Blomer and Naewe[BN09] modified the randomized sieving algorithm of Ajtai, Kumar and Sivakumar[AKS01] to solve the shortest vector problem (SVP). The algorithm starts with $N = 2^{O(n)}$ randomly chosen vectors in the lattice and employs a…
One important question in the theory of lattices is to detect a shortest vector: given a norm and a lattice, what is the smallest norm attained by a non-zero vector contained in the lattice? We focus on the infinity norm and work with…
