The optimal four-dimensional lattice quantizer and bounds from Voronoi facets

Abstract

We prove that the root lattice D4 uniquely minimizes the normalized second moment among four-dimensional lattices, up to similarity. The computer-assisted proof combines the classification of secondary cones with integration over Voronoi cells and weighted sums of squares. In dimensions at least two, comparison with circular cones gives a lower bound in terms of the number of Voronoi facets, improving the sphere bound and recovering the hexagonal value in dimension two. We prove Ajjanagadde's circular-cone concavity conjecture and deduce the lattice case of his conjectured quantization bound.
