Title
Real fields, valuations, and quadratic forms
Author
Abstract
We study several field invariants arising in quadratic form theory. Some of the invariants considered are of particular interest in the study of real fields, including the length, the u-invariant, and the (reduced) stability index. In this context we give a systematic account of valuation theoretic arguments that lead to lower bounds for these invariants.
