Abstract

Let B={bi}i=1{\mathcal B}=\{b_i \}_{i=1}^\infty be a fixed sequence of pairwise distinct elements of a number field kk. Given the integers 2sr2\leq s \leq r, assuming a quantitative version of Vojta's conjecture on the bounded degree algebraic numbers on a number field kk, we provide lower and upper bounds for the cardinal number of Gr,sBM{\mathbf G}_{r,s}^{{\mathcal B}_M} the set of polynomials fk[x]f\in k[x] of degree r2r\geq 2 whose irreducible factors have multiplicity strictly less than ss and f(b1),,f(bM)f(b_1),\cdots, f(b_M) are nonzero ss-powerful elements in kk, where M=2r2+6r+1M=2r^2+6r +1 if r=sr=s, and 2sr2+sr+12sr^2+ s r+1 otherwise. Moreover, considering certain conditions on B{\mathcal B}, we show the existence of an integer M0>MM_0> M such that no polynomial in Gr,sBM{\mathbf G}_{r,s}^{{\mathcal B}_M} takes ss-powerful values at all of b1,,bnb_1, \cdots, b_n for nM0n\geq M_0.
