Summary
We give an overview of the history of the classical Diophantine equations treated in our book and describe the ineffective finiteness results for those. We consider unit equations, Thue equations, hyper- and superelliptic equations, the Schinzel–Tijdeman equation, Catalan’s equation, decomposable form equations, and discriminant equations.
