Summary: In this paper we consider proper cycles of indefinite integral quadratic forms $F=(a,b,c)$ with discriminant $\Delta $. We prove that the proper cycles of $F$ can be obtained using their consecutive right neighbors $R^i(F)$ for $i\ge 0$. We also derive explicit relations in the cycle and proper cycle of $F$ when the length $l$ of the cycle of $F$ is odd, using the transformations $\tau (F)=(-a,b,-c)$ and $\chi (F)=(-c,b,-a)$. (English)
