Estimates for representation numbers of quadratic forms
Let f be a positive integral binary quadratic form of discriminant -D, and let r_f(n) be the number of representations of n by f. We give various estimates and asymptotics for the moments \sum_{n\leq x} r_f(n)^{\beta} for all \beta >= 0 and uniformly in D=o(x). As an application we study sums of two squareful numbers. This is joint work with A. Granville.
