Splitting full matrix algebras over algebraic number fields
Let K be an algebraic number field of degree d and discriminant D over Q. Let
A be an associative algebra over K given by structure constants such that A is
isomorphic to the algebra M_n(K) of n by n matrices over K for some positive
integer n. Suppose that d, n and D are bounded. Then an isomorphism of A with
M_n(K) can be constructed by a polynomial time ff-algorithm. (An ff-algorithm
is a deterministic procedure which is allowed to call oracles for factoring
integers and factoring univariate polynomials over finite fields.)
As a consequence, we obtain a polynomial time ff-algorithm to compute
isomorphisms of central simple algebras of bounded degree over K.Comment: 15 pages; Theorem 2 and Lemma 8 correcte
Algebraic number theory and code design for Rayleigh fading channels
Algebraic number theory is having an increasing impact in code design for many different coding applications, such as single antenna fading channels and more recently, MIMO systems.
Extended work has been done on single antenna fading channels, and algebraic lattice codes have been proven to be an effective tool. The general framework has been settled in the last ten years and many explicit code constructions based on algebraic number theory are now available.
The aim of this work is to provide both an overview on algebraic lattice code designs for Rayleigh fading channels, as well as a tutorial introduction to algebraic number theory. The basic facts of this mathematical field will be illustrated by many examples and by the use of a computer algebra freeware in order to make it more accessible

A Siegel cusp form of degree 12 and weight 12
The theta series of the two unimodular even positive definite lattices of
rank 16 are known to be linearly dependent in degree at most 3 and linearly
independent in degree 4. In this paper we consider the next case of the 24
Niemeier lattices of rank 24. The associated theta series are linearly
dependent in degree at most 11 and linearly independent in degree 12. The
resulting Siegel cusp form of degree 12 and weight 12 is a Hecke eigenform
which seems to have interesting properties.Comment: 12 pages, plain te
Ring-LWE Cryptography for the Number Theorist
In this paper, we survey the status of attacks on the ring and polynomial
learning with errors problems (RLWE and PLWE). Recent work on the security of
these problems [Eisentr\"ager-Hallgren-Lauter, Elias-Lauter-Ozman-Stange] gives
rise to interesting questions about number fields. We extend these attacks and
survey related open problems in number theory, including spectral distortion of
an algebraic number and its relationship to Mahler measure, the monogenic
property for the ring of integers of a number field, and the size of elements
of small order modulo q.Comment: 20 Page
Algebraic lattice constellations: bounds on performance
In this work, we give a bound on performance of any full-diversity lattice constellation constructed from algebraic number fields. We show that most of the already available constructions are almost optimal in the sense that any further improvement of the minimum product distance would lead to a negligible coding gain. Furthermore, we discuss constructions, minimum product distance, and bounds for full-diversity complex rotated Z[i]/sup n/-lattices for any dimension n, which avoid the need of component interleaving
