Diagonalizable Quartic Thue Equations with Negative Discriminant

Number Theory 2019-02-20 v2

Abstract

The Thue-Siegel method is applied to derive an upper bound for the number of solutions to Thue's equation F(x,y)=1F(x,y) = 1 where FF is a quartic diagonalizable form with negative discriminant. Computation is used in this argument to handle forms whose discriminant is small in absolute value. We then apply our results to bound the number of integral points on a certain family of elliptic curves.
