Packing minima and lattice points in convex bodies

Martin Henk, Matthias Schymura and Fei Xue
Vol. 10 (2021), No. 1, 25–48
DOI: 10.2140/moscow.2021.10.25
Abstract

Motivated by long-standing conjectures on the discretization of classical inequalities in the geometry of numbers, we investigate a new set of parameters, which we call packing minima, associated to a convex body K and a lattice Λ. These numbers interpolate between the successive minima of K and the inverse of the successive minima of the polar body of K and can be understood as packing counterparts to the covering minima of Kannan & Lovász (1988).

As our main results, we prove sharp inequalities that relate the volume and the number of lattice points in K to the sequence of packing minima. Moreover, we extend classical transference bounds and discuss a natural class of examples in detail.
