Given a nilpotent singular point of a planar vector field, its monodromy is associated with its Andreev number $n$. The parity of $n$ determines whether the existence of an inverse integrating factor implies that the singular point is a…

In this paper we determine the centers of quasi-homogeneous polynomial planar vector fields of degree 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4. In addition, in every case we make a study of the reversibility and the analytical integrability of each one of the…

We give an algorithm for deciding whether a planar polynomial differential system has a first integral which factorizes as a product of defining polynomials of curves with only one place at infinity. In the affirmative case, our algorithm…

To approximate a simple root of an equation we construct families of iterative maps of higher order of convergence. These maps are based on model functions which can be written as an inner product. The main family of maps discussed is…

By definition, a first return is the immediate moment that a path, using vectors in the Cartesian plane, touches the $x$-axis after leaving it previously from a given point; the initial point is often the origin. In this case, using certain…

We classify, up to a natural equivalence relation, vector fields of the plane which belong to the kernel of a 1--form. This form can be closed, in which case the vector fields are integrable, or not, in which case the differential of the…

This paper is a continuation of our previous works where we study maps from $X_0(N)$, $N \ge 1$, into $\mathbb P^2$ constructed via modular forms of the same weight and criteria that such a map is birational (see [12]). In the present paper…

An element $g$ of a group is called reversible if it is conjugate in the group to its inverse. An element is an involution if it is equal to its inverse. This paper is about factoring elements as products of reversibles in the group…

In this article it is proved that an analytical planar vector field with a non-degenerate center at $(0,0)$ is analytically conjugate, in a neighborhood of $(0,0)$, to a Hamiltonian vector field of the form $y\frac{\partial}{\partial…

We give a bijective correspondence between the number of nilpotent matrices over a Boolean semiring and the number of directed acyclic graphs on ordered vertices. We then enumerate pairs of maps between two finite sets whose composites are…

Prelle and Singer showed in 1983 that if a system of ordinary differential equations defined on a differential field $K$ has a first integral in an elementrary field extension $L$ of $K$, then it must have a first integral consisting of…

Our starting point is Mumford's conjecture, on representations of Chevalley groups over fields, as it is phrased in the preface of "Geometric Invariant Theory". After extending the conjecture appropriately, we show that it holds over an…

In this work we study the centers of planar analytic vector fields which are limit of linear type centers. It is proved that all the nilpotent centers are limit of linear type centers and consequently the Poincar\'e--Liapunov method to find…

Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field that is complete with respect to a non-Archimedean absolute value, and let $\varphi\in K(z)$ have degree $d\geq 2$. We characterize maps for which the minimal resultant of an iterate $\varphi^n$ is…

A loop is automorphic if its inner mappings are automorphisms. Using so-called associated operations, we show that every commutative automorphic loop of odd prime power order is centrally nilpotent. Starting with anisotropic planes in the…

We consider non-singular and Jacobian maps whose components are polynomial in the variable y. We prove that if a map has y-degree one, then it is the composition of a triangular map and a quasi-triangular map. We also prove that…

We explore the convergence/divergence of the normal form for a singularity of a vector field on $\C^n$ with nilpotent linear part. We show that a Gevrey-$\alpha$ vector field $X$ with a nilpotent linear part can be reduced to a normal form…

Here we present an efficient method to compute Darboux polynomials for polynomial vector fields in the plane. This approach is restricetd to polynomial vector fields presenting a Liouvillian first integral (or, equivalently, to rational…

First and second fundamental theorems are given for polynomial invariants of a class of pseudo-reflection groups (including the Weyl groups of type $B_n$), under the assumption that the order of the group is invertible in the base field.…

The present paper is the first in a series of papers, in which we shall construct modular functors and Topological Quantum Field Theories from the conformal field theory developed in [TUY]. The basic idea is that the covariant constant…
