In a seminal work, Micciancio & Voulgaris (2013) described a deterministic single-exponential time algorithm for the Closest Vector Problem (CVP) on lattices. It is based on the computation of the Voronoi cell of the given lattice and thus…
The art gallery problem enquires about the least number of guards that are sufficient to ensure that an art gallery, represented by a polygon $P$, is fully guarded. In 1998, the problems of finding the minimum number of point guards, vertex…
In this work, we exhibit a hierarchy of polynomial time algorithms solving approximate variants of the Closest Vector Problem (CVP). Our first contribution is a heuristic algorithm achieving the same distance tradeoff as HSVP algorithms,…
While an explicit basis is common in the study of Euclidean spaces, it is usually implied in the study of inertial relativistic systems. There are some conceptual advantages to including the basis in the study of special relativistic…

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…
For a matrix ${\bf A}$ with linearly independent columns, this work studies to use its normalization $\bar{\bf A}$ and ${\bf A}$ itself to approximate its orthonormalization $\bf V$. We theoretically analyze the order of the approximation…

Recent developments in motivic homotopy theory, especially the construction of norm functors by Bachmann and Hoyois, rely heavily on the machinery of infinite categories. In this paper, we take a purely geometric and elementary approach via…

The closest vector problem (CVP) and shortest (nonzero) vector problem (SVP) are the core algorithmic problems on Euclidean lattices. They are central to the applications of lattices in many problems of communications and cryptography.…
Block classical Gram-Schmidt (BCGS) is commonly used for orthogonalizing a set of vectors $X$ in distributed computing environments due to its favorable communication properties relative to other orthogonalization approaches, such as…
We introduce a new class of algorithms for finding a short vector in lattices defined by codes of co-dimension $k$ over $\mathbb{Z}_P^d$, where $P$ is prime. The co-dimension $1$ case is solved by exploiting the packing properties of the…
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 $O(n\psi\log(n\psi))$…
We introduce and study two natural generalizations of the Connected VertexCover (VC) problem: the $p$-Edge-Connected and $p$-Vertex-Connected VC problem (where $p \geq 2$ is a fixed integer). Like Connected VC, both new VC problems are FPT,…
van Emde Boas (1981) conjectured that computing a shortest non-zero vector of a lattice in an Euclidean space is NP-hard. In this paper, we prove that this conjecture is true and hence de-randomize the classical randomness result of Ajtai…
In part I we introduce vertex rings, which bear the same relation to vertex algebras (or VOAs) as commutative, associative rings do to commutative, associative algebras over the complex numbers. We show that vertex rings are characterized…
Optimization problems, generalized equations, and the multitude of other variational problems invariably lead to the analysis of sets and set-valued mappings as well as their approximations. We review the central concept of set-convergence…
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.…
