My Intel ISEF project back in 2005 was in
quadratic form representation theory — and a world expert in the field was on one of the judging panels.
Before judging started in earnest, he dropped by just to tell me how excited he was that I was studying
quadratic forms.
Gauss's law says that you can compose two
quadratic forms, which you can think of as a square of numbers, to get a third square.
I was just visualising putting numbers on each of the corners, and I saw these binary
quadratic forms coming out, three of them.
Not exact matches
Gauss's book includes a method for combining (or «composing») two
quadratic polynomials in two variables, each of the
form ax2 + bxy + cy2 with integer coefficients a, b, and c, to obtain a third
quadratic polynomial.

In the Yucatan Mirror Displacements, which he created in 1969 during a journey through Mexico with his wife, Nancy Holt, and the art dealer Virginia Dwan, he placed groups of
quadratic mirrors into sites
formed by nature but in a state of degradation, documented them in photos, removed them again and entered the sites on a map.
But at the very moment when one considers joined piecewise linear approximations [fig 4], without giving the reasons why the system would change its characteristics at that very time, perhaps it is more sensible to look for mechanisms (or effects, if we are unsure of the mechanisms) that describe the changing rate of change (leading to
quadratic description) or perhaps even other functional
forms: periodic, logistic, cubic.
Since angular momentum is linear in angular velocity while rotational energy is
quadratic, such an exchange will indeed involve converting an excess of KE to some other
form, though considerably less than 2e22 J. Redo your math and you'll see just how much less.
The amusing thing here is that the Eulerian model did better with a simpler
