Abstract

We consider the subgroup Aut(D) consisting of automorphisms of K[x,y] commuting with a derivation D, where K is an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. We prove that if D is simple (i.e. D does not stabilize non-trivial ideals), then Aut(D)=1, in the case where D is of Shamsuddin type this result was proven by R.Baltazar in 2014 (arXiv:1412.8373). Moreover, we describe Aut(D) for Shamsuddin type derivations and deduce that Aut(D)=1 for a general such derivation implies D is simple.
