We develop a theory of differential equations associated to families of algebraic cycles in higher Chow groups (i.e., motivic cohomology groups). This formalism is related to inhomogenous Picard–Fuchs type differential equations. For a families of K3 surfaces the corresponding non–linear ODE turns out to be similar to Chazy’s equation.
Let be polynomials in variables without a common zero. Hilbert’s Nullstellensatz says that there are polynomials such that . The effective versions of this result bound the degrees of the in terms of the degrees of the . The aim of this paper is to generalize this to the case when the are replaced by arbitrary ideals. Applications to the Bézout theorem, to Łojasiewicz–type inequalities and to deformation theory are also discussed.
