A refinement of Heath-Brown's theorem on quadratic forms

In his paper from 1996 on quadratic forms Heath-Brown developed a version of the circle method to count points in the intersection of an unbounded quadric with a lattice of short period, if each point is given a weight, and approximated this quantity by the integral of the weight function against a measure on the quadric. The weight function is assumed to be $C_0^{\mathrm{\infty }}$-smooth and vanish near the singularity of the quadric. In our work we allow the weight function to be finitely smooth, not vanish at the singularity and have an explicit decay at infinity. The paper uses only elementary results from the number theory and is available to readers without a number-theoretical background.
