contents We show that, assuming NP $\not\subseteq$ $\cap_{δ> 0}$DTIME$\left(\exp{n^δ}\right)$, the shortest vector problem for lattices of rank $n$ in any finite $\ell_p$ norm is hard to approximate within a factor of $2^{(\log n)^{1 - o(1)}}$, via a deterministic reduction. Previously, for the Euclidean case $p=2$, even hardness of the exact shortest vector problem was not known under a deterministic reduction.
