Abstract in another language
Let C: Y2=a_n X^n+...+a_0 be a hyperelliptic curve with the a_i rational integers, n≥5, and the polynomial on the right-hand side irreducible. Let J be its Jacobian. We give a completely explicit upper bound for the integral points on the model C, provided we know at least one rational point on C and a Mordell-Weil basis for J(Q). We also explain a powerful refinement of the Mordell-Weil sieve which, combined with the upper bound, is capable of determining all the integral points. Our method is illustrated by determining the integral points on the genus 2 hyperelliptic models Y^2-Y=X^5-X and binom(Y,2)=binom(X,5).
