Weird analogy between quadratic forms and formal systems
A fundamental connection between provability and consistency for formal systems is that, if $Q$ is a formal system and $A$ is a sentence in the language of $S$, then
$Q$ proves $A$ if and only if …

Fields in which $ -1 $ can't be written as sum of two square elements
In the notation of Lam's Quadratic forms over fields, the Stufe (a German word) or level (its English translation) $s(F)$ of a field is the minimal $n$ such that $-1$ is the sum of $n$ squares.
