Abstract

We revisit the post-processing phase of Chen's Karst-wave quantum lattice algorithm (Chen, 2024) in the Learning with Errors (LWE) parameter regime. Conditioned on a transcript EE, the post-Step 7 coordinate state on (ZM)n(\mathbb{Z}_M)^n is supported on an affine grid line {jΔ+v(E)+M2kmodM:jZ, kK}\{\, j\Delta + v^{\ast}(E) + M_2 k \bmod M : j \in \mathbb{Z},\ k \in \mathcal{K} \,\}, with Δ=2D2b\Delta = 2D^2 b, M=2M2=2D2QM = 2M_2 = 2D^2 Q, and QQ odd. The amplitudes include a quadratic Karst-wave chirp exp(2πij2/Q)\exp(-2\pi i j^2 / Q) and an unknown run-dependent offset v(E)v^{\ast}(E). We show that Chen's Steps 8-9 can be replaced by a single exact post-processing routine: measure the deterministic residue τ:=X1modD2\tau := X_1 \bmod D^2, obtain the run-local class v1,Q:=v1(E)modQv_{1,Q} := v_1^{\ast}(E) \bmod Q as explicit side information in our access model, apply a v1,Qv_{1,Q}-dependent diagonal quadratic phase on X1X_1 to cancel the chirp, and then apply QFTZMn\mathrm{QFT}_{\mathbb{Z}_M}^{\otimes n} to the coordinate registers. The routine never needs the full offset v(E)v^{\ast}(E). Under Additional Conditions AC1-AC5 on the front end, a measured Fourier outcome uZMnu \in \mathbb{Z}_M^n satisfies the resonance b,u0(modQ)\langle b, u \rangle \equiv 0 \pmod Q with probability 1o(1)1 - o(1). Moreover, conditioned on resonance, the reduced outcome umodQu \bmod Q is exactly uniform on the dual hyperplane H={vZQn:b,v0(modQ)}H = \{\, v \in \mathbb{Z}_Q^n : \langle b, v \rangle \equiv 0 \pmod Q \,\}.
