In number theory, a branch of mathematics, Ramanujan's ternary quadratic form is the algebraic expression x 2 + y 2 + 10z 2 with integral values for x, y and z. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Srinivasa Ramanujan considered this expression in a footnote in a paper [ 3 ] published in 1916 and briefly discussed the representability of integers in this form.
An integral quadratic form has integer coefficients, such as x 2 + xy + y 2; equivalently, given a lattice Λ in a vector space V (over a field with characteristic 0, such as Q or R), a quadratic form Q is integral with respect to Λ if and only if it is integer-valued on Λ, meaning Q(x, y) ∈ Z if x, y ∈ Λ.

By definition, a quadric X of dimension n over a field k is the subspace of + defined by q = 0, where q is a nonzero homogeneous polynomial of degree 2 over k in variables , …, +. (A homogeneous polynomial is also called a form , and so q may be called a quadratic form .)
The catalecticant of a ternary quartic is the resultant of its 6 second partial derivatives. It vanishes when the ternary quartic can be written as a sum of five 4th powers of linear forms. See also
An integral quadratic form is a quadratic form on Z n, or equivalently a free Z-module of finite rank. Two such forms are in the same genus if they are equivalent over the local rings Z p for each prime p and also equivalent over R .
