Abstract

We study integral points on the quadratic twists ED : y 2 = x 3 − D2x of the congruent number curve. We give upper bounds on the number of integral points in each coset of 2ED(Q) in ED(Q) and show that their total is ≪ (3.8)rank ED(Q) . We further show that the average number of non-torsion integral points in this family is bounded above by 2. As an application we also deduce from our upper bounds that the system of simultaneous Pell equations aX2 − bY 2 = d, bY 2 − cZ2 = d for pairwise coprime positive integers a, b, c, d, has at most ≪ (3.6)ω(abcd) integer solutions.
