Diophantine integrability
preprint
posted on 2005-08-16, 11:02 authored by R.G. HalburdThe heights of iterates of the discrete Painleve equations over number fields appear to grow no
faster than polynomials while the heights of generic solutions of non-integrable discrete equations
grow exponentially. This gives rise to a simple and effective numerical test for the integrability
of discrete equations. Numerical evidence and theoretical results are presented. Connections with
other tests for integrability and Vojta’s dictionary are discussed.
