Diagonal form

In mathematics, a diagonal form is an algebraic form without cross-terms involving different indeterminates. That is, it is of the form
- ∑ i = 1 n a i x i m for some degree m. Such forms F, and the hypersurfaces F = 0 they define in projective space, are very special in geometric terms, with many symmetries. They also include famous cases like the Fermat curves, and other examples well known in the theory of Diophantine equations. A great deal has been worked out about their theory: algebra
