As a corollary, we show that if $E/\\QQ$ is a fixed elliptic curve, then for all twists $E'$ of $E$ of sufficient height, and all torsion-free, rank-one subgroups $\\Gamma\\subseteq E'(\\QQ)$, $\\Gamma$ contains at most 6 integral points. Explicit computations for congruent number curves are included.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2008-08-14T20:26:14.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11G05", "11K60" ], "keywords": [ "integral points", "congruent number curves", "global tamagawa number", "explicit computations", "rank-one subgroups" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2008arXiv0802.2651I" } } }
