Computations of Cyclotomic Lattices
Christian Batut, H.‐G. Quebbemann, Rudolf Scharlau · Experimental Mathematics · 1995
We study even modular lattices having level l and dimension 2(p − 1), for p prime, and arising from the ideal class group of the p-th cyclotomic extension of Q(√−l). After giving the basic theory we concentrate on Galois-invariant ideals, obtain computational results on minimal vectors and isometries, and identify several old or new extremal lattices.
