Quadratic formHasse–Minkowski theorem

Permalink to relation

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.

Authored explanation

The Hasse–Minkowski theorem establishes a local–global principle for quadratic forms over number fields.

How to interpret this relation type

Record a genuine theorem implication that is not part of the target definition; these edges may point toward a weaker structure.

Quadratic formSmooth projective quadric

Permalink to relation

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.

Authored explanation

For a nondegenerate quadratic form of dimension at least three over a field of characteristic not two, the equation q=0q=0 defines a smooth projective quadric.

How to interpret this relation type

Apply a standard functorial or canonical construction whose output is not merely a reduct of the input and is not generally an equivalent presentation of the same object.
