  2. Lattice constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice_constant

    Unit cell definition using parallelepiped with lengths a, b, c and angles between the sides given by α, β, γ [1]. A lattice constant or lattice parameter is one of the physical dimensions and angles that determine the geometry of the unit cells in a crystal lattice, and is proportional to the distance between atoms in the crystal.

  3. Lattice problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice_problem

    In computer science, lattice problems are a class of optimization problems related to mathematical objects called lattices.The conjectured intractability of such problems is central to the construction of secure lattice-based cryptosystems: lattice problems are an example of NP-hard problems which have been shown to be average-case hard, providing a test case for the security of cryptographic ...

  4. Lattice (order) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice_(order)

    A lattice is an abstract structure studied in the mathematical subdisciplines of order theory and abstract algebra.It consists of a partially ordered set in which every pair of elements has a unique supremum (also called a least upper bound or join) and a unique infimum (also called a greatest lower bound or meet).

  5. Gauss circle problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauss_circle_problem

    This problem is known as the primitive circle problem, as it involves searching for primitive solutions to the original circle problem. [9] It can be intuitively understood as the question of how many trees within a distance of r are visible in the Euclid's orchard , standing in the origin.

  6. Lattice (group) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice_(group)

    In geometry and group theory, a lattice in the real coordinate space is an infinite set of points in this space with the properties that coordinate-wise addition or subtraction of two points in the lattice produces another lattice point, that the lattice points are all separated by some minimum distance, and that every point in the space is within some maximum distance of a lattice point.

  7. Crystal structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_structure

    The lengths of principal axes/edges, of unit cell and angles between them are lattice constants, also called lattice parameters or cell parameters. The symmetry properties of crystal are described by the concept of space groups. [1] All possible symmetric arrangements of particles in three-dimensional space may be described by 230 space groups.

  8. Modular lattice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_lattice

    A modular lattice of order dimension 2. As with all finite 2-dimensional lattices, its Hasse diagram is an st-planar graph. In the branch of mathematics called order theory, a modular lattice is a lattice that satisfies the following self-dual condition, Modular law a ≤ b implies a ∨ (x ∧ b) = (a ∨ x) ∧ b

  9. Hermite constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermite_constant

    In mathematics, the Hermite constant, named after Charles Hermite, determines how long a shortest element of a lattice in Euclidean space can be. The constant γ n for integers n > 0 is defined as follows. For a lattice L in Euclidean space R n with unit covolume, i.e. vol(R n /L) = 1, let λ 1 (L) denote the least length of a nonzero element of L.
