We show that, assuming NP $\not\subseteq$ $\cap_{\delta > 0}$DTIME$\left(\exp{n^\delta}\right)$, the shortest vector problem for lattices of rank $n$ in any finite $\ell_p$ norm is hard to approximate within a factor of $2^{(\log n)^{1 -…

We present a family of fast pseudo-approximation algorithms for the minimum balanced vertex separator problem in a graph. Given a graph $G=(V,E)$ with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, and a (constant) balance parameter $c\in(0,1/2)$, where $G$…

The Coxeter lattices, which we denote $A_{n/m}$, are a family of lattices containing many of the important lattices in low dimensions. This includes $A_n$, $E_7$, $E_8$ and their duals $A_n^*$, $E_7^*$ and $E_8^*$. We consider the problem…
