= Reduced positive definite binary quadratic forms of discriminant minus thirty-five
{title2=$D=-35$}

The two reduced positive definite integral forms of discriminant $-35$ are
$$
[1,1,9]\quad\hbox{and}\quad[3,1,3].
$$
For a prime $p>7$, the first represents $p$ exactly when
$$
\left(\frac p5\right)=\left(\frac p7\right)=1,
$$
and the second represents $p$ exactly when both <Legendre symbols> are $-1$.
