On projections of arbitrary lattices
  In this paper we prove that given any two point lattices $\Lambda_1 \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ and $ \Lambda_2 \subset \nobreak \mathbb{R}^{n-k}$, there is a set of $k$ vectors $\bm{v}_i \in \Lambda_1$ such that $\Lambda_2$ is, up to similarity, arbitrarily close to the projection of $\Lambda_1$ onto the orthogonal complement of the subspace spanned by $\bm{v}_1, \ldots, \bm{v}_k$. This result extends the main theorem of \cite{Sloane2} and has applications in communication theory.
