Quadratic forms in $I^n$ of dimension $2^n+2^{n-1}$

For $n\ge 3$, confirming a weak version of a conjecture of Hoffmann, we show that every anisotropic quadratic form in $I^n$ of dimension $2^n+2^{n-1}$ splits over a finite extension of the base field of degree not divisible by $4$. The first new case is $n=4$, where we obtain a classification of the...
