✦ Synopsis

The number of equivalence classes of pairs of quadratic forms in dimension n over F O (q odd) is shown to equal the coefficient of tL in the expansion of L 5

This is reminiscent of a corresponding formula of Gow and Waterhouse for single asymmetric bilinear forms.

Let N be the number of affine zeros of a pair of quadratic forms in n#1 variables defined over a finite field F O . We give upper and lower bounds for N and show that these bounds are optimal. One result states that if n#1510 and every quadratic form in the pencil has order at least three, then "N!q
