Remark: We assume T(X) = k has at least one integral solution.
A Tentative Claim :
If there is more than one distinct integral solution, X, for our Diophantine equation, then we claim [tex]\varphi \bigotimes X \in \mathbb{Z^{n}}[/tex] and
T([tex]\varphi \bigotimes X[/tex]) = T([tex]\varphi_{1}x_{1 }[/tex], [tex]\varphi_{2}x_{2 }[/tex], [tex]\varphi_{3}x_{3 }[/tex], ..., [tex]\varphi_{n}x_{n }[/tex]) = k
for some [tex]\varphi_{i} \in \mathbb{Q} \cup {0}[/tex] such that [tex]\varphi_{i} \ne 1[/tex] for [tex]1 \le i \le n[/tex].
It's worth a try. Right?
