We use this to give a Chabauty-like method for finding p-adic approximations to p-integral points on such curves when the Mordell-Weil rank of the Jacobian equals the genus. In this case we get an explicit bound for the number of such p-integral points, and we are able to use the method in explicit computation. An important aspect of the method is that it only requires a basis of the Mordell-Weil group tensored with the rationals.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2013-04-05T21:10:47.000Z", "title": "p-adic height pairings and integral points on hyperelliptic curves", "comment": "26 pages", "journal": null, "doi": null }, { "version": "v3", "updated": "2014-12-30T18:11:56.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11S80", "14G40", "11Y50", "11G30", "11D41" ], "keywords": [ "p-adic height pairing", "hyperelliptic curve", "p-integral points", "mordell-weil rank", "finding p-adic approximations" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 27, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1302.2944B" } } }
