Abstract

To each nontotally real cubic extension K of Q and to each generator α of the cubic field K, we attach a family of cubic Thue equations, indexed by the units of K, and we prove that this family of cubic Thue equations has only a finite number of integer solutions, by giving an effective upper bound for these solutions.

Notes

  1. 1.

    The lower bound follows from looking at the norm!
