Let L, M be regular quadratic lattices over Zp. The local density αp(L, M) is an important invariant in the theory of representation of quadratic forms and they appear naturally in Fourier coefficients of Eisenstein series. In spite of the importance we knew little except the case when either L = M or rk L = 1 and M is unimodular. Evaluating them is a laborious task.
