Detailed Description

This class implements {Minkowski\/}'s theoretical bounds on the length of the shortest nonzero vector in a lattice.

The length of a vector is computed using the \({\cal L}_2\) norm. The bounding lengths, for a lattice of rank \(k\) containing \(m\) points per unit volume in dimension \(t\), are given by \(\ell_t^* = \gamma_t m^{k/t}\) for \(t \ge k\), where the \(\gamma_t\) are the Minkowski lattice constants.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

LatCommon::NormaMinkowski::NormaMinkowski ( const MScal &  m,
int  k,
int  t,
double  beta = 1 
)

Constructor for the bounds obtained for Minkowski lattices.

The lattices are those of rank \(k\), with \(m\) points per unit volume, in all dimensions \(\le t\). The bias factor beta \(= \beta\) gives more weight to some of the dimensions. Restriction: \(t \le 48\).
