On the algebraic invariant curves of plane polynomial differential systems
We consider a plane polynomial vector field of degree
. To each algebraic invariant curve of such a field we associate a compact
Riemann surface with the meromorphic differential . The
asymptotic estimate of the degree of an arbitrary algebraic invariant curve is
found. In the smooth case this estimate was already found by D. Cerveau and A.

Darboux Transformation of the Green Function for the Dirac Equation with the Generalized Potential
We consider the Darboux transformation of the Green functions of the regular
boundary problem of the one-dimensional stationary Dirac equation. We obtained
the Green functions of the transformed Dirac equation with the initial regular
boundary conditions. We also construct the formula for the unabridged trace of
the difference of the transformed and the initial Green functions of the
regular boundary problem of the one-dimensional stationary Dirac equation. We
illustrate our findings by the consideration of the Darboux transformation for
the Green function of the free particle Dirac equation on an interval.Comment: 14 pages,zip. file: Latex, 1 figure. Typos corrected, the figure

A new family of shape invariantly deformed Darboux-P\"oschl-Teller potentials with continuous \ell
We present a new family of shape invariant potentials which could be called a
``continuous \ell version" of the potentials corresponding to the exceptional
(X_{\ell}) J1 Jacobi polynomials constructed recently by the present authors.
In a certain limit, it reduces to a continuous \ell family of shape invariant
potentials related to the exceptional (X_{\ell}) L1 Laguerre polynomials. The
latter was known as one example of the `conditionally exactly solvable
potentials' on a half line.Comment: 19 pages. Sec.5(Summary and Comments): one sentence added in the

Higher-order Abel equations: Lagrangian formalism, first integrals and Darboux polynomials
A geometric approach is used to study a family of higher-order nonlinear Abel
equations. The inverse problem of the Lagrangian dynamics is studied in the
particular case of the second-order Abel equation and the existence of two
alternative Lagrangian formulations is proved, both Lagrangians being of a
non-natural class (neither potential nor kinetic term). These higher-order Abel
equations are studied by means of their Darboux polynomials and Jacobi
multipliers. In all the cases a family of constants of the motion is explicitly
obtained. The general n-dimensional case is also studied
On the action principle for a system of differential equations
We consider the problem of constructing an action functional for physical
systems whose classical equations of motion cannot be directly identified with
Euler-Lagrange equations for an action principle. Two ways of action principle
construction are presented. From simple consideration, we derive necessary and
sufficient conditions for the existence of a multiplier matrix which can endow
a prescribed set of second-order differential equations with the structure of
Euler-Lagrange equations. An explicit form of the action is constructed in case
if such a multiplier exists. If a given set of differential equations cannot be
derived from an action principle, one can reformulate such a set in an
equivalent first-order form which can always be treated as the Euler-Lagrange
equations of a certain action. We construct such an action explicitly. There
exists an ambiguity (not reduced to a total time derivative) in associating a
Lagrange function with a given set of equations. We present a complete
description of this ambiguity. The general procedure is illustrated by several
examples.Comment: 10 page
Connection between the Green functions of the supersymmetric pair of Dirac Hamiltonians
The Sukumar theorem about the connection between the Green functions of the
supersymmetric pair of the Schr\"odinger Hamiltonians is generalized to the
case of the supersymmetric pair of the Dirac Hamiltonians.Comment: 12 pages,Latex, no figure
Whittaker-Hill equation and semifinite-gap Schroedinger operators
A periodic one-dimensional Schroedinger operator is called semifinite-gap if
every second gap in its spectrum is eventually closed. We construct explicit
examples of semifinite-gap Schroedinger operators in trigonometric functions by
applying Darboux transformations to the Whittaker-Hill equation. We give a
criterion of the regularity of the corresponding potentials and investigate the
spectral properties of the new operators.Comment: Revised versio
Integrability and explicit solutions in some Bianchi cosmological dynamical systems
The Einstein field equations for several cosmological models reduce to
polynomial systems of ordinary differential equations. In this paper we shall
concentrate our attention to the spatially homogeneous diagonal G_2
cosmologies. By using Darboux's theory in order to study ordinary differential
equations in the complex projective plane CP^2 we solve the Bianchi V models
totally. Moreover, we carry out a study of Bianchi VI models and first
integrals are given in particular cases
Constructing solutions to the Bj\"orling problem for isothermic surfaces by structure preserving discretization
In this article, we study an analog of the Bj\"orling problem for isothermic
surfaces (that are more general than minimal surfaces): given a real analytic
curve in , and two analytic non-vanishing orthogonal
vector fields and along , find an isothermic surface that is
tangent to and that has and as principal directions of
curvature. We prove that solutions to that problem can be obtained by
constructing a family of discrete isothermic surfaces (in the sense of Bobenko
and Pinkall) from data that is sampled along , and passing to the limit
of vanishing mesh size. The proof relies on a rephrasing of the
Gauss-Codazzi-system as analytic Cauchy problem and an in-depth-analysis of its
discretization which is induced from the geometry of discrete isothermic
surfaces. The discrete-to-continuous limit is carried out for the Christoffel
and the Darboux transformations as well.Comment: 29 pages, some figure
Generalized isothermic lattices
We study multidimensional quadrilateral lattices satisfying simultaneously
two integrable constraints: a quadratic constraint and the projective Moutard
constraint. When the lattice is two dimensional and the quadric under
consideration is the Moebius sphere one obtains, after the stereographic
projection, the discrete isothermic surfaces defined by Bobenko and Pinkall by
an algebraic constraint imposed on the (complex) cross-ratio of the circular
lattice. We derive the analogous condition for our generalized isthermic
lattices using Steiner's projective structure of conics and we present basic
geometric constructions which encode integrability of the lattice. In
particular, we introduce the Darboux transformation of the generalized
isothermic lattice and we derive the corresponding Bianchi permutability
principle. Finally, we study two dimensional generalized isothermic lattices,
in particular geometry of their initial boundary value problem.Comment: 19 pages, 11 figures; v2. some typos corrected; v3. new references
