Abstract

Up to now there has been an algorithm for the calculation of Minkowski-reduced lattice bases to dimensionn=6 or at most ton=7. A new algorithm is presented which is practicable for greater dimensions and requires less computation time.

Zusammenfassung

Bisher gab es nur einen Algorithmus für die Berechnung von Minkowski-reduzierten Gitterbasen bis zur Dimensionn=6 oder höchstens bisn=7. Es wird nun ein neues Verfahren angegeben, das auch für höhere Dimensionen praktikabel ist und wenig Rechenzeit benötigt.
