In this paper we completely solve a simple quartic family of Thue equations over $\mathbb{C}(T)$. Specifically, we apply the ABC-Theorem to find all solutions $(x,y) \in \mathbb{C}[T] \times \mathbb{C}[T]$ to the set of Thue equations…
We consider the parametric family of sextic Thue equations \[ x^6-2mx^5y-5(m+3)x^4y^2-20x^3y^3+5mx^2y^4+2(m+3)xy^5+y^6=\lambda \] where $m\in\mathbb{Z}$ is an integer and $\lambda$ is a divisor of $27(m^2+3m+9)$. We show that the only…
Let $t$ be any imaginary quadratic integer with $|t|\geq 100$. We prove that the inequality \[ |F_t(X,Y)| = | X^4 - t X^3 Y - 6 X^2 Y^2 + t X Y^3 + Y^4 | \leq 1 \] has only trivial solutions $(x,y)$ in integers of the same imaginary…
To each non totally real cubic extension $K$ of $\Q$ and to each generator $\alpha$ of the cubic field $K$, we attach a family of cubic Thue equations, indexed by the units of $K$, and we prove that this family of cubic Thue equations has…
E. Thomas was one of the first to solve an infinite family of Thue equations, when he considered the forms $F_n(X, Y )= X^3 -(n-1)X^2Y -(n+2)XY^2 -Y^3$ and the family of equations $F_n(X, Y )=\pm 1$, $n\in {\mathbf N}$. This family is…
Let $K$ be a field of char $K\neq 2$. For $a\in K$, we give an explicit answer to the field isomorphism problem of the simplest quartic polynomial $X^4-aX^3-6X^2+aX+1$ over $K$ as the special case of the field intersection problem via…
In our recent paper we gave an efficient algorithm to calculate "small" solutions of relative Thue equations (where "small" means an upper bound of type $10^{500}$ for the sizes of solutions). Here we apply this algorithm to calculating…
We exactly determine the integral solutions to a previously untreated infinite family of cubic Thue equations of the form $F(x,y)=1$ with at least $5$ such solutions. Our approach combines elementary arguments, with lower bounds for linear…
It is a classical problem in algebraic number theory to decide if a number field admits power integral bases and further to calculate all generators of power integral bases. This problem is especially delicate to consider in an infinite…
We consider and completely solve the parametrized family of Thue equations \begin{eqnarray*}X(X-Y)(X+Y)(X-\lambda Y)+Y^4=\xi,\end{eqnarray*} where the solutions $x,y$ come from the ring $\mathbb{C}[T]$, the parameter…
We consider infinite parametric families of octic fields, that are quartic extensions of quadratic fields. We describe all relative power integral bases of the octic fields over the quadratic subfields.
In this paper, we study additively indecomposable quadratic forms over real biquadratic and simplest cubic fields. In particular, we show that over these fields, we can always find such a classical form in 2 variables, which differs from…
Let $m\geq -1$ be an integer. We give a correspondence between integer solutions to the parametric family of cubic Thue equations \[ X^3-mX^2Y-(m+3)XY^2-Y^3=\lambda \] where $\lambda>0$ is a divisor of $m^2+3m+9$ and isomorphism classes of…
We describe an efficient algorithm to calculate generators of power integral bases in composites of totally real fields with imaginary quadratic fields. We show that the calculation can be reduced to solving index form equations in the…
Let $M=Q(i\sqrt{d})$ be any imaginary quadratic field with a positive square-free $d$. Consider the polynomial \[ f(x)=x^3-ax^2-(a+3)x-1, \] with a parameter $a\in Z$. Let $K=M(\alpha)$, where $\alpha$ is a root of $f$. This is an infinite…
Let $F(x,y)$ be an irreducible binary form of degree $\geq 3$ with integer coefficients and with real roots. Let $M$ be an imaginary quadratic field, with ring of integers $Z_M$. Let $K>0$. We describe an efficient method how to reduce the…
Some time ago we extended our monogenity investigations and calculations of generators of power integral bases to the relative case. Up to now we considered (usually totally real) extensions of complex quartic fields. In the present paper…
We introduce a new class of generalised quadratic forms over totally real number fields, which is rich enough to capture the arithmetic of arbitrary systems of quadrics over the rational numbers. We explore this connection through a version…
We obtain good estimates on the ranks of universal quadratic forms over Shanks' family of the simplest cubic fields and several other families of totally real number fields. As the main tool we characterize all the indecomposable integers…
In this paper, we establish the explicit lower bound estimates for the rank of universal quadratic forms in some certain families of real cubic fields under the condition of density one. The more general results that represent all multiples…
