In this paper, we study estimates for quadratic forms of the type xTA−mx, m∈N, for symmetric matrices. We derive a general approach for estimating this type of quadratic form and we present some upper bounds for the corresponding absolute error. Specifically, we consider three different approaches for estimating the quadratic form xTA−mx. The first approach is based on a projection method, the second is a minimization procedure, and the last approach is heuristic. Numerical examples showing the effectiveness of the estimates are presented. Furthermore, we compare the behavior of the proposed estimates with other methods that are derived in the literature.

Projective spaces over local ring R = 2R with principal maximal ideal J; 1+J ⊆ R*2 have been investigated. Quadratic forms and corresponding symmetric matrices A and B are projectively congruent if kA = UBU T for a matrix U ∈ GL(n;R) and for some k ∈ R * : In the case of k = 1 quadratic forms (corresponding symmetric matrices) are called congruent. The problem of enumerating congruent and projective congruent quadratic forms is based on the identification of the (unique) normal form of the corresponding symmetric matrices and is related to the theory of quadratic form schemes. Over the local ring R on conditions R * =R *2 ={1;-1; p;-p} and D(1; 1)=D(1; p)={1; p}; D(1;-1)=D(1;-p)={1;-1; p;-p} (unique) normal form of congruent symmetric matrices over ring R is detected. Quantities of congruent and projective congruent symmetric matrix classes is found when maximal ideal is nilpotent.

Finiteness Result

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].

AbstractThis work defines a new algebraic structure, to be called an alternative Clifford algebra associated to a given quadratic form. I explored its representations, particularly concentrating on connections to the well-understood octonion algebras. I finished by suggesting directions for future research.

Best Estimates

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.

Form Approach

We consider homogeneous linear recurring sequences over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$, based on an irreducible characteristic polynomial of degree $n$ and order $m$. Let $t=(q^{n}-1)/ m$. We use quadratic forms over finite fields to give the exact number of occurrences of zeros of the sequence within its least period when $t$ has q-adic weight 2. Consequently we prove that the cardinality of the set of zeros for sequences from this category is equal to two.

Analytical Foundation

Inventory models must consider the probability of sub-optimal manufacturing and careless shipping to prevent the delivery of defective products to retailers. Retailers seeking to preserve a reputation of quality must also perform inspections of all items prior to sale. Inventory models that include sub-lot sampling inspections provide reasonable conditions by which to establish a lower bound and a pair of upper bounds in terms of order quantity. This should make it possible to determine the conditions of an optimal solution, which includes a unique interior solution to the problem of an order quantity satisfying the first partial derivative. The approach proposed in this paper can be used to solve the boundary. These study findings provide the analytical foundation for an inventory model that accounts for defective items and sub-lot sampling inspections. The numerical examples presented in a previous paper are used to demonstrate the derivation of an optimal solution. A counter-example is constructed to illustrate how existing iterative methods do not necessarily converge to the optimal solution.

For every positive integer [Formula: see text], it is shown that there exists a positive definite diagonal quaternary integral quadratic form that represents all positive integers except for precisely those which lie in [Formula: see text] arithmetic progressions. For [Formula: see text], all forms with this property are determined.

First Case

The theorem that every properly primitive binary quadratic form is capable of representing infinitely many prime numbers was first proved completely by H. Weber (5). The purpose of this paper is to give an elementary proof of the case where the form is ax2 + 2bxy + cy2, with a > 0, (a, 2b, c) = 1, and D = b2 — ac not a square. The cases where the form is ax2 + bxy + cy2 with b odd, and the case where the form is ax2+ 2bxy + cy2 with D a square, can be settled very simply once the first case is taken care of, and this is done in a page and a half in the Weber paper.
