Niemeier lattice

In mathematics, a Niemeier lattice is one of the 24 positive definite even unimodular lattices of rank 24,which were classified by Hans-Volker Niemeier. gave a simplified proof of the classification. has a sentence mentioning that he found more than 10 such lattices, but gives no further details. One example of a Niemeier lattice is the Leech lattice. (Wikipedia).

Phong NGUYEN - Recent progress on lattices's computations 1

This is an introduction to the mysterious world of lattice algorithms, which have found many applications in computer science, notably in cryptography. We will explain how lattices are represented by computers. We will present the main hard computational problems on lattices: SVP, CVP and

History of science 7: Did Witt discover the Leech lattice?

In about 1970 the German mathematician Witt claimed to have discovered the Leech lattice many years before Leech. This video explains what the Leech lattice is and examines the evidence for Witt's claim. Lieven Lebruyn discussed this question on his blog: http://www.neverendingbooks.org/w

Counting points on the E8 lattice with modular forms (theta functions) | #SoME2

In this video, I show a use of modular forms to answer a question about the E8 lattice. This video is meant to serve as an introduction to theta functions of lattices and to modular forms for those with some knowledge of vector spaces and series. -------------- References: (Paper on MIT

Nihar Gargava - Random lattices as sphere packings

In 1945, Siegel showed that the expected value of the lattice-sums of a function over all the lattices of unit covolume in an n-dimensional real vector space is equal to the integral of the function. In 2012, Venkatesh restricted the lattice- sum function to a collection of lattices that h
