Abstract
In [Kim05], Kim gave a new proof of Siegel's Theorem that there are only finitely many -integral points on . One advantage of Kim's method is that it in principle allows one to actually find these points, but the calculations grow vastly more complicated as the size of increases. In this paper, we implement a refinement of Kim's method to explicitly compute various examples where has size which has been introduced in [BD19]. In so doing, we exhibit new examples of a natural generalisation of a conjecture of Kim.
