Steinitz classes of unimodular lattices

چکیده

For each prime l with l ≡ 7 (mod 8), we define an action of the ring O = Z[ 2(1 + √ −l)] on the unimodular lattice D l+1 using a Paley matrix. We determine the isomorphism class of D l+1 as an O-module. In particular we show that unless l = 7, D l+1 is not a free O-module. We note a consequence for the Leech lattice.

On the Classification of Lattices Over ℚ(√-3) Which Are Even Unimodular ℤ-Lattices of Rank 32

We classify the lattices of rank 16 over the Eisenstein integers which are even unimodular Z-lattices (of dimension 32). There are exactly 80 unitary isometry classes.

Unimodular Minimal Structures

A strongly minimal structure D is called unimodular if any two finite-to-one maps with the same domain and range have the same degree; that is if/4: (/-»• V is everywhere fc4-to-l, then kx = kc,. THEOREM. Unimodular strongly minimal structures are locally modular. This extends Zil'ber's theorem on locally finite strongly minimal sets, Urbanik's theorem on free algebras with the Steinitz propert...

Modular Lattices from a Variation of Construction A over Number Fields

We consider a variation of Construction A of lattices from linear codes based on two classes of number fields, totally real and CM Galois number fields. We propose a generic construction with explicit generator and Gram matrices, then focus on modular and unimodular lattices, obtained in the particular cases of totally real, respectively, imaginary, quadratic fields. Our motivation comes from c...

Unimodular lattices in dimensions 14 and 15 over the Eisenstein integers

All indecomposable unimodular hermitian lattices in dimensions 14 and 15 over the ring of integers in Q( √ −3) are determined. Precisely one lattice in dimension 14 and two lattices in dimension 15 have minimal norm 3. In 1978 W. Feit [10] classified the unimodular hermitian lattices of dimensions up to 12 over the ring Z[ω] of Eisenstein integers, where ω is a primitive third root of unity. Th...

A mass formula for unimodular lattices with no roots

We derive a mass formula for n-dimensional unimodular lattices having any prescribed root system. We use Katsurada’s formula for the Fourier coefficients of Siegel Eisenstein series to compute these masses for all root systems of even unimodular 32-dimensional lattices and odd unimodular lattices of dimension n ≤ 30. In particular, we find the mass of even unimodular 32dimensional lattices with...
