Abstract: In this paper some properties of quadratic forms whose base points lie in the point set $F_{\overline{\Pi}}$, the fundamental domain of the modular group, and transforming these forms into the reduced forms with the same discriminant $\Delta<0$ are given.

Keywords: binary quadratic forms, reduced forms, extended modular group

Classification (MSC2000): 11E25
