Spinor-genus correspondence conjecture for ternary quadratic-form genera
Spinor-genus correspondence conjecture for ternary quadratic-form genera
Let and be genera of positive ternary forms whose discriminant ratio is an integral squarefree integer, and suppose they admit a genus-correspondence. A genus-correspondence matches forms in the two genera according to mutual representation of the discriminant-ratio multiple and respects spinor genus when two forms in lie in the same spinor genus if and only if their corresponding forms in do.
Spinor-genus correspondence conjecture. Suppose that and each have exactly two spinor genera. Then has spinor exceptional integers if and only if has spinor exceptional integers, and has splitting integers if and only if has splitting integers. Moreover, the genus-correspondence respects spinor genus. When spinor exceptions exist, the regular spinor genera correspond; when splitting integers exist, the spinor genera with larger weighted representation measures for the smallest splitting integers correspond.
The conjecture is supported by extensive numerical evidence and describes how genus-correspondences preserve the spinor-genus structure. It also accounts for the correspondence of regular spinor genera and the relative representation measures associated with splitting integers.
