Abstract Let 𝑚 ∈ ℕ, 𝑓 be a positive definite, integral, primitive, quaternary quadratic form of the determinant 𝑑 and let ρ(𝑓,𝑚) be the corresponding singular series. When studying the best estimates for ρ(𝑓,𝑚) with respect to 𝑑 and 𝑚 we proved in [Gogishvili, Trudy Tbiliss. Univ. 346: 72–77, 2004] that where 𝑏(𝑘) is the product of distinct prime factors of 16𝑘 if 𝑘 ≠ 1 and 𝑏(𝑘) = 3 if 𝑘 = 1. The present paper proves a more precise estimate where 𝑑 = 𝑑0𝑑1, if 𝑝 > 2; 𝑕(2) ⩾ –4. The last estimate for ρ(𝑓,𝑚) as a general result for quaternary quadratic forms of the above-mentioned type is unimprovable in a certain sense.

For a positive integer d and a non-negative integer a, let Sd,a be the set of all integers of the form dn + a for any non-negative integer n. A (positive definite integral) quadratic form f is said to be Sd,a-universal if it represents all integers in the set Sd, a, and is said to be Sd,a-regular if it represents all integers in the non-empty set Sd,a ∩ Q((f)), where Q(gen(f)) is the set of all integers that are represented by the genus of f. In this paper, we prove that there is a polynomial U(x,y) ∈ ℚ[x,y] (R(x,y) ∈ ℚ[x,y]) such that the discriminant df for any Sd,a-universal (Sd,a-regular) ternary quadratic forms is bounded by U(d,a) (respectively, R(d,a)).

For a positive definite integral ternary quadratic form [Formula: see text], let [Formula: see text] be the number of representations of an integer [Formula: see text] by [Formula: see text]. The famous Minkowski–Siegel formula implies that if the class number of [Formula: see text] is one, then [Formula: see text] can be written as a constant multiple of a product of local densities which are easily computable. In this paper, we consider the case when the spinor genus of [Formula: see text] contains only one class. In this case the above also holds if [Formula: see text] is not contained in a set of finite number of square classes which are easily computable. By using this fact, we prove some extension of the recent results on both the representations of generalized Bell ternary forms and the representations of ternary quadratic forms with some congruence conditions.

Let 𝔬 be the ring of integers in a number field. An integral quadratic form over 𝔬 is called regular if it represents all integers in 𝔬 that are represented by its genus. In [13,14] Watson proved that there are only finitely many inequivalent positive definite primitive integral regular ternary quadratic forms over ℤ. In this paper, we generalize Watson's result to totally positive regular ternary quadratic forms over [Formula: see text]. We also show that the same finiteness result holds for totally positive definite spinor regular ternary quadratic forms over [Formula: see text], and thus extends the corresponding finiteness results for spinor regular quadratic forms over ℤ obtained in [1,3].

Let be a positive definite binary quadratic form with real coefficients and discriminant b2 − 4ac = −1.Among such forms, let . The Epstein zeta function of f is denned to beRankin [7], Cassels [1], Ennola [5], and Diananda [4] between them proved that for every real s > 0,We prove a corresponding result for theta functions. For real α > 0, letThis function satisfies the functional equation(This may be proved by using the formula (4) below, and then twice applying the identity (8).)
