Does this quadratic system admit an integral or a rational solution?
Let $a,b$ be coprime and say $0<a<b<2a$.
Consider the quadratic system:
$$\alpha\delta-\beta\gamma=1$$
$$(\alpha^2-(\alpha\delta+\beta\gamma))a^2b+\beta^2b^3+(2\alpha\beta-\beta\delta)ab^2-\...

Maximum dimension of a simultaneous anisotropic subspace of quadratic forms over $ \mathbb{Q} $
Let $(V,q )$ be a quadratic space over $ \mathbb{Q} $. A subspace $ U $ is called totally isotropic if $ q(x) = 0 $ for all $ x \in U $ and a subspace $ U $ is called an anisotropic subspace if $ ...
