Exponential Diophantine Equations

Abstract: This is a integrated presentation of the theory of exponential diophantine equations. The authors present, in a clear and unified fashion, applications to exponential diophantine equations and linear recurrence sequences of the Gelfond-Baker theory of linear forms in logarithms of algebraic numbers. Topics covered include the Thue equations, the generalised hyperelliptic equation, and the Fermat and Catalan equations. The necessary preliminaries are given in the first three chapters. Each chapter ends with a s… Show more

“…, i?t are multiplicatively independent, and s -1 = r + <, so their corresponding vectors are linearly independent. Then, by Lemma The usual regulator argument (for example [6], p.103), already alluded to, does not yield an upper bound for the fc ; -because the elements ni, . .…”

“…For various generalizations and related results, we refer to [20] and [24]. In the case when / is monic and its discriminant D(f) is different from zero, it follows from a theorem of Gy6ry [9] (see also Lemma 3 in Section 4) that In our paper, we shall deal with equation (13) in the important special case when / is irreducible.…”

“…The proof of Theorem 2 uses the theory of lower bounds for linear forms in logarithms of algebraic numbers, and a very good introduction to this topic is [11]. Since such lower bounds usually involve some astronomical constants, the constant c 1 turns out to be very large, while the constant c 2 turns out to be very small.…”
