We prove that if T is a theory of large, bounded, fields of characteristic zero, with almost quantifier elimination, and T_D is the model companion of T + "D is a derivation", then for any model U of T_D, and differential subfield K of U…
We give model theoretic accounts and proofs of the existence and uniqueness of differential Galois extensions with no new constants, for logarithmic differential equations over a differential field K, when the field C of constants of K is…
In this paper we study elementary extensions of differential fields in prime characteristic. In particular, we show that, in contrast to Liouville's result in characteristic zero, all elements of an elementary extension admit an…
Let $k$ be a differential field of characteristic zero and $E$ be a liouvillian extension of $k$. For any differential subfield $K$ intermediate to $E$ and $k$, we prove that there is an element in the set $K-k$ satisfying a linear…
The paper investigates the converse to the following theorem. Let R be a differential domain R which is finitely generated over a differential field F whose field of constants is algebraically closed of characteristic 0. If R has no proper…
For a differential field $F$ having an algebraically closed field of constants, we analyze the structure of Picard-Vessiot extensions of $F$ whose differential Galois groups are unipotent algebraic groups and apply these results to study…
Let k be an algebraically closed field, let R be an associative k-algebra, and let F = {M_a: a in I} be a family of orthogonal points in R-Mod such that End_R(M_a) = k for all a in I. Then Mod(F), the minimal full sub-category of R-Mod…
We consider the problem of solvability of linear differential equations over a differential field~$K$. We introduce a class of special differential field extensions, which widely generalizes the classical class of extensions of differential…
This paper extends the classical Ostrogradsky-Hermite reduction for rational functions to more general functions in primitive extensions of certain types. For an element $f$ in such an extension $K$, the extended reduction decomposes $f$ as…
The main result of this paper is that if E is a field extension of finite odd degree over a real field Q, and if E is a repeated radical extension of Q, then every intermediate field is also a repeated radical extension of Q. This paper…
We extend the theorem of Liouville on integration in finite terms to include dilogarithmic integrals. The results provide a necessary and sufficient condition for an element of the base field to have an antiderivative in a field extension…
A finite separable extension $E$ of a field $F$ is called primitive if there are no intermediate extensions. It is called solvable if the group $\mathrm{Gal}(\hat E|F)$ of automorphisms of its galoisian closure $\hat E$ over $F$ is…
As shown in a previous paper, whenever a rational vector field on $\mathbb C^n$, $n>2$, is Liouvillian integrable, then it admits a first integral obtained by two successive integrations from a one-form with coefficients in a finite…
We prove that an iterative derivation $\delta_F$ on a field $F$ can be extended to an iterative derivation $\delta_A$ on a central simple $F-$algebra $A$ if the characteristic of $F$ does not divide the exponent of $A$ in the Brauer group…
Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, $\delta$ a nonzero $\mathcal{E}$-derivation of $K[x]$. We first prove that $\operatorname{Im}\delta$ is a Mathieu-Zhao space of $K[x]$ in some cases. Then we prove that LFED…

In this paper we associate an invariant to a biquaternion algebra $B$ over a field $K$ with a subfield $F$ such that $K/F$ is a quadratic separable extension and $\operatorname{char}(F)=2$. We show that this invariant is trivial exactly…
In this paper we strengthen Kolchin's theorem ([1]) in the ordinary case. It states that if a differential field $E$ is finitely generated over a differential subfield $F \subset E$, $trdeg_F E < \infty$, and $F$ contains a nonconstant,…
