Abstract

We prove an interpolation result for homogeneous polynomials over the integers, or more generally for PIDs with finite residue fields. Previous proofs of this result use the well-known but nontrivial fact that class groups of rings of integers are torsion. We provide an independent proof using elementary techniques.
