On the classification of quadratic forms over an integral domain of a global function field

Abstract: Abstract. Let C be a smooth projective curve defined over the finite field Fq (q is odd) and let K = Fq(C) be its function field. Any finite set S of closed points of C gives rise to an integral domain OS := Fq[C − S] in K. We show that given an OS-regular quadratic space (V, q) of rank n ≥ 3, the set of genera in the proper classification of quadratic OS-spaces isomorphic to (V, q) in the flat orétale topology, is in 1 : 1 correspondence with 2Br(OS ), thus there are 2 |S|−1 such. If (V, q) is isotropic, then… Show more

“…In order to provide a counter-example, we refer in Section 4 more concretely to the case in which (O Γ V ) 0 is the special orthogonal group of another isotropic form (V ′ , q ′ ). Based on a result established in [Bit1] and [Bit2], stating that if q is isotropic of rank ≥ 3, then c(q) ∼ = Pic (O S )/2, we show that if q ′ is isotropic of rank 2 then it may possess twisted forms which are only stably isomorphic, namely, that become isomorphic over (any) regular non-trivial extension of V ′ . So our suggested obstruction to Question 1.2 arises from the failure of the Witt cancellation theorem over O S .…”

“…We would like to refer to the case in which (O Γ V ) 0 is the special orthogonal group of another isotropic Γ-form. It is shown in [Bit1,Proposition 4.4] for |S| = 1 and more generally in [Bit2,Theorem 4.6] for any finite S, that if rank(V ) ≥ 3 (q is isotropic), then c(q) ∼ = Pic (O S )/2. For rank(V ) = 2, however, this genus might be larger.…”
