In this article, we provide the complete answer to a question raised by Kitaoka in his book. (1999, ``Arithmetic of Quadratic Forms,'' Cambridge Univ. Press, Cambridge, UK). More precisely, we prove that A 4 = ( 4) represents all but one and D 4 20[2 1 2 ] represents all but three binary positive ev

Necessary and sufficient local conditions are given for the primitive representation of a lattice by a unimodular lattice. Global results are then obtained for indefinite lattices by using strong approximation. 1993 Academic Press. Inc.
Let M be a positive definite quadratic Z-lattice of rank n+3. If N is a quadratic Z-lattice of rank n which is primitively represented by the genus of M and if all the successive minima of N increase sufficiently quickly, then there exists a global primitive representation of N by M with approximati
Let f be an indefinite ternary integral quadratic form and let q be a nonzero integer such that &q det( f ) is not a square. Let N(T, f, q) denote the number of integral solutions of the equation f (x)=q where x lies in the ball of radius T centered at the origin. We are interested in the asymptotic
