Witt Kernels of Quadratic Forms for Multiquadratic Extensions in Characteristic 2
Let F be a field of characteristic 2 and let K/F be a purely inseparable extension of exponent 1. We show that the extension is excellent for quadratic forms. Using the excellence we recover and extend results by Aravire and Laghribi who computed generators for the kernel Wq(K/F ) of the natural restriction map Wq(F ) → Wq(K) between the Witt groups of quadratic forms of F and K, respectively, ...
متن کاملApplications 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.
متن کاملDifferential Forms and Bilinear Forms under Field Extensions
Let F be a field of characteristic p > 0. Let Ω(F ) be the F vector space of n-differentials of F over F . Let K = F (g) be the function field of an irreducible polynomial g in m > 1 variables over F . We derive an explicit description of the kernel of the restriction map Ω(F ) → Ω(K). As an application in the case p = 2, we determine the kernel of the restriction map when passing from the Witt...
متن کاملIsotropy of Products of Quadratic Forms over Field Extensions
The isotropy of products of Pfister forms is studied. In particular, an improved lower bound on the value of their first Witt index is obtained. This result and certain of its corollaries are applied to the study of the weak isotropy index (or equivalently, the sublevel) of arbitrary quadratic forms. The relationship between this invariant and the level of the form is investigated. The problem ...
متن کاملLocal and global fundamental classes for multiquadratic extensions
Using a reformulation of an approach of Serre, we provide a description of the fundamental class of an arbitrary multiquadratic extension of local fields. For a multiquadratic extension of number fields L/K such that 2 splits completely in L, we exhibit the global fundamental class. We obtain descriptions of the local and global reciprocity maps as consequences. 2010 Mathematics Subject Classif...
