Popis: | In this paper, we present a new method of solving certain quartic and higher degree homogeneous polynomial diophantine equations in four variables. The method can also be applied to some diophantine systems in five or more variables. Under certain conditions, the method yields an arbitrarily large number of integer solutions of such diophantine equations and diophantine systems, two examples being a sextic equation in four variables and two simultaneous equations of degrees four and six in six variables. We also simultaneously obtain arbitrarily many rational solutions of certain related nonhomogeneous equations of high degree. We obtain these solutions without finding a curve of genus 0 or 1 on the variety defined by the equations concerned. It appears that there exist projective varieties on which there are an arbitrarily large number of rational points and which do not contain a curve of genus 0 or 1 with infinitely many rational points. |
