Determine whether the following quadratic forms are isotropic over $mathbb{Q}$.

$begingroup$



  1. $q(x, y, z) = 5x^2-y^2-11z^2$

  2. $q(x, y, z) = 3x^2-y^2+22z^2$


So for part (1), I apply Hasse-Minkowski and check over the $mathbb{Q}_p$. It's trivial to see for $mathbb{R}$. We only need to check for $mathbb{Q}_{13}$ and $mathbb{Q}_5$ right?. Now mod 5, the equation becomes $-y^2-z^2 = 0 mod 5$ and thus there is a solution since -1 is square mod 5. Checking mod 11, this becomes $5x^2-y^2 = 0 mod 11$. Now enough to check if 5 is square mod 11. But it's clear that it is by Legendre. Thus there is a solution and the form isotropic over $mathbb{Q}$.



Part(2) is similar. We check mod 3, $-y^2+z^2 = 0 mod 3$ and clearly there is a solution. For mod 11, we have that $3x^2-y^2 = 0 mod 11$. Now 3 is a square mod 11 thus there is a solution. Thus it's isotropic over $mathbb{Q}$.



Note that for other $p$, the coefficients are units thus must be isotropic.
Am I right?

    if you are correct, there are triples of integer $x,y,z$ (not all zero) for each one, that cause each form to become zero. There is a theorem that says that these integers can be found fairly small, if there are any

$begingroup$

next day: those recipes below give all primitive. Two small solutions to $5x^2 = y^2 + 11 z^2$ are $(2,3,1)$ and $(3,1,2).$ Two small solutions to $y^2 = 3x^2 + 22 z^2$ are $(1,5,1)$ and $(3,7,1).$



We get infinitely many primitive solutions for the first one taking
$$ x = 5 u^2 + 6 uv + 4 v^2 ; ; , ; ; y = 9 u^2 + 2 uv -6 v^2 ; ; , ; ; z = 2 u^2 + 6 uv + 2 v^2 ; ; , ; ; $$
and the genuinely different (even considering absolute values)
$$ x = 6 u^2 + 2 uv + 2 v^2 ; ; , ; ; y = 13 u^2 + 8 uv -3 v^2 ; ; , ; ; z = u^2 -4 uv - v^2 ; ; . ; ; $$



=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=



Second one



$$ x = 3 u^2 + 8 uv -2 v^2 ; ; , ; ; y = 7 u^2 + 4 uv + 10 v^2 ; ; , ; ; z = u^2 - 2 uv - 2 v^2 ; ; , ; ; $$
and the different
$$ x = u^2 + 8 uv -6 v^2 ; ; , ; ; y = 5 u^2 - 4 uv + 14 v^2 ; ; , ; ; z = u^2 - 2 uv - 2 v^2 ; ; . ; ; $$



In both cases you may take absolute values of $x,y,z$ as there are no mixed terms.



=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=



The example I like to show is solving
$$ 2(x^2 + y^2 + z^2) - 113(yz + zx + xy)=0, $$ four "recipes,"
$$
left(
begin{array}{r}
x \
y \
z
end{array}
right) =
left(
begin{array}{r}
37 u^2 + 51 uv + 8 v^2 \
8 u^2 -35 uv -6 v^2 \
-6 u^2 + 23 uv + 37 v^2
end{array}
right)
$$



$$
left(
begin{array}{r}
x \
y \
z
end{array}
right) =
left(
begin{array}{r}
32 u^2 + 61 uv + 18 v^2 \
18 u^2 -25 uv -11 v^2 \
-11 u^2 + 3 uv + 32 v^2
end{array}
right)
$$



$$
left(
begin{array}{r}
x \
y \
z
end{array}
right) =
left(
begin{array}{r}
38 u^2 + 45 uv + 4 v^2 \
4 u^2 -37 uv -3 v^2 \
-3 u^2 + 31 uv + 38 v^2
end{array}
right)
$$



$$
left(
begin{array}{r}
x \
y \
z
end{array}
right) =
left(
begin{array}{r}
29 u^2 + 63 uv + 22 v^2 \
22 u^2 -19 uv -12 v^2 \
-12 u^2 -5 uv + 29 v^2
end{array}
right)
$$



