  • Abstract
    We show that for every ε > 0, there is a constant p(ε) such that for all integers p ≥ p(ε), it is NP-hard to approximate the shortest vector problem in Lp norm within factor p1 - ε under randomized reductions. For large values of p, this improves the factor 21p/ - δ hardness shown by D. Micciancio (1998).
