Abstract

Let F 1,..., F s Z[X 1,...,X n ] be quasiconvex polynomials of degree bounded by d≥2. Let L be an upper bound for the binary length of their coefficients. We show that the system F 1≤0,..., F s ≤0 admits an integer solution if and only if there exists such a solution with binary length bounded by (sd)cn · L. (Here c>0 is a constant independent on s, d, n and L). We obtain a similar geometric bound for the corresponding minimization problem. The simply exponential feature of our bound is intrinsic to this problem.
