 Hilbert's Tenth Problem. Diophantine Equations. By K.Podnieks
If we could construct an equation with a parameter such that that set S would be unsolvable, then we had proved that Hilbert's tenth problem is unsolvable.
Thus, in 1961 the unsolvability of (modified) Hilbert's 10th problem for exponential Diophantine equations was proved.
The idea that problems like Hilbert's, maybe, have negative solutions could appear only in 1930s, when the notion of algorithm ("process, which could determine by a finite number of operations...") was formalized.

Matiyasevich's theorem, proven in 1970 by Yuri Matiyasevich, implies that (Click link for more info and facts about Hilbert's tenth problem) Hilbert's tenth problem is unsolvable.
The conjunction of Matiyasevich's theorem with a result discovered in the 1930s implies that a solution to Hilbert's tenth problem is impossible.
Matiyasevich's theorem has since been used to prove that many problems from (A hard lump produced by the concretion of mineral salts; found in hollow organs or ducts of the body) calculus and (An equation containing differentials of a function) differential equations are unsolvable.

 E-unification
Consequently the unification problem for commutative rings is precisely the problem of the solvability of Diophantine systems in the integers, known as Hilbert's Tenth problem.
Such a system was studied by Franzen in Hilbert's tenth problem is of unification type zero, J. Automated Reasoning 9 (1992), 169-178, where he shows the unification type is nullary.
When Plotkin originally proposed that the notion of unification be extended to E-unification in 1972 he presented the example of the associative law for a binary operation -- this of course defines semigroups.

 Profiles of Women in Mathematics: Julia Robinson
In 1948 Robinson began work on the tenth problem on Hilbert's famous list: "to find an effective method for determining if a given diophantine equation is solvable in integers." Although she also published papers on a variety of questions, the tenth problem was to occupy the largest portion of her professional career.
In view of her earlier proof that exponentiation is existentially definable in terms of any function of roughly exponential growth, the negative solution of Hilbert's problem was reduced to finding an existential definition of such a function.
In 1975, Robinson became the first woman mathematician to be elected to the National Academy of Sciences, and, in 1983, she became the first woman president of the American Mathematical Society.

 Background to Richard Kaye's research interests
Matiyasevich's theorem on Hilbert's tenth problem also has important applications to the fine structure of models of arithmetic, especially weak fragments of PA. A typical sort of application shows that the addition and/or multiplication in a nonstandard model cannot be computable.
Hilbert's tenth problem (posed in 1900) asks for an algorithm to decide which diophantine equations (polynomial equations of the form p(x1,...,xn)=0 in several variables but with integer coefficients) can be solved in the integers.
The fine structure theory of such models is in many ways analogous to Galois theory, and the automorphism groups of recursively saturated models of PA and Pres are studied as well.
