Algebraic lattices are those obtained from modules in the ring of integers of algebraic number fields through the canonical or twisted embeddings. In turn, well-rounded lattices are those with maximal cardinality of linearly independent…
Given the integral lattice $\Lambda^d$ in $d$-dimensional Euclidean space, partitions of the lattice nodes into orbits of finite-index subgroups of $Aut(\Lambda^d)$ have been computed for $d \leq 4$. These partitions can be interpreted as…
We extend the results of Ozeki on the configurations of extremal even unimodular lattices. Specifically, we show that if L is such a lattice of rank 56, 72, or 96, then L is generated by its minimal-norm vectors.
Cubical rectangles are being defined and explored here over the $n-$dimensional geometric cube $Q_n.$ They form a new class of geometric objects that includes all the edges and all the squares of the $n-$cube. We enumerate and characterize…
In 1980, U. Faigle introduced a sort of finite geometries on posets that are in bijective correspondence with finite semimodular lattices. His result has almost been forgotten in lattice theory. Here we simplify the axiomatization of these…
Lattices and Z-modules in Euclidean space possess an infinitude of subsets that are images of the original set under similarity transformation. We classify such self-similar images according to their indices for certain 4D examples that are…
The purpose of this paper is to study convex bodies $C$ for which there exists no convex body $C^\prime\subsetneq C$ of the same lattice width. Such bodies shall be called ``lattice reduced'', and they occur naturally in the study of the…
This paper is concerned with discrete, uniform subgroups (lattices) of oscillator groups, which are certain semidirect products of the Heisenberg group and the additive group of real numbers. The present paper rectifies the uncertainties in…
A shape's Heesch number is the number of layers of copies of the shape that can be placed around it without gaps or overlaps. Experimentation and exhaustive searching have turned up examples of shapes with finite Heesch numbers up to six,…
We establish dimension-free stability of Webb's sharp simplex slicing (1996). Incidentally, we investigate Lipschitzness of volume of hyperplane central sections of arbitrary (not necessarily symmetric) convex bodies.
A planar semimodular lattice $L$ is \emph{slim} if $\mathbf{M}_3$ is not a sublattice of $L$. In a recent paper, G. Cz\'edli introduced a very powerful diagram type for slim, planar, semimodular lattices. This short note proves the…
We describe a natural generalization of irreducibility in order lattices with arbitrary metrics. We analyse the special cases of valuation metrics and more general metrics for lattices. This article is mainly based on a part of the author's…
This paper is devoted to the classification and studying properties of complex unital $3$-dimensional structurable algebras. We provide a complete list of non-isomorphic classes, identifying five algebras for type $(2, 1)$ and two algebras…
A Leech pair is defined as a pair $(G,S)$, where $S$ is a positive definite even lattice without roots, equipped with a faithful action of a finite group $G$, such that the invariant sublattice of $S$ under the action of $G$ is trivial, and…
Characteristic Lie rings for Toda type 2+1 dimensional lattices are defined. Some properties of these rings are studied. Infinite sequence of special kind modules are introduced. It is proved that for known integrable lattices these modules…
For finite dimensional real Lie algebras, we investigate the existence of an inner product having a basis comprised of geodesic elements. We give several existence and non-existence results in certain cases: unimodular solvable Lie algebras…
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…
By studying the action of the Weyl group of a simple Lie algebra on its root lattice, we construct torsion free subgroups of small and explicitly determined index in a large infinite class of Coxeter groups. One spin-off is the construction…
We find out for which $t$ shells of selfdual lattices and of theirs shadows are spherical $t$-designs. The method uses theta series of lattices, which are modular forms. We analyse fully cubic and Witt lattices, as well as all selfdual…
In this paper we first of all determine all possible genera of (odd and even) definite unimodular lattices over an imaginary-quadratic field. The main questions are whether the partial class numbers of lattices with given Steinitz class…
