Template-based searches for gravitational waves are often limited by the computational cost associated with searching large parameter spaces. The study of efficient template banks, in the sense of using the smallest number of templates, is…
Lattices are discrete mathematical objects with widespread applications to integer programs as well as modern cryptography. A fundamental problem in both domains is the Closest Vector Problem (popularly known as CVP). It is well-known that…
We produce an explicit parameterization of well-rounded sublattices of the hexagonal lattice in the plane, splitting them into similarity classes. We use this parameterization to study the number, the greatest minimal norm, and the highest…
It has been shown that the maximum stable set problem in some infinite graphs, and the kissing number problem in particular, reduces to a minimization problem over the cone of copositive kernels. Optimizing over this infinite dimensional…
In [1], K\"otter and Kschischang presented a new model for error correcting codes in network coding. The alphabet in this model is the subspace lattice of a given vector space, a code is a subset of this lattice and the used metric on this…
We study ideal lattices in $\mathbb{R}^2$ coming from real quadratic fields, and give an explicit method for computing all well-rounded twists of any such ideal lattice. We apply this to ideal lattices coming from Markoff numbers to…
We generalize Banaszczyk's seminal tail bound for the Gaussian mass of a lattice to a wide class of test functions. From this we obtain quite general transference bounds, as well as bounds on the number of lattice points contained in…
Lattices are a popular field of study in mathematical research, but also in more practical areas like cryptology or multiple-input/multiple-output (MIMO) transmission. In mathematical theory, most often lattices over real numbers are…
A recent paper on the large-scale structure of the Universe presented evidence for a rectangular three-dimensional lattice of galaxy superclusters and voids, with lattice spacing ~120 Mpc and called for some ``hitherto unknown process'' to…
In this paper we prove an asymptotic lower bound for the sphere packing density in dimensions divisible by four. This asymptotic lower bound improves on previous asymptotic bounds by a constant factor and improves not just lower bounds for…
The construction of optimal template banks for matched-filtering searches is an example of the sphere covering problem. For parameter spaces with constant-coefficient metrics a (near-) optimal template bank is achieved by the A_n* lattice,…
A lattice L is spatial if every element of L is a join of completely join-irreducible elements of L (points), and strongly spatial if it is spatial and the minimal coverings of completely join-irreducible elements are well-behaved.…
Properties of several sorts of lattices of convex subsets of R^n are examined. The lattice of convex sets containing the origin turns out, for n>1, to satisfy a set of identities strictly between those of the lattice of all convex subsets…
Mining frequent subgraphs is an area of research where we have a given set of graphs (each graph can be seen as a transaction), and we search for (connected) subgraphs contained in many of these graphs. In this work we will discuss…
We identify the maximally dense lattice packings of tangent-disk trimers with fixed bond angles ($\theta = \theta_0$) and contrast them to both their nonmaximally-dense-but-strictly-jammed lattice packings as well as the disordered jammed…
Let $K$ be a convex body in $\mathbb{R}^n$, let $L$ be a lattice with covolume one, and let $\eta>0$. We say that $K$ and $L$ form an $\eta$-smooth cover if each point $x \in \mathbb{R}^n$ is covered by $(1 \pm \eta) vol(K)$ translates of…
Encoding and indexing of lattice codes is generalized from self-similar lattice codes to a broader class of lattices. If coding lattice $\Lambda_{\textrm{c}}$ and shaping lattice $\Lambda_{\textrm{s}}$ satisfy $\Lambda_{\textrm{s}}…
We call a lattice crosscut-simplicial if the crosscut complex of every atomic interval is equal to the boundary of a simplex. Every interval of such a lattice is either contractible or homotopy equivalent to a sphere. Recently, Hersh and…
Lattices are very important objects in the effort to construct cryptographic primitives that are secure against quantum attacks. A central problem in the study of lattices is that of finding the shortest non-zero vector in the lattice.…
We prove that in any dimension $n$ there exists an origin-symmetric ellipsoid ${\mathcal{E}} \subset {\mathbb{R}}^n$ of volume $ c n^2 $ that contains no points of ${\mathbb{Z}}^n$ other than the origin, where $c > 0$ is a universal…
