β¦ Synopsis
We investigate theta functions attached to quadratic forms over a number field K. We establish a functional equation by regarding the theta functions as specializations of symplectic theta functions. By applying a differential operator to the functional equation, we show how theta functions with harmonic coefficients over K behave under modular transformations. # 2002 Elsevier Science (USA)

Let K be the function field over a finite field of odd order, and let H be a definite quaternion algebra over K. If L is an order of level M in H, we define theta series for each ideal I of L using the reduced norm on H. Using harmonic analysis on the completed algebra H . and the arithmetic of quat
The analogues of the classical Kronecker and Hurwitz class number relations for function fields of any positive characteristic are obtained by a method parallel to the classical proof. In the case of even characteristic, purely inseparable orders also have to be taken into account. A subtle point is
We study the level of nonformally real function fields of surfaces over number fields and show that it is at most 4 for a large class of surfaces.  2002 Elsevier Science (USA) The level of a field F is the least integer n such that -1 is expressible as a sum of n squares in F. If -1 is not a sum o
