The classical Hasse-Minkowski theorem states that if two quadratic forms become isomorphic over all the completions of k, then they are isomorphic over k as well. It is natural to ask whether this is also true for G-quadratic forms, where G is a finite group. In the case of number fields the Hasse principle for G-quadratic forms does not hold in general, as shown by Jorge Morales. The aim of this paper is to study this question when k is a global field of positive characteristic. We give a sufficient criterion for the Hasse principle to hold, and also counter examples : note that these are of different nature than those for number fields.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2013-05-14T14:12:09.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "g-quadratic forms", "hasse principle", "number fields", "global field", "classical hasse-minkowski theorem states" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1305.3161B" } } }
