The shortest vector problem (SVP) over ideal lattices is closely related to the Ring-LWE problem, which is widely used to build post-quantum cryptosystems. Power-of-two cyclotomic fields are frequently adopted to instantiate Ring-LWE. Pan…
We revisit the approximate Voronoi cells approach for solving the closest vector problem with preprocessing (CVPP) on high-dimensional lattices, and settle the open problem of Doulgerakis-Laarhoven-De Weger [PQCrypto, 2019] of determining…
We present an efficient reduction from the Bounded integer programming (BIP) to the Subspace avoiding problem (SAP) in lattice theory. The reduction has some special properties with some interesting consequences. The first is the new upper…
The Strong Exponential Time Hypothesis and the OV-conjecture are two popular hardness assumptions used to prove a plethora of lower bounds, especially in the realm of polynomial-time algorithms. The OV-conjecture in moderate dimension…
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…
We define two new problems called SIAP and CAP related to solving SIVP and CVP in a subset of lattices called Simultaneous Approximation (SA) lattices. We give dimension- and gap-preserving, deterministic polynomial-time and space…
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…
In this paper, we present FPT-algorithms for special cases of the shortest vector problem (SVP) and the integer linear programming problem (ILP), when matrices included to the problems' formulations are near square. The main parameter is…
We prove that for an arbitrarily small constant $\eps>0,$ assuming NP$\not \subseteq$DTIME$(2^{{\log^{O(1/\eps)} n}})$, the preprocessing versions of the closest vector problem and the nearest codeword problem are hard to approximate within…
We examine the possibility of approximating Maximum Vertex-Disjoint Shortest Paths. In this problem, the input is an edge-weighted (directed or undirected) $n$-vertex graph $G$ along with $k$ terminal pairs…
The $k$-Even Set problem is a parameterized variant of the Minimum Distance Problem of linear codes over $\mathbb F_2$, which can be stated as follows: given a generator matrix $\mathbf A$ and an integer $k$, determine whether the code…
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…
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…
We obtain hardness of approximation results for the $\ell_p$-Shortest Path problem, a variant of the classic Shortest Path problem with vector costs. For every integer $p \in [2,\infty)$, we show a hardness of $\Omega(p(\log n / \log^2\log…
The Integer Programming Problem (IP) for a polytope P \subseteq R^n is to find an integer point in P or decide that P is integer free. We give an algorithm for an approximate version of this problem, which correctly decides whether P…
The closest pair problem is a fundamental problem of computational geometry: given a set of $n$ points in a $d$-dimensional space, find a pair with the smallest distance. A classical algorithm taught in introductory courses solves this…
Our main result is a reduction from worst-case lattice problems such as GapSVP and SIVP to a certain learning problem. This learning problem is a natural extension of the `learning from parity with error' problem to higher moduli. It can…
In this paper, we introduce the Maximum Distance Sublattice Problem (MDSP). We observed that the problem of solving an instance of the Closest Vector Problem (CVP) in a lattice $\mathcal{L}$ is the same as solving an instance of MDSP in the…
