $k$-dimensional lattice $\Lambda$, there is a lattice sequence $\Lambda_w$, $w\in \mathbb Z$, with sub-orthogonal lattice $\Lambda_o \subset \Lambda$, converging to $\Lambda$ (unless equivalence), also we discuss…

In 1945-46, C. L. Siegel proved that an $n$-dimensional lattice $\Lambda $ of determinant ${\rm det}(\Lambda )$ has at most $m^{n^2}$ different sublattices of determinant $m\cdot {\rm det}(\Lambda )$. In 1997, the exact number of the…

If $\Lambda \subseteq \mathbb{Z}^n$ is a sublattice of index $m$, then $\mathbb{Z}^n/\Lambda$ is a finite abelian group of order $m$ and rank at most $n$. Several authors have studied statistical properties of these groups as we range over…

Minkowski's second theorem on successive minima asserts that the volume of a 0-symmetric convex body K over the covolume of a lattice \Lambda can be bounded above by a quantity involving all the successive minima of K with respect to…

Minkowski proved that any $n$-dimensional lattice of unit determinant has a nonzero vector of Euclidean norm at most $\sqrt{n}$; in fact, there are $2^{\Omega(n)}$ such lattice vectors. Lattices whose minimum distances come close to…

A sublattice of the three-dimensional integer lattice $\mathbb Z^3$ is called cubic sublattice if there exists a basis of the sublattice whose elements are pairwise orthogonal and of equal lengths. We show that for an integer vector…

Given a lattice $\Lambda \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, we consider its Minkowski reduced basis and the solid angle $\Omega$ spanned by the basis vectors. Such a basis satisfies strong near-orthogonality conditions, which allow us to bound from…

Idempotent elements are a well-studied part of ring theory, with several identities of the idempotents in $\mathbb{Z}/m\mathbb{Z}$ already known. Although the idempotents are not closed under addition, there are still interesting additive…

A lattice $\Lambda$ is said to be an extension of a sublattice $L$ of smaller rank if $L$ is equal to the intersection of $\Lambda$ with the subspace spanned by $L$. The goal of this paper is to initiate a systematic study of the geometry…

One-dimensional quasilattices are classified into mutual local-derivability (MLD) classes on the basis of geometrical and number-theoretical considerations. Most quasilattices are ternary, and there exist an infinite number of MLD classes.…

Let $\lambda_k$ denote the $k$-th successive minimum of a lattice $L$. We study properties of the lengths of certain bases of $L$. If $v_1, \dots v_n$ is a basis which is reduced in the sense of Minkowski we show that $\lvert v_k \rvert^2…

In the study of Euclidean lattices, the product of the successive minima is bounded from above and below by explicit quantities. This result is known as Minkowski's second theorem, and can be refined to include Hermite's constant in the…

For some self-similar sets K in d-dimensional Euclidean space we obtain certain lower bounds for the lower Minkowski dimension of K+E in terms of the lower Minkowski dimension of E.

For any $\Lambda>0$, let $\mathcal{M}_{n,\Lambda}$ denote the space containing all locally Lipschitz minimal graphs of dimension $n$ and of arbitrary codimension $m$ in Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{n+m}$ with uniformly bounded 2-dilation…

The main result of this paper is an inequality relating the lattice point enumerator of a 3-dimensional, 0-symmetric convex body and its successive minima. This is an example of generalization of Minkowski's theorems on successive minima,…

We present a natural reverse Minkowski-type inequality for lattices, which gives upper bounds on the number of lattice points in a Euclidean ball in terms of sublattice determinants, and conjecture its optimal form. The conjecture exhibits…

Let $\Lambda$ be any integral lattice in Euclidean space. It has been shown that for every integer $n>0$, there is a hypersphere that passes through exactly $n$ points of $\Lambda$. Using this result, we introduce new lattice invariants and…
