Descent divisibility: if $r$ is squarefree, $\gcd(\ell, m) = 1$, and $r^2\ell^4 + Ar\ell^2 m^2 + Bm^4 = rm^4\sigma^2$, then $r \mid B$.
(Lemma 25.5) The set of squarefree integers $r$ admitting a coprime quadruple $(\ell, m, \sigma)$ with $r^2\ell^4 + Ar\ell^2 m^2 + Bm^4 = rm^4\sigma^2$ is finite (it is contained in the divisors of $B$).
Abstract descent data: an abelian group $A$, a subgroup $\mathrm{im}(\varphi) \subseteq A$, a non-zero integer $B$ controlling the descent, and a "descent representative" $A \to \mathbb{Z}$.

Instances For
Axiom packaging Lemma 25.5: the descent representative of any element divides $B$.
Compatibility part of Lemma 25.3: equivalent elements modulo $\mathrm{im}(\varphi)$ have the same descent representative.
Separation part of Lemma 25.3: elements with the same descent representative differ by an element of $\mathrm{im}(\varphi)$.
The descent representative descends to a function on the quotient $A/\mathrm{im}(\varphi)$.
Instances For
The descent representative is injective on the quotient $A/\mathrm{im}(\varphi)$ by the separation part of Lemma 25.3.
The quotient $A/\mathrm{im}(\varphi)$ in any descent data is finite.
(Corollary 25.6) For two descent data, both quotients $A_1/\mathrm{im}(\varphi_1)$ and $A_2/\mathrm{im}(\varphi_2)$ are finite.
Image-finiteness version of Lemma 25.5: if a homomorphism $\pi : E'(\mathbb{Q}) \to \mathbb{Q}^\times/(\mathbb{Q}^\times)^2$ has integer representatives all dividing a fixed nonzero integer $B$, then the image of $\pi$ is finite.
