We study the monodromy of the following third order linear differential equation \[y'''(z)-(\alpha\wp(z;\tau)+B)y'(z)+\beta\wp'(z;\tau)y(z)=0, \] where $B\in\mathbb{C}$ is a parameter, $\wp(z;\tau)$ is the Weierstrass $\wp$-function with…
In this paper, the second in a series, we continue to study the generalized Lam\'{e} equation with the Treibich-Verdier potential \begin{equation*} y^{\prime \prime }(z)=\bigg[ \sum_{k=0}^{3}n_{k}(n_{k}+1)\wp(z+\tfrac{…
A minor error in the necessary conditions for the algebraic form of the Lam\'e equation to have a finite projective monodromy group, and hence for it to have only algebraic solutions, is pointed out. [See F. Baldassarri, "On algebraic…

We give a complete characterization of the classical Lam\'e equations $y'' = (n(n + 1)\wp(z) + B)y$, $n \in \Bbb R$, $B \in \Bbb C$ on flat tori $E_\tau = \Bbb C/(\Bbb Z + \Bbb Z\,\tau)$ with finite monodromy groups $M$. Beuker--Waall had…
We consider monodromy groups of the generalized hypergeometric equation \begin{equation*} \big[z(\theta+\alpha_{1})\cdots (\theta+\alpha_{n})-(\theta+\beta_{1}-1)\cdots (\theta+\beta_{n}-1)\big]f(z) = 0\text{, where }\theta = z d/dz,…
We explain how algebraic geometry comes into play in the study of non-linear mean field (singular Liouville) equations $$ \triangle u + e^u = 4\pi \sum_{i = 1}^N \ell_i \delta_{p_i} $$ on a flat torus $E = \Bbb C/\Lambda$, where $N, \ell_1,…
We obtain an explicit formula for the number of Lam\'e equations (modulo scalar equivalence) with index $n$ and projective monodromy group of order $2N$, for given $n \in \Z$ and $N \in \N$. This is done by performing the combinatorics of…
We provide a new foundational approach to the generalization of terms up to equational theories. We interpret generalization problems in a universal-algebraic setting making a key use of projective and exact algebras in the variety…
We use hypergeometric sheaves on $G_m/F_q$, which are particular sorts of rigid local systems, to construct explicit local systems whose arithmetic and geometric monodromy groups are the finite general linear groups $GL_n(q)$ for any $n \ge…
We prove that the monodromy group of a reduced irreducible square system of general polynomial equations equals the symmetric group. This is a natural first step towards the Galois theory of general systems of polynomial equations, because…
We discuss the history of the monodromy theorem, starting from Weierstra\ss, and the concept of monodromy group. From this viewpoint we compare then the Weierstra\ss , the Legendre and other normal forms for elliptic curves, explaining…
The symmetry group method is applied to a generalized Korteweg-de Vries equation and several classes of group invarint solution for it are obtained by means of this technique. Polynomial, trigonometric and elliptic function solutions can be…

We show that there exists a Lame operator $L_n$ with projective octahedral monodromy for each $n\in{1/2}(\mathbf{N}+{1/2})\cup{1/3}(\mathbf{N}+{1/2}) $, and with projective icosahedral monodromy for each…
We consider Galois/monodromy groups arising in computer vision applications, with a view towards building more efficient polynomial solvers. The Galois/monodromy group allows us to decide when a given problem decomposes into algebraic…
In this note, we compute the explicit formula of the monodromy data for a generalized Lam\'{e} equation when its monodromy is reducible but not completely reducible. We also solve the corresponding Riemman-Hilbert problem.
Hypergeometric equations with a dihedral monodromy group can be solved in terms of elementary functions. This paper gives explicit general expressions for quadratic monodromy invariants for these hypergeometric equations, using a…
