An LLL Algorithm for Module Lattices

A lattice is a discrete subgroup (i.e., $\mathbb Z$-module) of $\mathbb R^n$ (where $\mathbb Z$ and $\mathbb R$ are the sets of integers and real numbers). The LLL algorithm is a central algorithm to manipulate lattice bases. It takes as input a basis of a Euclidean lattice, and, within a polynomial number of operations, it outputs another basis of the same lattice but consisting of rather short vectors.
