Structured lattices and their applications to security

Abstract

Euclidean lattices are an interesting object of study in many regards and can have a rich structure arising from various constructions, e.g., from number field extensions. A particularly interesting class is the one of well-rounded lattices, as they relate to the well-known densest sphere packing problem in geometry, theta function minimization, and the famous Minkowski and Woods conjectures. In addition to being an important mathematical object in their own right, lattices also play a central role in many applications. This paper offers a survey of structured lattices and discusses their recent applications in lattice-based cryptography and secure wireless communications. Our goal is to spark the interest of mathematicians and adjacent communities in these fascinating topics in the intersection of lattices, number theory, cryptography, and wireless communications.

Asymptotic density of k-almost primes

Landau's well known asymptotic formula $$N_k(x):=\ \mid\{n\leq x : Ω(n)=k\}\mid \ \sim \left( \frac{x}{\log x} \right) \frac{(\log\log x)^{k-1}}{(k - 1)!}\ \ (x \rightarrow \infty),$$ which also holds for $$π_k(x):=\ \mid\{n\leq x : ω(n)=k\}\mid,$$ is known to be fairly poor for $k > 1$, and when $k$ is allowed to tend to infinity with $x$, the study of $N_k(x)$ and $π_k(x)$ becomes very technical [1, Chapter II.6, $§$ 6.1, p.200]. I hope to show that the method described below provides not only a more accurate approach, but rather increases in its asymptotic accuracy as $k$ tends to infinity.

Real quadratic base changes for $\mathrm{GL}_3$ and integral periods relations

We prove a $p$-adic divisibility between the automorphic periods of a cuspidal automorphic representation of $\mathrm{GL}_3(\mathbb{Q})$ and the periods of its Arthur-Clozel's base change to some real quadratic field $E$. This generalizes earlier works of Tilouine-Urban and of Hida in the case of classical modular forms. The divisibility we prove involves a new kind of automorphic periods, defined using the middle degree of the cuspidal cohomology of $\mathrm{GL}_3(E)$, instead of the top or bottom degrees. We also investigate the Rogawski's stable base change from the quasi-split unitary group $U_E$ associated with $E$ to $\mathrm{GL}_3(E)$. In this situation, we also obtain some results toward a $p$-adic divisibility of automorphic periods.
