Types of Linkage of Quadratic Pfister Forms

open access: yes, 2018
Given a field $F$ of positive characteristic $p$, $\theta \in H_p^{n-1}(F)$ and $\beta,\gamma \in F^\times$, we prove that if the symbols $\theta \wedge \frac{d \beta}{\beta}$ and $\theta \wedge \frac{d \gamma}{\gamma}$ in $H_p^n(F)$ share the same ...

Weakly Hyperbolic Involutions

open access: yes, 2018
Pfister's Local-Global Principle states that a quadratic form over a (formally) real field is weakly hyperbolic (i.e. represents a torsion element in the Witt ring) if and only if its total signature is zero.

The descent of biquaternion algebras in characteristic two

open access: yes, 2019
In this paper we associate an invariant to a biquaternion algebra $B$ over a field $K$ with a subfield $F$ such that $K/F$ is a quadratic separable extension and $\operatorname{char}(F)=2$. We show that this invariant is trivial exactly when $B \cong B_0

Trace forms of Galois extensions in the presence of a fourth root of unity

open access: yes, 2003
We study quadratic forms that can occur as trace forms of Galois field extensions L/K, under the assumption that K contains a primitive 4th root of unity. M. Epkenhans conjectured that any such form is a scaled Pfister form.

Symplectic Involutions, quadratic pairs and function fields of conics

open access: yes, 2016
In this paper we study symplectic involutions and quadratic pairs that become hyperbolic over the function field of a conic. In particular, we classify them in degree 4 and deduce results on 5 dimensional minimal quadratic forms, thus extending to ...

Total linkage of quaternion algebras and Pfister forms in characteristic two

open access: yes, 2016
We study the subfields of quaternion algebras that are quadratic extensions of their center in characteristic 2. We provide examples of the following: two non-isomorphic quaternion algebras that share all their quadratic subfields, two quaternion ...

Geometric description of the connecting homomorphism for Witt groups

open access: yes, 2008
We give a geometric setup in which the connecting homomorphism in the localization long exact sequence for Witt groups decomposes as the pull-back to the exceptional fiber of a suitable blow-up followed by a push-forward.Comment: 19 pages, minor details ...
