  11D: Diophantine equations   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Equations whose solutions are curves of genus 1 are discussed in the subsection on elliptic curves.
Examples include cubics in two variables, homogeneous cubics in three variables, pairs of quadratics in four variables, and equations of the form y^2=Q(x) where Q is a polynomial of degree 3 or 4.
Sets of N equations in N+2 variables (or N+3 variables, if those equations are homogeneous) describe algebraic surfaces ; for example the question of the existence of a "rational box" is there.

 Diophantine equation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematics, a Diophantine equation is a polynomial equation that only allows the variables to be integers.
A linear Diophantine equation is an equation between two sums of monomials of degree zero or one.
The depth of the study of general Diophantine equations is shown by the characterisation of Diophantine sets as recursively enumerable.

Thue equations are Diophantine equations of the form f(x, y) = k, where k is some (integer) constant and f is a homogeneous polynomial in two variables.
Given a polynomial of degree at least 2 over the integers, this function returns the `Thue object' corresponding to f; such objects are used by the functions for solving Thue equations.
Given a Thue object t and integers a, b, this function returns the evaluation of the homogeneous polynomial f involved in t at (a, b), that is f(a, b).

 Sharpening in the binomial case and an application
Thue [36], [37], [38], [39] was the first to deduce classical Padé approximations for the binomial function and to apply it to the solution of (4).
Thue's ineffective improvement of the theorem of Liouville made it possible for him to restrict the number of solutions of (4) in certain cases.
Our method in paper III for the solution of (4) is essentially that of Thue refined in certain respects, especially by the use the common factor of the approximation polynomials as proposed by Chudnovsky [12].

 Thue   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Axel Thue was the son of Niels Thue and Nicoline Cathinka Eger.
Then Thue was appointed to Trondheim Technical College where he worked from 1894 until 1903.
In fact Thue wrote 35 papers on number theory, mostly on the theory of Diophantine equations, and these are reproduced in [2].

The equation (1) always represents in the (x, y)-plane a curve (an ellipse, a hyperbola, or a parabola), one or two straight lines, one isolated point, or nothing.
Since D and a are not 0, this means that a solution (X, Y) of the reduced equation (2) yields a solution (x, y) of the equation (1), iff X-bd+2ae is divisible by D and Y-by-d is divisible by 2a (else x and y would not be integer numbers).

So the research interest in diophantine equations is to find classes of such equations which can be solved.
This type of equations is called after him since then; he proved that such an equation only has a finite number of solutions.
In 1990, E. Thomas studied a parametrized family of cubic Thue equations: It turns out that there exist only a few "trivial" solutions for large values of the parameter.

 The Subspace Theorem
There is a further generalization of this result, which we shall not state, dealing with systems of inequalities to be solved in vectors consisting of integers from a given algebraic number field.
This generalization has a wide range of applications, such as finiteness results for Diophantine equations of the type considered in the previous sections, finiteness results for all sorts of Diophantine inequalities, transcendence results, finiteness results for integral points on surfaces, etc.

 On elliptic Diophantine equations that defy Thue's method: the case of the Ochoa curve, Roel J. Stroeker, Benjamin ...
The purpose of this paper is to show that elliptic diophantine equations cannot always be solved--in the most practical sense--by the Thue approach, that is, by solving each of the finitely many corresponding Thue equations of degree 4.
After a brief general discussion, which is necessarily of a heuristic nature, to substantiate our claim, we consider the elliptic equation associated with the Ochoa curve.
An explicit computational explanation as to the reasons for the failure of the Thue approach in this case is followed by a complete solution of the standard Weierstraß equation of this elliptic curve by a method which makes use of a recent lower bound for linear forms in elliptic logarithms.

Abstract: The rational solutions with as denominators powers of 2 of the elliptic diophantine equation y^2 = x^3 - 228 x + 848 are determined using three different methods.
In the second method we deduce Thue and Thue-Mahler equations, and solve them using linear forms in real and p-adic logarithms, derived from three-term (S-) unit equations.
Finally, a new idea of Yuri Bilu is applied, which avoids Thue and Thue-Mahler equations, and deduces four-term (S-) unit equations with special properties, that are again solved by linear forms in real and p-adic logarithms.
