cybics/math/shortest vector problem
the root problem of lattice cryptography: in a lattice of points generated by integer combinations of basis vectors, find the shortest nonzero one. easy in two dimensions, believed exponentially hard in hundreds โ€” for quantum computers too, which is why lattices survive Shor where discrete logsโ€ฆ
