The main objective of this thesis is a classification project for integral lattices. Using Kneser's neighbour method we have developed the computer program tn to classify complete genera of integral lattices. Main results are detailed…
We show that for large enough $n$, the number of non-isomorphic pseudoline arrangements of order $n$ is greater than $2^{c\cdot n^2}$ for some constant $c > 0.2604$, improving the previous best bound of $c>0.2083$ by Dumitrescu and Mandal…
We give an explicit upper bound on the volume of lattice simplices with fixed positive number of interior lattice points. The bound differs from the conjectural sharp upper bound only by a linear factor in the dimension. This improves…
We prove that cocompact arithmetic lattices in a simple Lie group are uniformly discrete if and only if the Salem numbers are uniformly bounded away from $1$. We also prove an analogous result for semisimple Lie groups. Finally, we shed…
We show that the number of lines in an $m$--homogeneous supersolvable line arrangement is upper bounded by $3m-3$ and we classify the $m$--homogeneous supersolvable line arrangements with two modular points up-to lattice-isotopy. A lower…
We discuss the local analysis of Gaussian potential energy of modular lattices. We present examples of $2$-modular lattices -- such as the $16$-dimensional Barnes-Wall lattice -- and $3$-modular lattices -- such as the $12$-dimensional…
A planar (upper) semimodular lattice $L$ is slim if the five-element nondistributive modular lattice $M_3$ does not occur among its sublattices. (Planar lattices are finite by definition.) Slim rectangular lattices as particular slim planar…
In this article, we study new methods for constructing uninorms on bounded lattices. First, we present new methods for constructing uninorms on bounded lattices under the additional constraints and prove that some of these constraints are…
In the first part of the paper, we consider the relation between kissing number and the secrecy gain. We show that on an $n=24m+8k$-dimensional even unimodular lattice, if the shortest vector length is $\geq 2m$, then as the number of…
We prove that there are only finitely many even lattices L of signature (2,n) with n>14 such that the modular variety defined by the stable orthogonal group of L is not of general type.
A lattice is $(1+1+2)$-generated if it has a four-element generating set such that exactly two of the four generators are comparable. We prove that the lattice Quo$(n)$ of all quasiorders (also known as preorders) of an $n$-element set is…
Unimodular triangulations of lattice polytopes arise in algebraic geometry, commutative algebra, integer programming and, of course, combinatorics. In this article, we review several classes of polytopes that do have unimodular…
We explicitly describe, in the language of four-dimensional N=1 supersymmetric field theory, what happens when the moduli of a heterotic Calabi-Yau compactification change so as to make the internal non-Abelian gauge fields…
Maximally supersymmetric Yang--Mills theory in four dimensions can be formulated on a space-time lattice while exactly preserving a single supersymmetry. Here we explore in detail this lattice theory, paying particular attention to its…
We conjecture that for all regular lattices b(n) is asymptotically of the form in eq.(A1). (-1)^{n+1} b(n) = exp( k(-1) n + k(0) ln(n) + k(1) / n + k(2) / n^(2)...) (A1) We restrict testing this to lattices for which we know the first 20…
We show that the second minimum of the Barnes-Wall lattices is a least $3/2$ of the minimum.
A Banaschewski function on a bounded lattice L is an antitone self-map of L that picks a complement for each element of L. We prove a set of results that include the following: (1) Every countable complemented modular lattice has a…
We prove a highly uniform stability or "almost-near" theorem for dual lattices of lattices $L \subseteq \Bbb R^n$. More precisely, we show that, for a vector $x$ from the linear span of a lattice $L \subseteq \Bbb R^n$, subject to…
Let G be a topological Kac-Moody group of rank 2 with symmetric Cartan matrix, defined over a finite field F_q. An example is G = SL(2,F_q((t^{-1}))). We determine a positive lower bound on the covolumes of cocompact lattices in G, and…
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…