For all four recipes,
$$ x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = 1469 left( u^2 + uv + v^2 right)^2 $$

        next day: those recipes below give all primitive. Two small solutions to $5x^2 = y^2 + 11 z^2$ are $(2,3,1)$ and $(3,1,2).$ Two small solutions to $y^2 = 3x^2 + 22 z^2$ are $(1,5,1)$ and $(3,7,1).$



        We get infinitely many primitive solutions for the first one taking
        $$ x = 5 u^2 + 6 uv + 4 v^2 ; ; , ; ; y = 9 u^2 + 2 uv -6 v^2 ; ; , ; ; z = 2 u^2 + 6 uv + 2 v^2 ; ; , ; ; $$
        and the genuinely different (even considering absolute values)
        $$ x = 6 u^2 + 2 uv + 2 v^2 ; ; , ; ; y = 13 u^2 + 8 uv -3 v^2 ; ; , ; ; z = u^2 -4 uv - v^2 ; ; . ; ; $$

        Second one



        $$ x = 3 u^2 + 8 uv -2 v^2 ; ; , ; ; y = 7 u^2 + 4 uv + 10 v^2 ; ; , ; ; z = u^2 - 2 uv - 2 v^2 ; ; , ; ; $$
        and the different
        $$ x = u^2 + 8 uv -6 v^2 ; ; , ; ; y = 5 u^2 - 4 uv + 14 v^2 ; ; , ; ; z = u^2 - 2 uv - 2 v^2 ; ; . ; ; $$



        In both cases you may take absolute values of $x,y,z$ as there are no mixed terms.

            How to change which sound is reproduced for terminal bell?

            Image
            3 Recently upgrade to 18.10 from 18.04, and using the terminal is becoming annoying: the new alert sound is a drip ( /usr/share/sounds/gnome/default/alerts/drip.ogg ), and the previous one is still located at ( /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg ). My issue is that at the gnome-terminal, when autocompleting or pressing left BOTH sounds are reproduced, at the same time. I want to just have ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg active, not both . At the moment I have been only able to reduce the volume of the alerts (but still both are played), or turn the alerts down (but I dislike both "solutions"). gnome-terminal 18.10 teminal-bell share | improve this question ...

            Can I use Tabulator js library in my java Spring + Thymeleaf project?

            Image
            0 I want to add Tabulator js to my java project. I added tabulator.min.js, tabulator.min.css to resources folder. After that added to my html page these dependencies as recommending in readme.md. <link rel="stylesheet" th:href="@{/css/tabulator.min.css}"> <script type="text/javascript" th:src="@{/js/tabulator.min.js}"></script> Now my tables view all elements, that I have in the html page, but not correct. In the documentation of Tabulator is example how to create header and table, var table = new Tabulator("#example-table", { columns:[ {title:"Name", field:"name", sorter:"string", width:200, editor:true}, {title:"Age", field:"age", sorter:"...

            Title Spacing in Bjornstrup Chapter, Removing Chapter Number From Contents

            Image
            up vote 5 down vote favorite 2 I would like to make it so that the vertical space below the title of each chapter is the same when using the Bjornstrup package (i.e. so that the descenders do not affect the spacing - as shown by the red arrow in the picture below). I think I'm fairly happy with the spacing around "A chapter", so I'd really like titles without descenders (e.g. "Contents") to have the same vertical spacing as "A chapter" below the title. I would also like to remove the large "0" in the contents title. Any help appreciated, as always. documentclass[11pt,a4paper]{book} % Packages[![enter image description here][1]][1] usepackage[left=3.5cm, right=3.5cm, top=4.3cm, bottom=4.25cm]{geometry} usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} usepackage{libertine} usepackage[libertine]{newtx...
