We prove that every trajectory of a polynomial vector field on the complex projective plane accumulates to the singular locus of the vector field. This statement represents a holomorphic version of the Poincare-Bendixson theorem and solves…

Starting from a Pfaffian equation in dimension $N$ and focusing on compact solutions for it, we place in perspective the variational method used in [29] to solve Hilbert's 16th problem. In addition to exploring how this viewpoint can help…

It is proved that for any finite dimensional representation of a prime order group over the field of rational numbers, polynomial invariants of degree at most $3$ separate the orbits. A result providing an upper degree bound for separating…

We study the maximum number of crossing limit cycles in piecewise-smooth vector fields on the two-dimensional torus, where the discontinuity set is the boundary of the fundamental square. Under the assumption of a polynomial first integral…

The Riemann-Hilbert boundary value problem is studied for a class of planar complex vector fields $L$ in a simply connected open set $\Om\subset\R^2$. The first integrals of $L$ are used to reduce the problem into a collection of classical…

We extend the Eruguin result exposed in the paper "Construction of the whole set of ordinary differential equations with a given integral curve" published in 1952 and construct a differential system in $\Bbb{R}^N$ which admits a given set…

We study the maximal number of pairwise distinct columns in a $\Delta$-modular integer matrix with $m$ rows. Recent results by Lee et al. provide an asymptotically tight upper bound of $O(m^2)$ for fixed $\Delta$. We complement this and…

We study algebraic integrability of complex planar polynomial vector fields $X=A (x,y)(\partial/\partial x) + B(x,y) (\partial/\partial y) $ through extensions to Hirzebruch surfaces. Using these extensions, each vector field $X$ determines…

Recall that the Hilbert (Riemann-Hilbert) boundary value problem for the Beltrami equations was recently solved for general settings in terms of nontangential limits and principal asymptotic values. Here it is developed a new approach…

We consider a plane polynomial vector field $P(x,y)dx+Q(x,y)dy$ of degree $m>1$. To each algebraic invariant curve of such a field we associate a compact Riemann surface with the meromorphic differential $\omega=dx/P=dy/Q$. The asymptotic…

We study the number and distribution of the limit cycles of a planar vector field whose component functions are random polynomials. We prove a lower bound on the average number of limit cycles when the random polynomials are sampled from…

In this paper, we prove a generalization of Green's Hyperplane Restriction Theorem to the case of modules over the polynomial ring, providing in particular an upper bound for the Hilbert function of the general linear restriction of a…

Clemm and Trebat-Leder (2014) proved that the number of quadratic number fields with absolute discriminant bounded by $x$ over which there exist elliptic curves with good reduction everywhere and rational $j$-invariant is $\gg…

In the 1960s, Erd\H{o}s and his cooperators initiated the research of the maximum numbers of edges in a graph or a planar graph on $n$ vertices without $k$ edge-disjoint cycles. This problem had been solved for $k\leq4$. As pointed out by…

The first part of Hilbert's sixteenth problem deals with the classification of the isotopy types realizable by real plane algebraic curves of given degree $m$. For $m \geq 8$, one restricts the study to the case of the $M$-curves. For…

It is studied the Hilbert boundary value problem for the nondegenerate Beltrami equations in domains $D$ of the complex plane $\mathbb C$ with the so--called quasihyperbolic boundary condition. It is proved the existence of solutions of…

The square peg problem asks whether every continuous curve in the plane that starts and ends at the same point without self-intersecting contains four distinct corners of some square. Toeplitz conjectured in 1911 that this is indeed the…

Arithmetic circuits are a natural well-studied model for computing multivariate polynomials over a field. In this paper, we study planar arithmetic circuits. These are circuits whose underlying graph is planar. In particular, we prove an…

In this article we prove in a new way that a generic polynomial vector field in $\mathbb C^2$ possesses countably many homologically independent limit cycles. The new proof needs no estimates on integrals, provides thinner exceptional set…
