Let (aij) = A be a positive definite n × n symmetric matrix with real entries. To it corresponds a positive definite quadratic form ƒ on Rn: ƒ(x) = txAx = ∑ aijXiXj for x any column vector in Rn. The set of values ƒ(y) for y in Zn — {0} has a minimum m (A) > 0 and the number of “minimal vectors“ y1, … , yr in Zn for which ƒ(yi) = m (A) is finite. By definition, ƒ and A are called eutactic if and only if there are positive numbers s1 ,… , sr such that

We prove that all Euclidean lattices of dimension n ≤ 9 which are generated by their minimal vectors, also possess a basis of minimal vectors. By providing a new counterexample, we show that this is not the case for all dimensions n ≥ 10.

We investigate a connection between two important classes of Euclidean lattices: well-rounded and ideal lattices. A lattice of full rank in a Euclidean space is called well-rounded if its set of minimal vectors spans the whole space. We consider lattices coming from full rings of integers in number fields, proving that only cyclotomic fields give rise to well-rounded lattices. We further study the well-rounded lattices coming from ideals in quadratic rings of integers, showing that there exist infinitely many real and imaginary quadratic number fields containing ideals which give rise to well-rounded lattices in the plane.
