Let k[[x,y]] be the formal power series ring in two variables over a field k of characteristic zero and let d be a nonzero derivation of k[[x,y]]. We prove that if Ker(d) ≠ k then Ker(d) = Ker(δ), where δ is a jacobian derivation of k[[x,y]]. Moreover, Ker(d) is of the form k[[h]] for some h ∈ k[[x,y]].
We develop a new combinatorial method to deal with a degree estimate for subalgebras generated by two elements in different environments. We obtain a lower bound for the degree of the elements in two-generated subalgebras of a free associative algebra over a field of zero characteristic. We also reproduce a somewhat refined degree estimate of Shestakov and Umirbaev for the polynomial algebra, which plays an essential role in the recent celebrated solution of the Nagata conjecture and the strong...
