چکیده
be a positive definite quadratic form with determinant D R and integer coefficients a ;Call it an even form if all a ; ; are even ., an odd form if at least one a ;; is odd . Then Í,, is called non-decomposable, if it cannot be expressed as a sum of two non-negative quadratic forms with integer coefficients . Mordell 1 ) proved that f, can always be decomposed into a sum of five squares of linear forms with integer coefficients . Ko 2 ) proved that fn can be expressed as a sum of n + 3 integral linear squares, when n=3, 4, 5 . When n = 6, Mordell 3 ) proved that the form

Approximating the Distributions of Singular Quadratic Expressions and their Ratios
Noncentral indefinite quadratic expressions in possibly non- singular normal vectors are represented in terms of the difference of two positive definite quadratic forms and an independently distributed linear combination of standard normal random variables. This result also ap- plies to quadratic forms in singular normal vectors for which no general representation is currently available. The ...
متن کاملOn the real zeros of positive semi-definite biquadratic forms
For a positive semi-definite biquadratic forms F in (3, 3) variables, we prove that if F has a finite number but at least 7 real zeros Z(F ), then it is not a sum of squares. We show also that if F has at least 11 zeros, then it has infinitely many real zeros and it is a sum of squares. It can be seen as the counterpart for biquadratic forms as the results of Choi, Lam and Reznick for positive ...
متن کاملThe Legendre-Fenchel Conjugate of the Product of Two Positive Definite Quadratic Forms
It is well-known that the Legendre-Fenchel conjugate of a positive-definite quadratic form can be explicitly expressed as another positive-definite quadratic form, and that the conjugate of the sum of several positive-definite quadratic forms can be expressed via inf-convolution. However, the Legendre-Fenchel conjugate of the product of two positive-definite quadratic forms is not clear at pres...
متن کامل2-universal Positive Definite Integral Quinary Quadratic Forms
As a generalization of the famous four square theorem of Lagrange, Ramanujan and Willerding found all positive definite integral quaternary quadratic forms that represent all positive integers. In this paper, we find all positive definite integral quinary quadratic forms that represent all positive definite integral binary quadratic forms. We also discuss recent results on positive definite int...
متن کاملParallel Jobs Scheduling with a Specific Due Date: Asemi-definite Relaxation-based Algorithm
This paper considers a different version of the parallel machines scheduling problem in which the parallel jobs simultaneously requirea pre-specifiedjob-dependent number of machines when being processed.This relaxation departs from one of the classic scheduling assumptions. While the analytical conditions can be easily statedfor some simple models, a graph model approach is required when confli...
