A307377 Array A(n, k) read by upwards antidiagonals giving the number of representative parallel primitive binary quadratic forms for discriminant Disc(n) = 4*D(n), with D(n) = A000037(n), and for representable integer |k| >= 1. 1

%N Array A(n, k) read by upwards antidiagonals giving the number of representative parallel primitive binary quadratic forms for discriminant Disc(n) = 4*D(n), with D(n) = A000037(n), and for representable integer |k| >= 1.

%C For the definition of representative parallel primitive forms (rpapfs) for discriminant Disc > 0 (the indefinite case) and representation of nonzero integers k see the Scholz-Schoeneberg reference, p. 105, or the Buell reference p. 49 (without use of the name parallel). For the procedure to find the primitive representative parallel forms (rpapfs) for Disc(n) = 4*D(n) = 4*A000037(n) and nonzero integer k see the W. Lang link given in A324251, section 3.

%C Note that the number of rpapfs of a discriminant Disc > 0 for k >= 1 is identical with the one for negative k. These forms differ in the signs of the a and c entries of these forms but not the b >= 0 entry (called an outer sign flip). See some examples below, and the program in the mentioned W. Lang link, section 3.

%C For the forms counted in the array A(n, k) see Table 3 of the W. Lang link given in A324251, for n = 1..30 and k = 1..10.

%C Compare the present array with the ones given in A324252 and A307303 for the number of rpapfs for discriminant 4*D(n) and representable positive and negative k, respectively, that are equivalent (under SL(2, Z)) to the reduced principal form F_p = [1, 2*s(n), -(D(n) - s(n)^2)] with s(n) = A000194(n), of the unreduced Pell form F(n) = [1, 0, -D(n)].

%C The rpapfs not counted in A324252 and A307303 are equivalent to forms of non-principal cycles for discriminant 4*D(n).

%C The total number of cycles (the class number h(n)) for discriminant 4*D(n) is given in A307359(n).

%C The array for the length of the periods of these cycles is given in A307378.

%C One half of the sum of the length of the periods is given in A307236.

%e For this triangle more of the columns of the array have been used than those that are shown.

%e -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

%e A(2, 3) = 1 because the representative parallel primitive form (rpapf) for discriminant 4*D(2) = 12 and k = +3 is [3, 0, -1], and the one for k= -3 is [-3, 0, 1] (sign flip in both, the a and c entries, but leaving the b entry).

%e A(3, 4) = 2 because the two rpapfs for discriminant 4*D(3) = 20 and k = +4 are [4, 2, -1] and [4, 6, 1], and the two ones for k = -4 are [-4, 2, 1], [-4, 6, -1].
