Values of special indefinite quadratic forms

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: For special d-dimensional hyperbolic shells E with dgeq5 we show that the number of lattice points in E intersected with a d-dimensional cube Cr of edge length r, can be approximated by the volume of EcapCr, as r tends to infinity, up to an error of order mathcalO(rd−2). We generalize results and techniques, used by F. G"otze (2004), to a large class of {em indefinite} quadratic forms and we provide explicit bounds for the errors in terms of certain Minkowski minima related to these quadratic forms. Furthermore, we obtain, as in the positive definite case, a result for multivariate diophantine approximation and for the maximal gap between values of such indefinite forms.
