On the geometrization of a lemma of Singer and van der Put
In this paper, we give a geometrization and a generalization of a lemma of differential Galois theory, used by Singer and van der Put in their reference book. This geometrization, in addition of giving a nice insight on this result, offers us the opportunity to investigate several points of differential algebra and differential algebraic geometry. We study the class of simple Δ-schemes and prove that they all have a coarse space of leaves. Furthermore, instead of considering schemes endowed with...
On the Jacobian ideal of the binary discriminant.
Let Δ denote the discriminant of the generic binary d-ic. We show that for d ≥ 3, the Jacobian ideal of Δ is perfect of height 2. Moreover we describe its SL2-equivariant minimal resolution and the associated differential equations satisfied by Δ. A similar result is proved for the resultant of two forms of orders d, e whenever d ≥ e-1. If Φn denotes the locus of binary forms with total root multiplicity ≥ d-n, then we show that the ideal of Φn is also perfect, and we construct a covariant which...
