In this note, we give simple examples of sets of quadratic forms that have minimal -universality criteria of multiple cardinalities. This answers a question of Kim, Kim, and Oh [KKO05] in the negative.
Nous donnons des exemples simples d’ensembles de formes quadratiques qui ont des critères d’universalité minimaux de plusieurs cardinalités. Nous donnons ainsi une réponse négative à une question de Kim, Kim et Oh [KKO05].
