In mathematics, an '''invariant of a binary form''' is a polynomial in the coefficients of a [[binary form]] in two variables ''x'' and ''y'' that remains invariant under unimodular transformations of the variables ''x'' and ''y''.
 
The invariants of a binary form are a graded algebra, and {{harvtxt|Gordan|1868}} proved that this algebra is finitely generated if the base field is the complex numbers.
