Using the circle method, we show that for a fixed positive definite integral quadratic form A, the expected asymptotic formula for the number of representations of a positive definite integral quadratic form B by A holds true, providing that the dimension of A is large enough in terms of the dimension of B and the maximum ratio of the successive minima of B, and providing that B is sufficiently large in terms of A.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
