Symmetric multilinear forms on Hilbert spaces: Where do they attain their norm?

We characterize the sets of norm one vectors x1,…,xk in a Hilbert space H such that there exists a k-linear symmetric form attaining its norm at (x1,…,xk). We prove that in the bilinear case, any two vectors satisfy this property. However, for k≥3 only collinear vectors satisfy this property in the...
