Deciding whether or not two polynomials have isomoprhic splitting fields over the rationals is the Field Isomorphism Problem. We consider polynomials of the form $f_n(x) = x^4-nx^3-6x^2+nx+1$ with $n \neq 3$ a positive integer and we let…
We prove that if a homogeneous, continuously differentiable vector field is asymptotically stable, then it admits a Lyapunov function which is the ratio of two polynomials (i.e., a rational function). We further show that when the vector…
We investigate the symmetry component of the center variety of polynomial differential systems, corresponding to systems with an axis of symmetry in the real plane. We give a general algorithm to find this irreducible subvariety and compute…
We show that an idempotent lies in the center if it commutes with the other idempotents in the ring. Next, we introduce a partition of the set of idempotents and show that the automorphisms of the ring act transitively on each equivalence…
In this paper, plane polynomial systems having a singular point attracting all orbits in positive time are classified up to topological equivalence. This is done by assigning a combinatorial invariant to the system (a so-called "feasible…
In a previous work, both the constants of motion of a classical system and the symmetries of the corresponding quantum version have been computed with the help of factorizations. As their expressions were not polynomial, in this paper the…
We provide an extension of the method of asymptotic decompositions of vector fields with finite-time singularities by applying the central extension technique of Poincar\'e to the dominant part of the vector field on approach to the…
Polynomials commute under composition are referred to as commuting polynomials. In this paper, we study division properties for commuting polynomials with rational (and integer) coefficients. As a consequence, we show an algebraic…
The interplay among the time-evolution of the coefficients and the zeros of a generic time-dependent (monic) polynomial provides a convenient tool to identify certain classes of solvable dynamical systems. Recently this tool has been…
We study the existence of centers of planar autonomous system of the form $$(S) \quad \dot x=y,\qquad \dot y = -h(x) - g(x)y - f(x)y^2.$$ We are interested in the period function $T$ around a center 0. A sufficient condition for the…
In this paper we study the transformations linearizing isochronous centers of planar Hamiltonian differential systems with polynomial Hamiltonian functions $H(x,y)$ having only isolated singularities. Assuming the origin is an isochronous…
We review the fundamentals of coupling constant metamorphosis (CCM) and the St\"ackel transform, and apply them to map integrable and superintegrable systems of all orders into other such systems on different manifolds. In general, CCM does…
In this paper we deal with analytic nonautonomous vector fields with a periodic time-dependancy, that we study near an equilibrium point. In a first part, we assume that the linearized system is split in two invariant subspaces E0 and E1.…
We present an example of two isotopic but not strongly isotopic commutative semifields. This example shows that a recent result of Coulter and Henderson on semifield of order p^n, n odd, can not be generalized to the case n even.
We show that a set with an action of a locally finite-dimensional free partially commutative monoid and the corresponding semicubical set have isomorpic homology groups. We build a complex of finite length for the computing homology groups…
One-dimensional isoperiodic classical systems have been first analyzed by Abel. Abel's characterization can be extended for singular potentials and potentials which are not defined on the whole real line. The standard shear equivalence of…
Axisymmetric spacetimes with a conformal symmetry are studied and it is shown that, if there is no further conformal symmetry, the axial Killing vector and the conformal Killing vector must commute. As a direct consequence, in conformally…
We classify all topological phase portraits of the polynomial generalized Li\'enard system, determined by three arbitrary polynomials, at the origin and the infinity. This yields a complete characterization of monodromy at the origin and…
First and second fundamental theorems are given for polynomial invariants of a class of pseudo-reflection groups (including the Weyl groups of type $B_n$), under the assumption that the order of the group is invertible in the base field.…
This is a complete study of the dynamics of polynomial planar vector fields whose linear part is a multiple of the identity and whose nonlinear part is a contracting homogeneous polynomial. The contracting nonlinearity provides the…
