Abstract
Let $E_s(N)$ be the average number of local minima of $s$-dimensional integer lattices with determinant equals $N$. We prove the following estimates
$$
\frac{2^{?1}}{(s?1)!}+O_s\left(\frac{1}{\ln N}\right) \le \frac{E_s(N)}{\ln^{s?1}N} \le \frac{2^s}{(s?1)!}+O_s\left(\frac{1}{\ln N}\right)
$$
\noindent for any prime N. Using this result we have a new lower bound for maximum number of local minima of integer lattices.
