A finiteness theorem for representability of quadratic forms by forms
In this article, Conway-Schneeberger’s and Bhargava’s results on representability of positive integers by positive definite integral quadratric forms are fully generalized as follows: for any infinite set S of positive definite integral quadratic forms of bounded rank, there is a finite subset S0 of S such that any positive definite integral quadratic form that represents every element of S0 represents all elements of S.
