In this note we construct a class of counterexamples to the "composition conjecture" concerning an infinitesimal version of the center problem for the polynomial Abel equation in the complex domain.
Abel equations of the form $x'(t)=f(t)x^3(t)+g(t)x^2(t)$, $t \in [-a,a]$, where $a>0$ is a constant, $f$ and $g$ are continuous functions, are of interest because of their close relation to planar vector fields. If $f$ and $g$ are odd…
The Abel differential equation $y'=p(x)y^3 + q(x) y^2$ with polynomial coefficients $p,q$ is said to have a center on $[a,b]$ if all its solutions, with the initial value $y(a)$ small enough, satisfy the condition $y(a)=y(b)$. The problem…
In this paper, I have proved that for a class of polynomial differential systems of degree n+1 ( where n is an arbitrary positive integer) the composition conjecture is true. I give the sufficient and necessary conditions for these…

Poincare's center problem asks for conditions under which a planar polynomial system of ordinary differential equations has a center. It is well understood that the Abel equation naturally describes the problem in a convenient coordinate…
We consider an Abel polynomial differential equation. For two given points a and b, the "Poincare mapping" of the equation transforms the values of its solution at a into their values at b. In this article, we study global analytic…

Classifications of irreducible components of the set of polynomial differential equations with a fixed degree and with at least one center singularity lead to some other new problems on Picard-Lefschetz theory and Brieskorn modules of…
The classical Center-Focus problem posed by H. Poincare in 1880's asks about the classification of planar polynomial vector fields such that all their integral trajectories are closed curves whose interiors contain a fixed point (which is…
The aim of this paper is to give a sufficient and necessary condition of the generalized polynomial Li\'enard system with a global center (including linear typer and nilpotent type). Recently, Llibre and Valls [J. Differential Equations,…
The space of polynomial differential equations of a fixed degree with a center singularity has many irreducible components. We prove that pull back differential equations form an irreducible component of such a space. The method used in…
We establish an equivalence between two forms of the composition condition for the Abel differential equation with trigonometric coefficients.
Some inverse problems for semi-infinite periodic generalized Jacobi matrices are considered. In particular, a generalization of the Abel criterion is presented. The approach is based on the fact that the solvability of the Pell-Abel…
We study first order differential operators with constant coefficients. The main question is under what conditions a generalized Poincar\'e inequality holds. We show that the constant rank condition is sufficient. The concept of the…
We present a new approach to solving polynomial ordinary differential equations by transforming them to linear functional equations and then solving the linear functional equations. We will focus most of our attention upon the first-order…

A center of a differential system in the plane $\mathbb{R}^2$ is an equilibrium point $p$ having a neighborhood $U$ such that $U\setminus \{p\}$ is filled of periodic orbits. A center $p$ is global when $\mathbb{R}^2\setminus \{p\}$ is…
We set out the general theory of ``Beck modules'' in a variety of algebras and describe them as modules over suitable ``universal enveloping'' unital associative algebras. We develop a theory of ``noncommutative partial differentiation'' to…
A difficult classical problem in the qualitative theory of differential systems in the plane $\mathbb{R}^2$ is the center-focus problem, i.e. to distinguish between a focus and a center. Another difficult problem is to distinguish inside a…
