Abstract Quadratic Forms

Canadian Journal of Mathematics, 1969
We shall be studying the following structure, which we shall call a V-form (“Vector-valued form”). Let G and W be additive abelian groups with every element of order 2 (i.e. vector spaces over the field GF(2) of two elements). Let there be given a symmetric bilinear map from G × G to W; we shall write it simply as a product ab. We define an equivalence

Indefinite Quadratic Forms

Proceedings of the London Mathematical Society, 1987
Let Q be a quadratic form, \(Q=L^ 2_ 1+... +L^ 2_ r-... -L^ 2_ n\) where \(L_ 1,...,L_ n\) are real linearly independent quadratic forms. If \(n=18\), \(r=9\); \(n=19\), \(8\leq r\leq 11\); or \(n=20\), \(7\leq r\leq 13\), then we can solve \(| Q(x)| 0\). This extends work of Davenport, Birch and Ridout.

On quadratic differential forms

Proceedings of 1994 33rd IEEE Conference on Decision and Control, 1998
The authors develop a theory for linear time-invariant differential systems and quadratic functionals. It is shown that for systems described by one-variable polynomial matrices, the appropriate tool to express quadratic functionals of the system variables are two-variable polynomial matrices. The authors present a description of the interaction of one-
