چکیده

Let n ≥ 3, v1(x), . . . , vn−1(x) ∈ Z[x] and u ∈ {−1, 1}, then x(x− v1(a)y) · · · (x− vn−1(a)y) + uy = ±1 is called a parametrized familiy of Thue equations, if a ∈ Z and the solutions x, y are searched in Z; cf. Thomas (1993). There are several results concerning parametrized families of cubic and quartic families of Thue equations, see Mignotte et al. (1996) and the references therein. Thomas (1993) proved that if 0 < b < c and a ≥ [2 × 10(b + 2c)] 4.85 c−b , then the only solutions of the equation x(x− ay)(x− ay) + uy = ±1 u = ±1 are ±{(1, 0), (0, u), (au, u), (au, u)}. As far as we know this is the only case, when a two-parametric familiy of Thue equations is completely solved. In this paper we consider diophantine problems which are related to a two-parametric quartic polynomial. Let 1 < a < b, a, b ∈ Z and Pa,b(x) = x(x− 1)(x− a)(x− b)− 1. This polynomial is irreducible (see Halter-Koch et al. (1998)). Denoting by α one of the zeros of Pa,b(x) the number field K = Q(α) is quartic. Let O = Z[α] and UO be the group of units of O. In the first part, we study the algebraic properties of K. We prove

A parametric family of quartic Thue equations

In this paper we prove that the Diophantine equation x − 4cxy + (6c+ 2)xy + 4cxy + y = 1, where c ≥ 3 is an integer, has only the trivial solutions (±1, 0), (0,±1). Using the method of Tzanakis, we show that solving this quartic Thue equation reduces to solving the system of Pellian equations (2c+ 1)U − 2cV 2 = 1, (c− 2)U − cZ = −2, and we prove that all solutions of this system are given by (U...

A Generalization of a Theorem of Bumby on Quartic Diophantine Equations

Given a parametrized family of cubic models of elliptic curves Et over Q, it is a notoriously difficult problem to find absolute bounds for the number of integral points on Et (and, indeed, in many cases, it is unlikely such bounds even exist). Perhaps somewhat surprisingly, the situation is often radically different for quartic models. In a series of classical papers, Ljunggren (see e.g. [5] a...
