摘要
The weak isotropy index (or equivalently, sublevel) of arbitrary quadratic forms is studied. Its relationship to the level of a form is investigated. The problem of determining the set of values of the weak isotropy index of a form as it ranges over field extensions is addressed, with both admissible and inadmissible numbers being determined. An analogous investigation with respect to the level of a form is also undertaken. A treatment of forms for which the above invariants coincide concludes this article, with some recently-raised questions being resolved.
