内容简介：

We present reductions from lattice problems in the l_2 norm to the corresponding problems in other norms such as l_1, l_\infty (and in fact in any other l_p norm where 1\leq p \leq\infty). We consider lattice problems such as the Shortest Vector Problem (SVP), ShortestIndependent Vector Problem (SIVP), Closest Vector Problem (CVP) and the Closest Vector Problem with Preprocessing (CVPP).The reductions are based on embeddings of normed spaces.Among other things, our reductions imply that the Shortest Vector Problem in the l_1 norm and the Closest Vector Problem with Preprocessing in the l_\infty norm are hard toapproximate to within any constant (and beyond). Previously, the former problem was known to be hard to approximate to within 2-\eps, while no hardness result was known for the latter problem.

Joint work with Oded Regev.
