u-Invariants of p-adic function fields
In his Paper "Fields of u-invariant 9" Oleg Izhboldin points out that for a algebraic closed, finitely generated field $k$ we have $u(k)= 2^{cd(k)}$. In particular we have
$u(\mathbb{C}((t_1),..(t_n …

Cohomological dimension of transcendental p-adic extensions
Let $q$ denote a quadratic form over a field $k$.
The u-invariant of a field $u(k)$ is defined by $u(k):=\{ max (\mathrm{rank}(q)) $ | $ q $ is anisotropic over $k\}$.
Let $k = \mathbb{Q}_p$ for any …

Rost Correspondence and minimal Pfister-Neighbors
In http://www.math.uiuc.edu/K-theory/0357/ Karpenko utters the following:
Conjecture 1.6. If an anisotropic quadric $X = Q$ possesses a Rost correspondence,
then the quadratic form (defining $X$ …

Dimension of binary motives of a quadric
Let $Q$ be a anisotropic quadric of dimension $d$ over $k$.
We work in the category of effective Chow-Motives over $k$.
Let $T$ be the Tate-Motive.
For a motive $M$ we write $M(l)$ for its $l$-th Tate …

The splitting pattern of the Killing form of an algebraic group and the Tits index
Let us assume that $G$ is an anisotropic semisimple, connected algebraic group over a field $k$ of characteristic zero.
Let $K_G$ denote the class of its Killing form in the Witt ring of $k$.
Let $X$ …

Constructing groups of Type E^{66}_{7,1} having non trivial Tits algebra
This can be considered as a continuation of my last useful question:
Constructing groups of Type E7 with certain Tits Index
It is known that a quadratic form $q$ of dimension $12$, having splitting …

Rank four quadratic Form with non trivial discriminant in I(k)
Im sure this is a beginners question.
Let $k$ be a field and $I(k)$ the fundamental ideal in the Witt-ring W(k).
The Arason-Pfister-Hauptsatz states:
"If $\varphi$ is any anisotropic class in $I^n …

Norm variety for n=5, p=2 not isomorphic to a quadric
In the paper "Motivic construction of cohomological invariants", the author displays a list of known norm varieties for several $n,p$ on page $11$. For $p=2, n=5$ it says that a norm variety is given …

Quadrics contained in the (complex) Cayley plane
In the paper
Ilev, Manivel - The Chow ring of the Cayley plane
we can learn, that $CH^8(X)$, with $X := E_6/P_1$, denoting the Cayley plane, has three generators with one of them being the class of …

Constructing groups of Type E7 with certain Tits Index
In a new survey on $E_8$, namely
Skip Garibaldi - E8 the most exceptional group
, the author gives an example (Example 8.4., page 15) on how to construct a group of type E8 with a prescribed Tits-I …
