Let K be an algebraic number field with ring of integers OK and f(X) ∈ OK[X]. In this paper we establish improved explicit upper bounds for the size of solutions in OK, of diophantine equations Y2 = f(X), where f(X) has at least three roots of odd order, and Ym = f(X), where m is an integer ≥ 3 and f(X) has at least two roots of order prime to m.
