Cyclotomic quadratic forms

Applications of quadratic D-forms to generalized quadratic forms

In this paper, we study generalized quadratic forms over a division algebra with involution of the first kind in characteristic two. For this, we associate to every generalized quadratic from a quadratic form on its underlying vector space. It is shown that this form determines the isotropy behavior and the isometry class of generalized quadratic forms.

Linear-quadratic Control and Quadratic Differential Forms

We consider the infinite time linear-quadratic control problem from a behavioral point of view. The performance functional is the integral of a quadratic differential form. A characterization of the stationary trajectories and of the local minima with respect to (left) compact support variations, as well as their relation to stability, are obtained. Finally, several theorems are derived that de...
