What does it mean for a positive definite binary quadratic form to be reduced?
Prove that every positive definite binary quadratic form is equivalent to a reduced form, and that there are only finitely many reduced forms with given discriminant.
State a criterion for a positive integer to be represented by a positive definite binary quadratic form with discriminant , and hence determine which primes are represented by .
