In the previous paper, we studied the "Toy models for D. H. Lehmer's conjecture". Namely, we showed that the m-th Fourier coefficient of the weighted theta series of the $\mathbb{Z}^2$-lattice and the $A_{2}$-lattice does not vanish, when…

In part I: We find a series physical scales such as 1) Planck scale, 2) Minimal approximate grand unification SU(5), 3) the mass scale of the see saw model right handed or Majorana neutrinoes, some invented scale with many scalar bosons,…

We address the question of which convex shapes, when packed as densely as possible under certain restrictions, fill the least space and leave the most empty space. In each different dimension and under each different set of restrictions,…

We introduce maximal and average coherence on lattices by analogy with these notions on frames in Euclidean spaces. Lattices with low coherence can be of interest in signal processing, whereas lattices with high orthogonality defect are of…

In this note we link symplectic and convex geometry by relating two seemingly different open conjectures: a symplectic isoperimetric-type inequality for convex domains, and Mahler's conjecture on the volume product of centrally symmetric…

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…

Let $\mathbb{L}$ be a lattice in $n$-dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$ reduced in the sense of Korkine and Zolotareff and having a basis of the form $~(A_1,0,0,\cdots$ $,0),$ ~$(a_{2,1},A_2,0,\cdots,0),\cdots,$…

Linnik proved in the late 1950's the equidistribution of integer points on large spheres under a congruence condition. The congruence condition was lifted in 1988 by Duke (building on a break-through by Iwaniec) using completely different…

Following a suggestion due to Bardeen and Pearson, we formulate an effective light-front Hamiltonian for large-N gauge theory in (2+1)-dimensions. Two space-time dimensions are continuous and the remaining space dimension is discretised on…

Let $f(n)$ denote the maximum total length of the sides of $n$ squares packed inside a unit square. Erd\H{o}s conjectured that $f(k^2+1)=k$. We show that the conjecture is true if we assume that the sides of the squares are parallel to the…

Suppose we count the positive integer lattice points beneath a convex decreasing curve in the first quadrant having equal intercepts. Then stretch in the coordinate directions so as to preserve the area under the curve, and again count…

This paper investigates low-dimensional quantizers from the perspective of complex lattices. We adopt Eisenstein integers and Gaussian integers to define checkerboard lattices $\mathcal{E}_{m}$ and $\mathcal{G}_{m}$. By explicitly linking…

Let $\wedge$ be a lattice in $\mathbb{R}^n$ reduced in the sense of Korkine and Zolotareff having a basis of the form $(A_1,0,0,\ldots,0),(a_{2,1},A_2,0,\ldots,0)$, $\ldots,(a_{n,1},a_{n,2},\ldots,a_{n,n-1},A_n)$ where $A_1, A_2,\ldots,A_n$…

Let $\mathcal{S}$ be a finite set of integer points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, which we assume has many symmetries, and let $P\in\mathbb{R}^d$ be a fixed point. We calculate the distances from $P$ to the points in $\mathcal{S}$ and compare the…

We study the polarization problem in dimension 2 for the honeycomb structure and compare it to the maximal polarization lattice, the hexagonal lattice. As expected, the hexagonal lattice has higher polarization than the honeycomb at all…

We present a natural reverse Minkowski-type inequality for lattices, which gives upper bounds on the number of lattice points in a Euclidean ball in terms of sublattice determinants, and conjecture its optimal form. The conjecture exhibits…

In 1963 Fisher and Stephenson \cite{FS} conjectured that the monomer-monomer correlation on the square lattice is rotationally invariant. In this paper we prove a closely related statement on the hexagonal lattice. Namely, we consider…

We construct a hollow lattice polytope (resp. a hollow lattice simplex) of dimension $14$ (resp.$~404$) and of width $15$ (resp.$~408$). They are the first known hollow lattice polytopes of width larger than dimension. We also construct a…

In this paper we are constructing integer lattice squares, cubes or hypercubes in $\mathbb R^d$ with $d\in \{2,3,4\}$. For squares and cubes we find a complete description of their Ehrhart polynomial. For hypercubes, we compute one of the…

40 years ago, Conway and Sloane proposed using the highly symmetrical Coxeter-Todd lattice $K_{12}$ for quantization, and estimated its second moment. Since then, all published lists identify $K_{12}$ as the best 12-dimensional lattice…
