This $219,148 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Division of Mathematical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) supports Clemson University's research on lattice reduction in cryptography and number theory. The key objectives are to: Develop a new algorithm for finding short vectors in ideal lattices, which are critical to the security of many post-quantum cryptographic systems. This algorithm will generalize a recently introduced complex continued fraction method to work over arbitrary number fields. Investigate the potential use of simultaneous approximation lattices for cryptography, as they may offer improved efficiency over generic lattices while still maintaining security. Through this research, the project aims to advance progress toward quantum-resistant cybersecurity solutions. The work involves both theoretical and computational components, providing opportunities for student involvement. Clemson University, a leading public research institution, is the sole awardee on this 3-year grant, which runs from July 1, 2023 through April 30, 2026.
