Pencils of quadratic forms over finite fields
A formula for the number of common zeros of a non-degenerate pencil of quadratic forms is given. This is applied to pencils which count binary strings with an even number of 1’s prescribed distances apart.
متن کاملReal and imaginary quadratic representations of hyperelliptic function fields
A hyperelliptic function field can be always be represented as a real quadratic extension of the rational function field. If at least one of the rational prime divisors is rational over the field of constants, then it also can be represented as an imaginary quadratic extension of the rational function field. The arithmetic in the divisor class group can be realized in the second case by Cantor’...
متن کاملConvex Pencils of Real Quadratic Forms
We study the topology of the set X of the solutions of a system of two quadratic inequalities in the real projective space RPn (e.g. X is the intersection of two real quadrics). We give explicit formulae for its Betti numbers and for those of its double cover in the sphere Sn; we also give similar formulae for level sets of homogeneous quadratic maps to the plane. We discuss some applications o...
متن کاملQuasilinear Quadratic Forms and Function Fields of Quadrics
Let p and q be anisotropic quadratic forms of dimension ≥ 2 over a field F . In a recent article, we formulated a conjecture describing the general constraints which the dimensions of p and q impose on the isotropy index of q after scalar extension to the function field of p. This can be viewed as a generalization of Hoffmann’s Separation Theorem which simultaneously incorporates and refines so...
متن کاملApplications of quadratic D-forms to generalized quadratic forms
In this paper, we study generalized quadratic forms over a division algebra with involution of the first kind in characteristic two. For this, we associate to every generalized quadratic from a quadratic form on its underlying vector space. It is shown that this form determines the isotropy behavior and the isometry class of generalized quadratic forms.
