All Darboux integrable difference equations on the quad-graph are described in the case of the equations that possess autonomous first-order integrals in one of the characteristics. A generalization of the discrete Liouville equation is…
An Abelian integral is the integral over the level curves of a Hamiltonian $H$ of an algebraic form $\omega$. The infinitesimal Hilbert sixteenth problem calls for the study of the number of zeros of Abelian integrals in terms of the…
Let $P(x)$ be a real polynomial of degree $2g+1$, $H=y^2+P(x)$ and $\delta(h)$ be an oval contained in the level set $\{H=h\}$. We study complete Abelian integrals of the form $$I(h)=\int_{\delta(h)} \frac{(\alpha_0+\alpha_1 x+... +…

We prove that the number of limit cycles generated by a small non-conservative perturbation of a Hamiltonian polynomial vector field on the plane, is bounded by a double exponential of the degree of the fields. This solves the long-standing…
