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. |
