Abstract

Let PP and QQ be polynomials in one variable over an algebraically closed field kk of characteristic zero. Let ff and gg be elements of a function field \K\K over kk such that P(f)=Q(g).P(f)=Q(g). We give conditions on PP and QQ such that the height of ff and gg can be effectively bounded, and moreover, we give sufficient conditions on PP and QQ under which ff and gg must be constant.
