A form is positive definite when and ; equivalence is change by , and reduced means with the standard boundary sign convention. Translating reduces , and swapping variables reduces ; discriminant bounds force termination. For a reduced form, and . Discriminant has one primitive reduced class, represented by . Therefore an odd prime is represented exactly when it splits in , namely , with the ramified exception . Thus or .
For the standard symplectic form, ; a transformation is canonical when it preserves the symplectic form, equivalently Poisson brackets. The Jacobi identity gives with the stated convention. For , differentiate in ; Jacobi makes the derivative the Lie transport of the bracket, preserving the canonical constant brackets at . Hence every map in the one-parameter flow is canonical.
A point is regular singular when and are analytic there. The Papperitz symbol records the three singular points and their two local exponents. Here the finite points are and the third is . The indicial equations give exponents at and at . Comparing with the hypergeometric equation gives , , , hence and exponents at infinity. Thus
