In algebra, a quadratic function, a quadratic polynomial, a polynomial of degree 2, or simply a quadratic, is a polynomial function in one or more variables in which the highest-degree term is of the second degree.
Quadratic form. In mathematics, a quadratic form is a homogeneous polynomial of degree two in a number of variables. For example, 4 x 2 + 2 x y â 3 y 2 {\displaystyle 4x^{2}+2xy-3y^{2}} is a quadratic form in the variables x and y. Quadratic forms occupy a central place in various branches of mathematics, including number theory, linear algebra, group theory, differential geometry, differential topology, and Lie theory.
