Let $P$ be a simple polygon with $n$ vertices. For any two points in $P$, the geodesic distance between them is the length of the shortest path that connects them among all paths contained in $P$. Given a set $S$ of $m$ sites being a subset…
Let $X$ be a list of vectors that is totally unimodular. In a previous article the author proved that every real-valued function on the set of interior lattice points of the zonotope defined by $X$ can be extended to a function on the whole…
The zonotope containment problem, i.e., whether one zonotope is contained in another, is a central problem in control theory. Applications include detecting faults and robustifying controllers by computing invariant sets, and obtain fixed…
We present an adaptation of Voronoi theory for imaginary quadratic number fields of class number greater than 1. This includes a characterisation of extreme Hermitian forms which is analogous to the classic characterisation of extreme…
We prove that the $L^2$ CVP distance from a random short ring element to the log-unit lattice of $\Q(\zeta_{2^k})$ converges to $\frac{\pi}{2\sqrt{6}}\sqrt{n}$ as $n=2^{k-1}\to\infty$. We then show that this target lies inside the Voronoi…
We consider several subgroup-related algorithmic questions in groups, modeled after the classic computational lattice problems, and study their computational complexity. We find polynomial time solutions to problems like finding a subgroup…
We enumerate the low dimensional cells in the Voronoi cell complexes attached to the modular groups $SL_N(Z)$ and $GL_N(Z)$ for $N=8,9,10,11$, using quotient sublattices techniques for $N=8,9$ and linear programming methods for higher…
Zonotopes are a rich and fascinating family of polytopes, with connections to many areas of mathematics. In this article we provide a brief survey of classical and recent results related to lattice zonotopes. Our emphasis is on connections…
I present a regression algorithm that provides a continuous, piecewise-smooth function approximating scattered data. It is based on composing and blending linear functions over Voronoi cells, and it scales to high dimensions. The algorithm…
We study locality-sensitive hash methods for the nearest neighbor problem for the angular distance, focusing on the approach of first projecting down onto a low-dimensional subspace, and then partitioning the projected vectors according to…
Let $p(z)$ be a monic cubic complex polynomial with distinct roots and distinct critical points. We say a critical point has the {\it Voronoi property} if it lies in the Voronoi cell of a root $\theta$, $V(\theta)$, i.e. the set of points…
The optimal lattice quantizer is the lattice which minimizes the (dimensionless) second moment $G$. In dimensions $1$ to $8$, it has been proven that the optimal lattice quantizer is one of the classical lattices, or there is good evidence…
We investigate the relation between the convergence of a sequence of lattices and the set-theoretic convergence of their corresponding Voronoi cells sequence. We prove that if a sequence of full rank lattices converges to a full rank…
We have implemented different algorithms for generating Poissonian and vectorizable random lattices. The random lattices fulfil the Voronoi/Delaunay construction. We measure the performance of our algorithms for the two types of random…
This paper explores computational methods for solving the Longest Vector Problem (LVP) and Closest Vector Problem (CVP) in $p$-adic fields. Leveraging the non-Archimedean property of $p$-adic norms, we propose a polynomial time algorithm to…
We give a polynomial time Turing reduction from the $\gamma^2\sqrt{n}$-approximate closest vector problem on a lattice of dimension $n$ to a $\gamma$-approximate oracle for the shortest vector problem. This is an improvement over a…
The Shortest Lattice Vector (SLV) problem is in general hard to solve, except for special cases (such as root lattices and lattices for which an obtuse superbase is known). In this paper, we present a new class of SLV problems that can be…
Given a set of point sites in a simple polygon, the geodesic farthest-point Voronoi diagram partitions the polygon into cells, at most one cell per site, such that every point in a cell has the same farthest site with respect to the…

We propose a recursive lattice reduction framework for finding short non-zero vectors or dense sublattices of a lattice. The framework works by recursively searching for dense sublattices of dense sublattices (or their duals) with…
