Binary Quadratics Unveiled: From Diophantus to Gauss

A friendly dive into binary quadratic forms: what they are, how we decide when two forms are equivalent, and how reduction and discriminants reveal a finite map of an infinite landscape. Join the journey from ancient sums of squares and Pell’s equation through Lagrange’s classification and Gauss’s genus theory, and see how modern computation pushes these ideas into new frontiers.
