Čebyševskij sbornik, Tome 20 (2019) no. 3, pp. 43-73.

Résumé

This brief review contents the description of most important concept of geometry or numbers and its main application. It is not included the geometry of quadratic forms — interesting but the special part of a number theory (and a geometry of numbers) standing on joining point of the geometry of numbers and the quadratic forms theory.

Détail

Keywords: arithmetical minimum, star body, radial function, covering, lattice, packing.
