We present a detailed and simplified version of Hrushovski's algorithm that determines the Galois group of a linear differential equation. There are three major ingredients in this algorithm. The first is to look for a degree bound for…

We extend and apply the Galois theory of linear differential equations equipped with the action of an endomorphism. The Galois groups in this Galois theory are difference algebraic groups and we use structure theorems for these groups to…

Galois theory is developed using elementary polynomial and group algebra. The method follows closely the original prescription of Galois, and has the benefit of making the theory accessible to a wide audience. The theory is illustrated by a…

The present paper essentially contains two results that generalize and improve some of the constructions of [arXiv:0801.1493]. First of all, in the case of one derivation, we prove that the parameterized Galois theory for difference…

Differential equations have arithmetic analogues in which derivatives are replaced by Fermat quotients; these analogues are called arithmetic differential equations and the present paper is concerned with the "linear" ones. The equations…

Consider a third order linear differential equation $L(f)=0$, where $L\in\mathbb{Q}(z)[\partial_z]$. We design an algorithm computing the Liouvillian solutions of $L(f)=0$. The reducible cases devolve to the classical case of second order…

If we consider a q-analogue of linear differential equation, Galoois group of the q-analogue difference equation is still a linear algebraic group. Namely, by a quantization of linear differential equation, Galois group is not quantized. We…

A fundamental theorem of Katz \cite{Katz87} determines the differential Galois groups of rank $n$ connections on algebraic curves with slope $r/n$ at a singularity, where $\gcd(r,n)=1$. We extend this result to $G$-connections, where $G$ is…
