Minkowski’s theorem
In the post about Diophantine approximation, we saw that in order to find “good” rational approximations to a real number, it is enough to prove that given a lattice and a “big enough” box around the origin, the box must … Continue reading
From number theory to geometry of lattices
Number theory can mean a lot of thing to a lot of people. This is a very big part of mathematics, and it contains many areas starting with the elementary number theory (“simple” congruence like arguments), algebraic number theory (e.g. … Continue reading
