We prove that every sufficiently large odd integer is a sum of two positive squares and a prime. Let R(n) be the number of representations n = x^2 + y^2 + p with x, y >= 1 and p prime. We show that R(n) > 0 for all odd n >= n0 and obtain…

In this paper we confirm a conjecture of Sun which states that each positive integer is a sum of a square, an odd square and a triangular number. Given any positive integer m, we show that p=2m+1 is a prime congruent to 3 modulo 4 if and…

We prove a reflection theorem, conjectured by Nakagawa and Ohno, for the number of quartic rings, or pairs of ternary quadratic forms, with a given cubic resolvent. Over $\mathbb{Z}$, our results are unconditional; we also allow the base to…

Well-known results of Lagrange and Jacobi prove that the every $m \in \mathbb N$ can be expressed as a sum of four integer squares, and the number $r(m)$ of such representations can be given by an explicit formula in $m$. In this paper, we…

Let Q be a non-singular diagonal quadratic form in at least four variables. We provide upper bounds for the number of integer solutions to the equation Q=0, which lie in a box with sides of length 2B, as B tends to infinity. The estimates…

Let $Q(x_1, \cdots,x_n)$ be a real indefinite quadratic form of the type $(r,s)$, $n=r+s$, signature $\sigma=r-s$ and determinant $D\neq 0$. Let $\Gamma_{r,n-r}$ denote the infimum of all numbers $\Gamma$ such that for any real numbers…

Lagrange's Four Squares Theorem states that any positive integer can be expressed as the sum of four integer squares. We investigate the analogous question over Quaternion rings, focusing on squares of elements of Quaternion rings with…

A positive definite quadratic form is called perfect, if it is uniquely determined by its arithmetical minimum and the integral vectors attaining it. In this self-contained survey we explain how to enumerate perfect forms in $d$ variables…
