The Markoff spectrum of binary indefinite quadratic forms can be studied in terms of heights of geodesics on low-index covers of the modular surface. The lowest geodesics on [Formula: see text] are the simple closed geodesics; these are indexed up to isometry by Markoff triples of positive integers (x, y, z) with x2 + y2 + z2 = 3xyz, and have heights [Formula: see text]. Geodesics considered by Crisp and Moran have heights [Formula: see text]; they conjectured that these heights, which lie in the "mysterious region" between 3 and the Hall ray, are isolated in the Markoff Spectrum. In our previous work, we classified the low height-achieving non-simple geodesics of [Formula: see text] into seven types according to the topology of highest arcs. Here, we obtain explicit formulas for the heights of geodesics of the first three types; the conjecture holds for approximation by closed geodesics of any of these types. Explicit examples show that each of the remaining types is realized.

Following a fundamental theorem of Hecke, some bases of and are determined, and explicit formulas are obtained for the number of representations of positive integers by all possible direct sums (111 different combinations) of seven quadratic forms from the class group of equivalence classes of quadratic forms with discriminant −71 whose representatives are .

In this paper, using the (p, k)-parametrization of theta functions given by Alaca, Alaca and Williams, we establish some theta function identities. Explicit formulas are obtained for the number of representations of a positive integer n by the quadratic forms [Formula: see text] with a ≠ 0, a + b + c = 4 and [Formula: see text] with k + l = 2 and r + s + t = 2 by employing these identities.

Abstract Entire modular forms of weights and for the congruence group Γ0(4N) are constructed, which will be useful for revealing the arithmetical sense of additional terms in formulas for the number of representations of positive integers by quadratic forms in 7 and 9 variables.

AbstractLet denote the Dedekind eta function. We use a recent productto- sum formula in conjunction with conditions for the non-representability of integers by certain ternary quadratic forms to give explicitly ten eta quotientssuch that the Fourier coefficients c(n) vanish for all positive integers n in each of infinitely many non-overlapping arithmetic progressions. For example, we show that if we have c(n) = 0 for all n in each of the arithmetic progressions

AbstractGenerating functions are used to derive formulas for the number of representations of a positive integer by each of the quadratic forms x12+x22+x32+2x42, x12+2x22+2x32+2x42, x12+x22+2x32+4x42 and x12+2x22+4x32+4x42. The formulas show that the number of representations by each form is always positive. Some of the analogous results involving sums of triangular numbers are also given.

For every positive integer [Formula: see text], it is shown that there exists a positive definite diagonal quaternary integral quadratic form that represents all positive integers except for precisely those which lie in [Formula: see text] arithmetic progressions. For [Formula: see text], all forms with this property are determined.

For a positive definite ternary integral quadratic form [Formula: see text], let [Formula: see text] be the number of representations of an integer [Formula: see text] by [Formula: see text]. A ternary quadratic form [Formula: see text] is said to be a generalized Bell ternary quadratic form if [Formula: see text] is isometric to [Formula: see text] for some nonnegative integers [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we give a closed formula for [Formula: see text] for a generalized Bell ternary quadratic form [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] and class number greater than [Formula: see text] by using the Minkowski–Siegel formula and bases for spaces of cusp forms of weight [Formula: see text] and level [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] consisting of eta-quotients.
