AbstractWe show that a system of r quadratic forms over a 𝔭-adic field in at least 4r+1 variables will have a non-trivial zero as soon as the cardinality of the residue field is large enough. In contrast, the Ax–Kochen theorem [J. Ax and S. Kochen, Diophantine problems over local fields. I, Amer. J. Math. 87 (1965), 605–630] requires the characteristic to be large in terms of the degree of the field over ℚp. The proofs use a 𝔭-adic minimization technique, together with counting arguments over the residue class field, based on considerations from algebraic geometry.

Abstract We consider smooth representations of the unit group G = A × G=\mathcal{A}^{\times} of a finite-dimensional split basic algebra 𝒜 over a non-Archimedean local field. In particular, we prove a version of Gutkin’s conjecture, namely, we prove that every irreducible smooth representation of 𝐺 is compactly induced by a one-dimensional representation of the unit group of some subalgebra of 𝒜. We also discuss admissibility and unitarisability of smooth representations of 𝐺.
