Successive Minima and Lattice Points

度量几何 2007-05-23 v1

摘要

The main purpose of this note is to prove an upper bound on the number of lattice points of a centrally symmetric convex body in terms of the successive minima of the body. This bound improves on former bounds and narrows the gap towards a lattice point analogue of Minkowski's second theorem on successive minima. Minkowski's proof of his second theorem is rather lengthy and it was also criticised as obscure. We present a short proof of Minkowski's second theorem on successive minima, which, however, is based on the ideas of Minkowski's proof.
