We show that for every n-dimensional lattice L the torus Rn/L can be embedded with distortion O(nċ√logn) into a Hilbert space. This improves the exponential upper bound of O(n3n/2) due to Khot and Naor (FOCS 2005, Math. Annal. 2006) and gets close to their lower bound of Ω(√n). We also obtain tight bounds for certain families of lattices.
Our main new ingredient is an embedding that maps any point u ∈ Rn/L to a Gaussian function centered at u in the Hilbert space L2(Rn/L). The proofs involve Gaussian measures on lattices, the smoothing parameter of lattices and Korkine-Zolotarev bases.
