| contents | We show that for any quadratic extension of number fields $K/F$, there exists an abelian variety $A/F$ of positive rank whose rank does not grow upon base change to $K$. This result implies that Hilbert's tenth problem over the ring of integers of any number field has a negative solution. That is, for the ring $\mathcal{O}_K$ of integers of any number field $K$, there does not exist an algorithm that answers the question of whether a polynomial equation in several variables over $\mathcal{O}_K$ has solutions in $\mathcal{O}_K$. |
