Complexity of integer programming with added predicates
A classical theorem in Integer Programming by Lenstra says that any integer system
$$A x \le b$$
can be solved in polynomial time, where $A \in \mathbb{Z}^{m \times n}, x \in \mathbb{Z}^n, b \in \...

Proof for non-existence of short integer program for squares
We do not know if $P=NP$ or not or if there is a superfast integer mutiplication algorithm. But I do not think either assumption is necessary to answer this question.
Is there a way to show within an ...

Nonexistence of short integer program sequence which generates squares
Is there a way to show within an integer program with constant number of variables and constraints of length $poly(\log B)$ (say length $\leq10^{1000000}\log B$), it is not possible for a variable to ...

Will an integer program to deterministically factor integers help derandomize $\mathbb F_q[x]$ factoring?
There are many analogies between the objects $\mathbb F_q[x]$ and $\mathbb Z$.
Supposing there is a fixed (say $10^9$) dimension linear integer program (describable without any objective function) in ...

Questions in number theory related to $NC$ and $P$-completeness
Given $a,b\in\mathbb N$ find $\operatorname{GCD}(a,b)$.
Given $a,b,c\in\mathbb N$ find $x,y\in\mathbb Z$ such that $ax+by=c$.
Euclidean algorithm solves both.
My question is if either 1 or 2 is in ...

Does Barvinok's algorithm apply to convex integer program?
Barvinok provided a counting algorithm to count number of integer solutions to integer linear program that runs in polynomial time if the number of integer variables is fixed.
If we have convex ...

Domination in Nice Lattices
Let an integer vector be nice when it has only two nonzero components, which sum to zero. So (0, 0, 3, 0, -3) and (-1, 0, 1, 0, 0) are examples of nice vectors in $n=5$ dimensions.
Call a lattice ...
