Abstract

Let S,T be n×n integral matrices and one of them positive definite. We develop a method to decide whether a solution X∈ℤn×n of XtrSX=T exists and, if the answer is affirmative, an algorithm for the computation of X. Some applications in algebraic number theory and lattice construction are presented.
