A lattice $L$ is said lowly finite if the set $[\mathsf{0},a]$ is finite for every element $a$ of $L$. We mainly aim to provide a complete proof that, if $M$ is a subset of a complete lowly finite distributive lattice $L$ containing its…

We present a class of lattices in R^d (d >= 2) which we call GL-lattices and conjecture that any lattice is such. This conjecture is referred to as GLC. Littlewood's conjecture amounts to saying that Z^2 is GL. We then prove existence of GL…

In this paper, we generalize Minkowski's theorem. This theorem is usually stated for a centrally symmetric convex body and a lattice both included in $\mathbb{R}^n$. In some situations, one may replace the lattice by a more general set for…

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…

Assuming the Gowers Inverse conjecture and the M\"{o}bius conjecture for the finite parameter $s$, Green-Tao verified Dickson's conjecture for lattices which are ranges of linear maps of complexity at most $s$. In this paper, we reformulate…

For a compact set $A$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ the Hausdorff distance from $A$ to $\text{conv}(A)$ is defined by \begin{equation*} d(A):=\sup_{a\in\text{conv}(A)}\inf_{x\in A}|x-a|, \end{equation*} where for $x=(x_1,\dots,x_n)\in\mathbb{R}^n$ we…

We prove the $l^2$ Decoupling Conjecture for compact hypersurfaces with positive definite second fundamental form and also for the cone. This has a wide range of important consequences. One of them is the validity of the Discrete…

In a seminal paper, Kannan and Lov\'asz (1988) considered a quantity $\mu_{KL}(\Lambda,K)$ which denotes the best volume-based lower bound on the covering radius $\mu(\Lambda,K)$ of a convex body $K$ with respect to a lattice $\Lambda$.…

Let $\mathbb{R}^n$ be the n-dimensional Euclidean space with $O$ as the origin. Let $\wedge$ be a lattice of determinant $1$ such that there is a sphere $|X|<R$ which contains no point of $\wedge$ other than $O$ and has $n$ linearly…

We give a new proof of the Minkowski-Hlawka bound on the existence of dense lattices. The proof is based on an elementary method for constructing dense lattices which is almost effective.

In 1978, Makai Jr. established a remarkable connection between the volume-product of a convex body, its maximal lattice packing density and the minimal density of a lattice arrangement of its polar body intersecting every affine hyperplane.…

Finding the shortest vectors in a lattice is an NP-hard problem, so low-dimensional results also play an essential role in lattice reduction theory. Using Ryskov's result for the admissible centerings and Tammela's result for determining…

In this paper, we introduce the zero divisor graph of a multiplicative lattice. We provide a counter example to Beck's conjecture for multiplicative lattices. Further, we prove that Beck's conjecture is true for reduced multiplicative…

We give a precise estimate for the number of lattice points in certain bounded subsets of $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ that involve `hyperbolic spikes' and occur naturally in multiplicative Diophantine approximation. We use Wilkie's o-minimal structure…

In this paper, we present a more complete version of the minimax theorem established in [7]. As a consequence, we get, for instance, the following result: Let $X$ be a compact, not singleton subset of a normed space $(E,\|\cdot\|)$ and let…

In this short note we prove a sharp lower bound for the second moment of a lattice Voronoi cell in terms of the respective covering radius. This gives an affirmative answer to a conjecture by Haviv, Lyubashevsky and Regev. We also…

In this paper, we give a new proof of an arithmetic analogue of the Riemann-Roch Theorem, due originally to Serge Lang. Lang's result was first proved using the lattice point geometry of Minkowski. By contrast, our proof is completely…

The well-known 1-2-3 Conjecture asserts that the edges of every graph without an isolated edge can be weighted with $1$, $2$ and $3$ so that adjacent vertices receive distinct weighted degrees. This is open in general. We prove that every…

In 1933, Karol Borsuk asked whether each bounded set in the $n$-dimensional Euclidean space can be divided into $n$+1 parts of smaller diameter. Because it would not make sense otherwise, one usually assumes that he just forgot to require…

The Polynomial Freiman-Ruzsa conjecture is one of the central open problems in additive combinatorics. If true, it would give tight quantitative bounds relating combinatorial and algebraic notions of approximate subgroups. In this note, we…
