Algorithm to solve SVP (shortest vector problem) using LLL reduction

I'm trying to write a C++ program to solve the shortest vector problem. The program is given a basis of a vector space $V$ and needs to find the shortest non-zero vector in the lattice generated by ...

Does randomization make a big difference in the output of the BKZ algorithm?

We all know that block Korkine-Zolotarev (BKZ) algorithm is essentially a deterministic lattice reduction algorithm. However, in the actual implementation, the BKZ algorithm contains some ...

LLL on Knapsack-eque problem

Given integers $s_1, \dots , s_n$ and target integer $t$, I'm trying to find small integer coefficients $x_1, \dots , x_n$ such that: $$ t \approx x_1 s_1 + \dots +x_ns_n $$ Taking inspiration from ...

How does the lengths of the Gram-Schmidt orthogonal basis of a lattice basis change after lll reduction?

Assuming there is a lattice basis $B=\{b_1,...,b_n\}$, we use $B^*=\{b_1^*,...,b_n^*\}$ to denote the Gram-Schmidt orthogonal basis, where $b_i^*=\pi_i(b_i)$ and $\pi_i(b_i)$ denotes the projection of ...

How "unorthogonal" can a LLL-reduced basis be?

I have been recently studying LLL-reduction. I get from the size condition and Lovasz condition that the basis are guaranteed to be somewhat orthogonal. But I couldn't figure out how orthogonal the ...

Example of bad basis for lattices (worst-case for LLL)

Summary. Given some dimension $n$ (say $n=50$), is it possible to describe explicitly a lattice $L$ and a basis $B$ of $L$ such that $$ \frac{ \| LLL(B)_1 \| }{ \lambda_1(L) } > 1.02^n $$ where $...

NTL: Solve the closest vector problem for non-square matrix using LLL/Nearest Plane Algorithm

Assume I have a matrix $A \in \mathbb{Z}^{m \times n}$, $m > n$, which forms a basis of a lattice. Given a vector target vector $t = Ax + e$, $t,e \in \mathbb{Z}^m$,$x \in \mathbb{Z}^n$, I want to ...

Gram-Schmidt coefficients in LLL algorithm

To my understanding the LLL lattice reduction algorithm starts with a set of integer vectors $\{b_1, \dots, b_2\}$, which span a lattice, and tries to generate a new basis of shorter vectors of the ...

Introduction to LLL algorithm applied to linear modular inequalities

What is the Lenstra–Lenstra–Lovász lattice basis reduction algorithm about? How is it applied to solve for $x\pmod m$ a system of modular inequalities $(u_i\,x+v_i\bmod m)<w$ for $0\le i<n$? I'm ...

What is the minimal angle between two LLL reduced vectors?

What is the minimal angle between two LLL reduced vectors? It seems it should be 60 degree as $|\mu_{i,j}| \leq \frac{1}{2}$. If we make the upper bound of $\mu_{i,j}$ by 1/3, can we get better ...

Why is the Lovász condition used in the LLL algorithm?

The LLL algorithm is used to approximate the Shortest Vector Problem, i.e., it outputs a reduced basis. Such a basis will satisfy two conditions: $$ \forall i \gt j. \quad \lvert\mu_{ij}\rvert \le \...

Problem with LLL reduction on truncated LCG schemes

I am struggling to apply Freize et al. paper to break a truncated LCG. A truncated LCG is a pseudo random generator that outputs the $n$ leading bits $y_i$ of $x_i$, where $(x_i)$ is such that $x_{...
