Abstract
Let be a field of characteristic , be an -fold bilinear Pfister form over and an arbitrary quadratic form over . In this note, we investigate Witt index, defect, total isotropy index and higher isotropy indices of and and prove relations among the indices of these two forms over certain field extensions.
