In this talk we show that any integral, pos-def., primitive quadratic form in n variables represents infinitely many prime numbers and infinitely many primitive, non-equivalent quadratic forms in m variables with 2 ≤ m ≤ n − 1. This result for n = 2 and prime numbers was proved by H. Weber in 1882. The corresponding statement for n > 2 and prime numbers can be deduced from sophisticated local to global theorems. In this talk we present a simpler inductive argument which yields the most general statement mentioned above, and only requires Weber’s result and basic linear algebra.
