Abstract

We use geometric algebra and the theory of automorphic forms to realize theta series attached to an indefinite quadratic form as the sum of a specific Eisenstein series and an L2-function. From this we obtain explicit formulas for the measure of the representation of an integer by an indefinite quadratic form.
