Abstract

We study the class of planar polynomial vector fields admitting Darboux first integrals of the type i=1rfiαi\prod_{i=1}^r f_i^{\alpha_i}, where the αi\alpha_i's are positive real numbers and the fif_i's are polynomials defining curves with only one place at infinity. We show that these vector fields have an extended reduction procedure and give an algorithm which, from a part of the extended reduction of the vector field, computes a Darboux first integral for generic exponents.
