Abstract

We present an efficient variant of LLL-reduction of lattice bases in the sense of LENSTRA, LENSTRA, LOVáSZ. We organize LLL-reduction in segments of size k. Local LLL-reduction of segments is done using local coordinates of dimension k. We introduce segment LLL-reduced bases, a variant of LLL-reduced bases achieving a slightly weaker notion of reducedness, but speeding up the reduction time of lattices of dimension n by a factor n. We also introduce a variant of LLL-reduction using iterated segments. The resulting reduction algorithm runs in O(n3 log2 n) arithmetic steps for integer lattices of dimension n with basis vectors of length 2n.
