In this paper, we study a classical construction of lattices from number fields and obtain a series of new results about their minimum distance and other characteristics by introducing a new measure of algebraic numbers. In particular, we…

We consider the well-known Rosenbloom-Tsfasman function field lattices in the special case of Hermitian function fields. We show that in this case the resulting lattices are generated by their minimal vectors, provide an estimate on the…

In their well known book Tsfasman and Vladut introduced a construction of a family of function field lattices from algebraic curves over finite fields, which have asymptotically good packing density in high dimensions. In this paper we…

Orders in number fields provide natural examples of lattices. We ask: what can the successive minima of lattices arising from orders in number fields be? Given an order $\mathcal{O}$ of absolute discriminant $\Delta$ in a degree $n$ number…

In section 1 we give an improved lower bound on Hermite's constant $\delta_{2g}$ for symplectic lattices in even dimensions ($g=2n$) by applying a mean-value argument from the geometry of numbers to a subset of symmetric lattices. Here we…

This paper deals with lattices $(L,\Vert~\Vert)$ over polynomial rings, where $L$ is a finitely generated module over $k[t]$, the polynomial ring over the field $k$ in the indeterminate $t$, and $\Vert~\Vert$ is a discrete real-valued…

The Erd\H{o}s distance problem concerns the least number of distinct distances that can be determined by $N$ points in the plane. The integer lattice with $N$ points is known as \textit{near-optimal}, as it spans $\Theta(N/\sqrt{\log(N)})$…

This paper partially addresses the problem of characterizing the lengths of vectors in a family of Euclidean lattices that arise from any CM number field. We define a modified quadratic form on these lattices, the weighted norm, that…

Let $\mathcal{S}_n$ denote the set of permutations of $\{1,2,\dots,n\}$. The function $f(n,s)$ is defined to be the minimum size of a subset $S\subseteq \mathcal{S}_n$ with the property that for any $\rho\in \mathcal{S}_n$ there exists some…

We obtain lower bound for the maximum distance between any three distinct points in an affine lattice which are close to a helix with small curvature and torsion.

In this paper, we contribute to previously known results on lattices constructed by algebraic function fields, or function field lattices in short. First, motivated by the non-well-roundedness property of certain hyperelliptic function…

Recall first the algebraic treatment of flows or tensions in a transportation network $N$, i.e. a connected antisymmetric 1-graph $G(X, U)$. Assume that, unusually, we take the values of flows (resp. tensions) in $\mathbb{C}$. So the…

Let $\mathbb{R}^m$ be endowed with the Euclidean metric. The covering radius of a lattice $\Lambda \subset \mathbb{R}^m$ is the least distance $r$ such that, given any point of $\mathbb{R}^m$, the distance from that point to $\Lambda$ is…

Motivated by the behavior of the trace pairing over tame cyclic number fields, we introduce the notion of tame lattices. Given an arbitrary non-trivial lattice $\mathcal{L}$ we construct a parametric family of full-rank sub-lattices…

Complex bases, along with direct-sums defined by rings of imaginary quadratic integers, induce algebraic lattices. In this work, we study such lattices and their reduction algorithms. Firstly, when the lattice is spanned over a two…

Minkowski proved that any $n$-dimensional lattice of unit determinant has a nonzero vector of Euclidean norm at most $\sqrt{n}$; in fact, there are $2^{\Omega(n)}$ such lattice vectors. Lattices whose minimum distances come close to…

It is well-known that the densest lattice sphere packings also typically have large kissing numbers. The sphere packing density maximization problem is known to have a solution among well-rounded lattices, of which the integer lattice…

Let $\lambda_k$ denote the $k$-th successive minimum of a lattice $L$. We study properties of the lengths of certain bases of $L$. If $v_1, \dots v_n$ is a basis which is reduced in the sense of Minkowski we show that $\lvert v_k \rvert^2…

We find sharp absolute constants $C_1$ and $C_2$ with the following property: every well-rounded lattice of rank 3 in a Euclidean space has a minimal basis so that the solid angle spanned by these basis vectors lies in the interval…

For coprime integers $N,a,b,c$, with $0<a<b<c<N$, we define the set $$ \{ (na \! \! \! \! \pmod{N}, nb \! \! \! \! \pmod{N}, nc \! \! \! \! \pmod{N}) : 0 \leq n < N\}. $$ We study which parameters $N,a,b,c$ generate point sets with long…
