Abstract

Abstract Let x 0 , x 1 , x 2 , x 3 be polynomials in a variable t and with coefficients in a field k of character of characteristic 0. If and , then x 0 = x 1 = x 2 = x 3 = 0. This partially answers a question of Pjatetskii-Š;apiro and Šafarevič about the K 3-surface . The proof uses a technique of M. R. Christie.
