Root lattices in number fields

We explore whether a root lattice may be similar to the lattice 𝒪 of integers of a number field K endowed with the inner product (x,y) := TraceK/ℚ(x ⋅ 𝜃(y)), where 𝜃 is an involution of K. We classify all pairs K, 𝜃 such that 𝒪 is similar to either an even root lattice or the root lattice ℤ[K:ℚ]. We...
