0. Introduction. Simplicial quadratic forms (cf. Definition 1.4), and various equivalent forms, have occasionally been studied in geometry [8], and in number theory [9], [10], in connection with the extremal properties of integral quadratic forms. Our investigations, which employ simple techniques from graph theory and geometry, partly continue both those of Coxeter [5], who introduced the graphs described in Section 1, and Vinberg [20], [21], who described an algorithm for determining a fundamental region for a discrete group acting on spherical, Euclidean, or hyperbolic space. After a preliminary discussion of reflexible forms and the Caley-Klein model for (n − 1)-space (1.2), we define a simplicial form and its graph. Having enumerated them completely, we turn in Section 2 to their equivalence, which is related to a geometric dissection. The unit group for each simplicial form can then be determined from Theorem 3.7.I wish to thank Professor H. S. M. Coxeter for many helpful ideas, and Professor G. Maxwell and the referee for suggesting numerous improvements.
