Lattice problems in NP ∩ coNP

Aharonov, Dorit, Regev, Oded·2005·Journal of the ACM

Abstract

We show that the problems of approximating the shortest and closest vector in a lattice to within a factor of √n lie in NP intersect coNP. The result (almost) subsumes the three mutually-incomparable previous results regarding these lattice problems: Banaszczyk [1993], Goldreich and Goldwasser [2000], and Aharonov and Regev [2003]. Our technique is based on a simple fact regarding succinct approximation of functions using their Fourier series over the lattice. This technique might be useful elsewhere---we demonstrate this by giving a simple and efficient algorithm for one other lattice problem (CVPP) improving on a previous result of Regev[2003]. An interesting fact is that our result emerged from a “dequantization” of our previous quantum result in Aharonov and Regev [2003]. This route to proving purely classical results might be beneficial elsewhere.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
