Let be a fixed number field and let be a fixed rational linear subspace for which the associated norm form has no unit-family degeneracy. There are effective constants such that every with nonzero field norm satisfies
To prove this, factor the principal ideal , write its generators as a bounded factor times powers of fundamental units, use the linear relations defining , and apply the Baker lower bound for a homogeneous linear form in logarithms to bound the unit exponents by . For with , , and for a basis of , the coprime degrees rule out the degeneracy.
