Lattices and sphere packing - when #Math gets really fun and interesting. A recent development in the #Mathematics world raises the ante in the pursuit of optimal sphere packing in multiple high dimensions. Turns out #lattices and ellipsoids are central to the latest piece of the puzzle. This is […]

New Sphere-Packing Record Stems From an Unexpected Source In math, the search for optimal patterns never ends. The sphere-packing problem — which asks how to cram balls into a (high-dimensional) box as efficiently as possible — is no exception. It has enticed...
