A closer look at Witt rings for forms of higher degree (2403.15287v2)
Published 22 Mar 2024 in math.RA
Abstract: Witt rings for nondegenerate forms $\varphi$ of degree $d$ over a field of characteristic 0 or greater than $d$ were defined by Harrison and Pareigis. We revisit and discuss their definition as well as some special cases, classify the $H$-forms employed in their definition, and define Witt rings of diagonal forms of degree $d$. We also define two new Witt rings for nondegenerate forms $\varphi$ of degree $d$.
