Binary quadratic form

In mathematics, a binary quadratic form is a quadratic homogeneous polynomial in two variables where a, b, c are the coefficients. When the coefficients can be arbitrary complex numbers, most results are not specific to the case of two variables, so they are described in quadratic form. A quadratic form with integer coefficients is called an integral binary quadratic form, often abbreviated to binary quadratic form. Another instance of quadratic forms is Pell's equation . The classical theta function of 2 variables is , if is a positive definite quadratic form then is a theta function.
