Quartic Forms in Many Variables

Jan H. Dumke

Abstract: We show that a quartic p-adic form with at least 3192 variables possesses a non-trivial zero. We also prove new results on systems of cubic, quadratic and linear forms. As an example, we show that for a system comprising two cubic forms 132 variables are sufficient.

“…The second bound follows from a recent result by Dumke [7] which establishes γ * 3 (2) ≤ 131. Previously, the best known bound was a result by Dietmann and Wooley [6], who by a different approach showed that any two cubic forms, not necessarily nonsingular, have a simultaneous zero if the number of variables is at least 827.…”
