Abstract: In this article we prove that integral lattices with minimum <= 7 (or <= 9) whose set of minimal vectors form spherical 9-designs (or 11-designs respectively) are extremal, even and unimodular. We furthermore show that there does not exist an integral lattice with minimum <=11 which yields a 13-design.


Consider integral lattices with minimum less or equal 7 (or less or equal 9) whose set of minimal vectors form spherical 9-designs (or 11-designs respectively). In this article the author proves that such lattices are extremal, even, and unimodular. Further, it is shown that there does not exist an integral lattice with minimum less or equal 11 which yields a 13-design.
