For a fixed polynomial with at least two distinct complex roots, integer solutions with and have an effectively bounded exponent. Factorization over a splitting field and the fixed differences between distinct roots control common ideal divisors. Outside a fixed set of primes, each factor's valuation is divisible by , where is its root multiplicity. The generalized power-equation estimates from linear forms in logarithms of algebraic numbers, including unit and exceptional-prime factors, give the exponent bound. A single-root polynomial and the values cannot be included: , and for , give infinite exponent families.
