We study the sphere packing problem in Euclidean space where we impose additional constraints on the separations of the center points. We prove that any sphere packing in dimension $48$, with spheres of radii $r$, such that no two centers…
We prove explicit stability estimates for the sphere packing problem in dimensions 8 and 24, showing that, in the lattice case, if a lattice is $\sim \varepsilon$ close to satisfying the optimal density, then it is, in a suitable sense,…
In this paper we prove that no packing of unit balls in Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^8$ has density greater than that of the $E_8$-lattice packing.
We show that there exists a lattice covering of $\mathbb{R}^n$ by Eucledian spheres of equal radius with density $O\big(n \ln^{\beta} n \big)$ as $n\to\infty$, where \begin{align*} \beta := \frac{1}{2} \log_2 \left(\frac{8 \pi…
Particle packing problems have fascinated people since the dawn of civilization, and continue to intrigue mathematicians and scientists. Resurgent interest has been spurred by the recent proof of Kepler's conjecture: the face-centered cubic…
Nearly orthogonal lattices were formally defined in [4], where their applications to image compression were also discussed. The idea of ``near orthogonality" in $2$-dimensions goes back to the work of Gauss. In this paper, we focus on…
The densest local packings of N identical nonoverlapping spheres within a radius Rmin(N) of a fixed central sphere of the same size are obtained using a nonlinear programming method operating in conjunction with a stochastic search of…
We investigate the problem of packing identical hard objects on regular lattices in d dimensions. Restricting configuration space to parallel alignment of the objects, we study the densest packing at a given aspect ratio X. For rectangles…
In 2021, Ordentlich, Regev and Weiss made a breakthrough that the lattice covering density of any $n$-dimensional convex body is upper bounded by $cn^{2}$, improving on the best previous bound established by Rogers in 1959. However, for the…
Given a sphere of any radius $r$ in an $n$-dimensional Euclidean space, we study the coverings of this sphere with solid spheres of radius one. Our goal is to design a covering of the lowest covering density, which defines the average…
We prove that the highest density of non-overlapping translates of a given centrally symmetric convex domain relative to its outer parallel domain of given outer radius is attained by a lattice packing in the Euclidean plane. This…
The densest local packings of N three-dimensional identical nonoverlapping spheres within a radius Rmin(N) of a fixed central sphere of the same size are obtained for selected values of N up to N = 1054. In the predecessor to this paper…
We introduce a parameter space for periodic point sets, given as unions of $m$ translates of point lattices. In it we investigate the behavior of the sphere packing density function and derive sufficient conditions for local optimality.…
We find tight estimates for the minimum number of proper subspaces needed to cover all lattice points in an n-dimensional convex body symmetric about the origin. We also find the order of magnitude of the number of (n-1)-dimensional…
The present work surveys problems in $n$-dimensional space with $n$ large. Early development in the study of packing and covering in high dimensions was motivated by the geometry of numbers. Subsequent results, such as the discovery of the…
Let $\mathcal{P} \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ be a lattice polytope of dimension $d$. Let $b(\mathcal{P})$ denote the number of lattice points belonging to the boundary of $\mathcal{P}$ and $c(\mathcal{P})$ that to the interior of $\mathcal{P}$.…
In this paper we prove an asymptotic lower bound for the sphere packing density in dimensions divisible by four. This asymptotic lower bound improves on previous asymptotic bounds by a constant factor and improves not just lower bounds for…
We generate non-lattice packings of spheres in up to 22 dimensions using the geometrical constraint satisfaction algorithm RRR. Our aggregated data suggest that it is easy to double the density of Ball's lower bound, and more tentatively,…
Using graph-theoretic methods we give a new proof that for all sufficiently large $n$, there exist sphere packings in $\R^n$ of density at least $cn2^{-n}$, exceeding the classical Minkowski bound by a factor linear in $n$. This matches up…
1) We present new lattice sphere packings in Euclid spaces of many dimensions in the range 3332-4096, which are denser than known densest Mrodell-Weil lattice sphere packings in these dimensions. Moreover it is proved that if there were…
