Oct 9, 2013 at 18:29 comment added Turbo Yes that is what I am talking about the sphere. It is set of equal distant(Euclidean) points from the center.

Oct 9, 2013 at 18:28 comment added Turbo @FelipeVoloch Now I see what Margaux is talking about. Apologize for the poor description. Will change it.
Oct 9, 2013 at 18:23 comment added Felipe Voloch What's a sphere? Is it the set of points equidistant from the center? Then what is the metric? Or is it something else? What happens if your field $\mathbb{F}$ is the rationals and the zero sets are empty?
Oct 9, 2013 at 18:00 comment added Turbo removed the confusing abs value notation.

Oct 9, 2013 at 17:46 comment added Turbo $|x|_i$ sum of ith powers of coordinates.
Oct 9, 2013 at 17:45 comment added Turbo yes $|x|_i$ could be negative or imaginary; all that matters is there should be a point on the other quad form such that the sum of coordnates become somethinmg specific.

Oct 9, 2013 at 17:42 comment added Marguax Since you have completely eliminated $t$, now it is much clearer. But the definitions of $|x|_i$ aren't non-negative when $\mathbb{F}=\mathbb{C}$, and even $|x|_1$ isn't when $\mathbb{F}=\mathbb{R}$ since you do not speak of absolute values there, so please be much clearer about exactly what is $\mathbb{F}$ (no notion of absolute value for a general char. 0 field, by the way). I also recommend again that you give some motivation for this question, as it looks quite artificial otherwise.
Oct 9, 2013 at 17:30 comment added Turbo @Marguax Sorry I am not a mathematician. If you could tell me what is imprecise, I can fix it.

Oct 9, 2013 at 17:19 comment added Turbo I realized that there is a parametrization of $t$ with $s'$ which makes things more complicated. This base case now itself is interesting to me.

Oct 9, 2013 at 17:07 comment added Turbo $\Bbb F$ is just a char $0$ ground field. Say $\Bbb C$ or $\Bbb R$. $\hat{s}$ is allowed to vary. $t$ is fixed to be be an integer less than $s+\hat{s}$.
Oct 9, 2013 at 16:59 comment added Marguax Some motivation and clearer notation (e.g., what is $\mathbb{F}$??) would improve this a lot. The specification of what is allowed to vary (e.g., $t$?) needs to be clarified a lot too. Try to present this question to someone in person to find out how imprecise its formulation is.
