Abstract
For a discrete valuation ring with quotient field and residue field both of characteristic not 2, we study low-dimensional quadratic forms with Witt class in the -th power of the fundamental ideal of resp. and point out connections between forms over these fields. We analyse the minimal number of Pfister forms such that a given form is Witt equivalent to the sum of these and study forms congruent modulo a higher power of the fundamental ideal towards similarity.
