In the Orthogonal Vectors problem (OV), we are given two families $A, B$ of subsets of $\{1,\ldots,d\}$, each of size $n$, and the task is to decide whether there exists a pair $a \in A$ and $b \in B$ such that $a \cap b = \emptyset$.…

In this paper, we present a deterministic algorithm for the closest vector problem for all l_p-norms, 1 < p < \infty, and all polyhedral norms, especially for the l_1-norm and the l_{\infty}-norm. We achieve our results by introducing a new…

We show the first dimension-preserving search-to-decision reductions for approximate SVP and CVP. In particular, for any $\gamma \leq 1 + O(\log n/n)$, we obtain an efficient dimension-preserving reduction from $\gamma^{O(n/\log n)}$-SVP to…

In 2018, the longest vector problem (LVP) and the closest vector problem (CVP) in $p$-adic lattices were introduced. These problems are closely linked to the orthogonalization process. In this paper, we first prove that every $p$-adic…

We provide the currently fastest randomized (1+epsilon)-approximation algorithm for the closest vector problem in the infinity norm. The running time of our method depends on the dimension n and the approximation guarantee epsilon by 2^O(n)…

In this paper we address the problem of finding well approximating lattices for a given finite set $A$ of points in ${\mathbb R}^n$. More precisely, we search for $\v{o},\v{d_1}, \dots,\v{d_n}\in \mathbb{R}^n$ such that $\v{a}-\v{o}$ is…

Point location problems for $n$ points in $d$-dimensional Euclidean space (and $\ell_p$ spaces more generally) have typically had two kinds of running-time solutions: * (Nearly-Linear) less than $d^{poly(d)} \cdot n \log^{O(d)} n$ time, or…

We give the first $2$-approximation algorithm for the cluster vertex deletion problem. This is tight, since approximating the problem within any constant factor smaller than $2$ is UGC-hard. Our algorithm combines the previous approaches,…
