Sinossi

Studies two algorithms in detail: the ellipsoid method and the simultaneous diophantine approximation method.

Descrizione del libro

Describes use of the simultaneous diophantine method to develop sophisticated rounding procedures. Then a model is described to compute upper and lower bounds on various measures of convex bodies. Use of the two algorithms is brought together by the author in a study of polyhedra with rational vertices.
