The ThueSolve function computes all the solutions to a Thue equation or inequality.
Let be a binary form with integer coefficients and irreducible over the rationals. A binary form is a bivariate polynomial where every term has the same degree. Let be an integer. A Thue equation has the form and a Thue inequality has the form .
If the degree of is less than , then isolve is used to find the solutions. Otherwise, there exists a finite number of solutions and this command finds all solutions given the constraint .
The variables may be explicitly given.
Setting infolevel to or greater will give additional information when solutions do not exist or when solving a Thue inequality.
ThueSolve: try the following constant terms -3, -1, 0, 1, 3
ThueSolve: equality holds for the follow constant terms 0, 1
The NumberTheory[ThueSolve] command was introduced in Maple 2016.
