摘要
A basic result of Milnor and Scharlau determines the Witt ring of rational function fields Wk(x) whenever char k not equal 2. An analogous result is obtained here for the Witt group of quadratic forms W-q f(x), where f is a field of characteristic 2. This generalizes earlier work by the authors where 9 was assumed to be perfect.
