We identify many new solvable subcases of the general dynamical system characterized by two autonomous first-order ordinary differential equations with purely quadratic right-hand sides; the solvable character of these dynamical systems…
In this work we consider a given root of a family of n-degree polynomials as a one-variable function that depends only on the independent term. Then we prove that this function satisfies several ordinary differential equations (ODE). More…
