Jan 24, 2011 at 4:40 comment added Adrian Barquero-Sanchez @Gerry Myerson Thanks a lot, I'll try to see if the library has that volume with the collected papers and if not maybe I can try that interlibrary loan you mentioned.
Jan 24, 2011 at 1:56 comment added Gerry Myerson I haven't seen these volumes myself, only a reference to them: T. Nagell, Collected papers of Trygve Nagell. Vol. 1–4., Edited by Paulo Ribenboim. Queen’s Papers in Pure and Applied Mathematics, Queen’s University 121, Kingston, ON, 2002.
Jan 23, 2011 at 23:28 comment added Gerry Myerson @Adrian, good luck, those Norwegian journals are not easy to find. Mordell credits Nagell with the result, and gives a different citation: Einige Gleichungen von der Form $ay^2+by+c=dx^3$, Vid Akad Skrifter Oslo 1930, Nr.7. Interlibrary loan might be the way to go.

Jan 23, 2011 at 20:41 comment added Adrian Barquero-Sanchez @KConrad Silverman's book cites the following article by T. Nagell as a reference: Solution de quelque problemes dans la theorie arithmetique des cubiques planes du premier genre. Wid. Akad. Skrifter Oslo I, 1935. Nr. 1. Do you know where can I find that article? I wasn't able to locate it after doing a google search, I also tried looking in the database of my university's library but it doesn't show up in the search.
Jan 23, 2011 at 20:03 comment added KConrad This particular example is discussed in Silverman's book The Arithmetic of Elliptic Curves. On the Google books site for that book, do a search for "5234".
