Witt groups of Severi-Brauer varieties and of function fields of conics
The Witt group of skew hermitian forms over a division algebra D with symplectic involution is canonically isomorphic to the Witt group of symmetric bilinear forms over the Severi-Brauer variety of D with values in a suitable line bundle; for quaternion algebras, two five-term exact sequences relate
