Solving an indeterminate third degree equation in rational numbers. Sylvester and Lucas

Tatiana Lavrinenko (2002)

Revue d'histoire des mathématiques

Similarity:

This article concerns the problem of solving diophantine equations in rational numbers. It traces the way in which the 19th century broke from the centuries-old tradition of the purely algebraic treatment of this problem. Special attention is paid to Sylvester’s work “On Certain Ternary Cubic-Form Equations” (1879–1880), in which the algebraico-geometrical approach was applied to the study of an indeterminate equation of third degree.

A dynamical Shafarevich theorem for twists of rational morphisms

Brian Justin Stout (2014)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

Let K denote a number field, S a finite set of places of K, and ϕ: ℙⁿ → ℙⁿ a rational morphism defined over K. The main result of this paper states that there are only finitely many twists of ϕ defined over K which have good reduction at all places outside S. This answers a question of Silverman in the affirmative.
