On the height of solutions to norm form equations

Number Theory 2018-02-20 v2

Abstract

Let kk be a number field. We consider norm form equations associated to a full OkO_k-module contained in a finite extension field ll. It is known that the set of solutions is naturally a union of disjoint equivalence classes of solutions. We prove that each nonempty equivalence class of solutions contains a representative with Weil height bounded by an expression that depends on parameters defining the norm form equation.
