Abstract

In this thesis we apply the modular method to show the non-existence of certain asymptotic solutions to the equation Aa^p +Bb^p = Cc^3 over the ring of integers of a number field K. The modular method uses the conjectured relation between modular forms and elliptic curves. To introduce these ideas we cover the necessary details of elliptic curves and Galois theory. The latter is studied, in great detail, using Galois representations. Finally, we specialize our number field K to imaginary quadratic extensions of Q. This specialization requires a close study of S-units and S-unit equations over these fields.
