Abstract

Two theorems witnessing the abundance of geometrically trivial strongly minimal autonomous differential equations of arbitrary order are shown. The first one states that a generic algebraic vector field of degree d2d\geq 2 on the affine space of dimension n2n \geq 2 is strongly minimal and geometrically trivial. The second one states that if X0X_0 is the complement of a smooth hyperplane section HH of a smooth projective variety XX of dimension nn, then for dd large enough, the system of differential equations associated with a generic vector field on X0X_0 with a pole of order at most dd along HH is strongly minimal and geometrically trivial. This produces the first examples of meromorphic functions that are new in the sense of Painlev\'e and satisfy autonomous differential equations of order n4n \geq 4.
