S-extremal strongly modular lattices maximize the minimum of the lattice and its shadow simultaneously. They are a direct generalization of the s-extremal unimodular lattices defined in [6]. If the minimum of the lattice is even, then the dimension of an s-extremal lattices can be bounded by the theory of modular forms. This shows that such lattices are also extremal and that there are only finitely many s-extremal strongly modular lattices of even minimum.
Un réseau fortement modulaire est dit s-extrémal, s’il maximise le minimum du réseau et son ombre simultanément. La dimension des réseaux s-extrémaux dont le minimum est pair peut être bornée par la théorie des formes modulaires. En particulier de tels réseaux sont extrémaux.
