1. Reducible diophantine equations. The present paper will provide a general method for obtaining the complete parametric representation for the rational integer solutions of the multiplicative diophantine equation

1.1

for some specified range of k, where the aijk,bijk are non-negative integers and the fki, hki are decomposable forms, that is to say they are integral irreducible homogeneous polynomials over the rational field R of degree k in k variables which can be written as the product of k linear forms.
