Abstract

Counting integral binary quadratic forms with certain restrictions is a classical problem. In this paper, we count binary quadratic forms of fixed discriminant given restrictions on the size of their coefficients. We accomplish this by investigating the analytic properties of a certain double Dirichlet series, which is a shifted convolution sum of certain classical automorphic forms.
