Abstract

Let 1@?pNP, it is hard to approximate the Minimum Solutions of Linear Diophantine Equations in @?"p norm within any constant factor and it is also hard to approximate the Minimum Solutions of Linear Diophantine Equations in @?"p norm within the factor n^c^/^l^o^g^l^o^g^n for some constant c0 where n is the number of variables in the equations.
