Hyperbolicity and integral points off divisors in subgeneral position in projective algebraic varieties

Do Duc Thai, Nguyen Huu Kien (2015)

Acta Arithmetica

The purpose of this article is twofold. The first is to find the dimension of the set of integral points off divisors in subgeneral position in a projective algebraic variety V k ̅ m , where k is a number field. As consequences, the results of Ru-Wong (1991), Ru (1993), Noguchi-Winkelmann (2003) and Levin (2008) are recovered. The second is to show the complete hyperbolicity of the complement of divisors in subgeneral position in a projective algebraic variety V m .

Index form equations in quintic fields

István Gaál, Kálmán Győry (1999)

Acta Arithmetica

The problem of determining power integral bases in algebraic number fields is equivalent to solving the corresponding index form equations. As is known (cf. Győry [25]), every index form equation can be reduced to an equation system consisting of unit equations in two variables over the normal closure of the original field. However, the unit rank of the normal closure is usually too large for practical use. In a recent paper Győry [27] succeeded in reducing index form equations to systems of unit...

La conjecture de Manin pour certaines surfaces de Châtelet

Kevin Destagnol (2016)

Acta Arithmetica

Following the line of attack of La Bretèche, Browning and Peyre, we prove Manin's conjecture in its strong form conjectured by Peyre for a family of Châtelet surfaces which are defined as minimal proper smooth models of affine surfaces of the form Y² - aZ² = F(X,1), where a = -1, F ∈ ℤ[x₁,x₂] is a polynomial of degree 4 whose factorisation into irreducibles contains two non-proportional linear factors and a quadratic factor which is irreducible over ℚ [i]. This result...

Multiplicative dependence of shifted algebraic numbers

Paulius Drungilas, Artūras Dubickas (2003)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We show that the set obtained by adding all sufficiently large integers to a fixed quadratic algebraic number is multiplicatively dependent. So also is the set obtained by adding rational numbers to a fixed cubic algebraic number. Similar questions for algebraic numbers of higher degrees are also raised. These are related to the Prouhet-Tarry-Escott type problems and can be applied to the zero-distribution and universality of some zeta-functions.

Multiplicative relations on binary recurrences

Florian Luca, Volker Ziegler (2013)

Acta Arithmetica

Given a binary recurrence u n n 0 , we consider the Diophantine equation u n 1 x 1 u n L x L = 1 with nonnegative integer unknowns n 1 , . . . , n L , where n i n j for 1 ≤ i < j ≤ L, m a x | x i | : 1 i L K , and K is a fixed parameter. We show that the above equation has only finitely many solutions and the largest one can be explicitly bounded. We demonstrate the strength of our method by completely solving a particular Diophantine equation of the above form.
