✦ Synopsis


We consider the family of relative Thue equations

where the parameter t, the root of unity µ and the solutions x and y are integers in the same imaginary quadratic number field.

We prove that there are only trivial solutions (with |x|, |y| ≤ 1), if |t| is large enough or if the discriminant of the quadratic number field is large enough or if Re t = -1/2 (there are a few more solutions in this case which are explicitly listed). In the case Re t = -1/2, an algebraic method is used, in the general case, Baker's method yields the result.

Focusing on a particular case, we will show that one can explicitly determine the quartic fields \(\mathbf{K}\) that have ideal class groups of exponent \(\leqslant 2\), provided that \(\mathbf{K} / \mathbf{Q}\) is not normal, provided that \(\mathbf{K}\) is a quadratic extension of a fixed imaginar
