Abstract
Let (aij) = A be a positive definite n × n symmetric matrix with real entries. To it corresponds a positive definite quadratic form ƒ on Rn: ƒ(x) = txAx = ∑ aijXiXj for x any column vector in Rn. The set of values ƒ(y) for y in Zn — {0} has a minimum m (A) > 0 and the number of “minimal vectors“ y1, … , yr in Zn for which ƒ(yi) = m (A) is finite. By definition, ƒ and A are called eutactic if and only if there are positive numbers s1 ,… , sr such that
