Bounds on the Minkowski constants and a function involving
Giulia Pelizzari, James Punch
In 1887, Minkowski determined the least common multiple of the orders of all finite subgroups of ; we refer to this number as . In (Katznelson, 1994), Katzn…

The modified prime sieve for primitive elements in finite fields
Gustav Kjærbye Bagger, James Punch
Let be an integer, a prime power and the finite field with elements. Consider the problem of showing existence of primitive elements in a subset…

An improved upper bound on the covering radius of the logarithmic lattice of
James Punch
Let be endowed with the Euclidean metric. The covering radius of a lattice is the least distance such that, given any point of $\mathbb{…
