We show a $2^{n+o(n)}$-time (and space) algorithm for the Shortest Vector Problem on lattices (SVP) that works by repeatedly running an embarrassingly simple "pair and average" sieving-like procedure on a list of lattice vectors. This…

A particular instance of the Shortest Vector Problem (SVP) appears in the context of Compute-and-Forward. Despite the NP-hardness of the SVP, we will show that this certain instance can be solved in complexity order $O(n\psi\log(n\psi))$…

Recent work [BGS17,ABGS19] has shown SETH hardness of CVP in the $\ell_p$ norm for any $p$ that is not an even integer. This result was shown by giving a Karp reduction from $k$-SAT on $n$ variables to CVP on a lattice of rank $n$. In this…

A fundamental computational problem is to find a shortest non-zero vector in Euclidean lattices, a problem known as the Shortest Vector Problem (SVP). This problem is believed to be hard even on quantum computers and thus plays a pivotal…

The discrete Gaussian $D_{L- t, s}$ is the distribution that assigns to each vector $x$ in a shifted lattice $L - t$ probability proportional to $e^{-\pi \|x\|^2/s^2}$. It has long been an important tool in the study of lattices. More…

Bl\"omer and Seifert showed that $\mathsf{SIVP}_2$ is NP-hard to approximate by giving a reduction from $\mathsf{CVP}_2$ to $\mathsf{SIVP}_2$ for constant approximation factors as long as the $\mathsf{CVP}$ instance has a certain property.…
