The field of Nash functions and factorization of polynomials

Stanisław Spodzieja (1996)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

The algebraically closed field of Nash functions is introduced. It is shown that this field is an algebraic closure of the field of rational functions in several variables. We give conditions for the irreducibility of polynomials with Nash coefficients, a description of factors of a polynomial over the field of Nash functions and a theorem on continuity of factors.

The five-variable Volterra system

Janusz Zieliński (2011)

Open Mathematics

We give a description of all polynomial constants of the five-variable Volterra derivation, hence of all polynomial first integrals of its corresponding Volterra system of differential equations. The Volterra system plays a significant role in plasma physics and population biology.

The fourteenth problem of Hilbert for polynomial derivations

Andrzej Nowicki (2002)

Banach Center Publications

We present some facts, observations and remarks concerning the problem of finiteness of the rings of constants for derivations of polynomial rings over a commutative ring k containing the field ℚ of rational numbers.
