Liouville's Theorem on integration in finite terms for $\mathrm D_\infty,$ $ \mathrm{SL}_2$ and Weierstrass field extensions
Abstract
Let be a differential field of characteristic zero and the field of constants of be an algebraically closed field. Let be a differential field extension of having as its field of constants and that where is either an elementary extension of or and is weierstrassian (in the sense of Kolchin ([Page 803, Kolchin1953]) over or is a Picard-Vessiot extension of having a differential Galois group isomorphic to either the special linear group or the infinite dihedral subgroup of In this article, we prove that Liouville's theorem on integration in finite terms ([Theorem, Rosenlicht1968]) holds for . That is, if and then there is a positive integer and for there are elements and such that
