Norm Form Equations and Linear Divisibility Sequences

Number Theory 2021-11-18 v3

Abstract

Finding integer solutions to norm form equations is a classical Diophantine problem. Using the units of the associated coefficient ring, we can produce sequences of solutions to these equations. It is known that these solutions can be written as tuples of linear recurrence sequences. We show that for certain families of norm forms defined over quartic fields, there exist integrally equivalent forms making any one fixed coordinate sequence a linear divisibility sequence.
