Abstract

AbstractSuppose we are given a “Thue equation” f(x, y) = 1, where f is a binary form with coefficients in a function field K of characteristic zero. A typical result is that if f is of degree at least 5 and has no multiple factors, then every solution x = (x, y) of the equation with components in K has H(x)≤90H(f) + 250g. Here g is the genus of K and H(x), H(f) are suitably defined heights. No assumption is made that x be “integral” in some sense. As an application, bounds are derived for “integral” solutions of hyperelliptic equations over K.
