Grothendieck-Witt groups of quadrics and sums-of-squares formulas
This thesis studies Grothendieck-Witt spectra of quadric hypersurfaces. In particular, we compute Witt groups of quadrics. Besides, by calculating Grothendieck-Witt groups of a deleted quadric over an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from 2, we improve Dugger and Isaksen’s cond...
