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.

The Lamé family of connections on the projective line

Frank Loray, Marius van der Put, Felix Ulmer (2008)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

This paper deals with rank two connections on the projective line having four simple poles with prescribed local exponents 1/4 and - 1 / 4 . This Lamé family of connections has been extensively studied in the literature. The differential Galois group of a Lamé connection is never maximal : it is either dihedral (finite or infinite) or reducible. We provide an explicit moduli space of those connections having a free underlying vector bundle and compute the algebraic locus of those reducible connections....

Théories de Galois différentielles et transcendance

Daniel Bertrand (2009)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

On décrit des preuves galoisiennes des versions logarithmique et exponentielle de la conjecture de Schanuel, pour les variétés abéliennes sur un corps de fonctions.

Two remarks about Picard-Vessiot extensions and elementary functions

Henryk Żołądek (2000)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We present a simple proof of the theorem which says that for a series of extensions of differential fields K ⊂ L ⊂ M, where K ⊂ M is Picard-Vessiot, the extension K ⊂ L is Picard-Vessiot iff the differential Galois group G a l L M is a normal subgroup of G a l K M . We also present a proof that the probability function Erf(x) is not an elementary function.
