Division-ample sets and the Diophantine problem for rings of integers
Journal de théorie des nombres de Bordeaux, Tome 17 (2005) no. 3, pp. 727-735.

Nous demontrons que le dixième problème de Hilbert pour un anneau d’entiers dans un corps de nombres K admet une réponse négative si K satisfait à deux conditions arithmétiques (existence d’un ensemble dit division-ample et d’une courbe elliptique de rang un sur K). Nous lions les ensembles division-ample à l’arithmétique des variétés abéliennes.

We prove that Hilbert’s Tenth Problem for a ring of integers in a number field K has a negative answer if K satisfies two arithmetical conditions (existence of a so-called division-ample set of integers and of an elliptic curve of rank one over K). We relate division-ample sets to arithmetic of abelian varieties.
