Some applications of decomposable form equations to resultant equations
1. Introduction. The purpose of this paper is to establish some general finiteness results (cf. Theorems 1 and 2) for resultant equations over an arbitrary finitely generated integral domain R over ℤ. Our Theorems 1 and 2 improve and generalize some results of Wirsing [25], Fujiwara [6], Schmidt [21] and Schlickewei [17] concerning resultant equations over ℤ. Theorems 1 and 2 are consequences of a finiteness result (cf. Theorem 3) on decomposable form equations over R. Some applications of Theorems...
