In mathematics, differential rings, differential fields and differential algebras are rings, fields and algebras equipped with a finite set of derivations. Differential algebra includes the study of these algebraic objects and their use in the algebraic study of differential equations.[1][2][3] This approach provides an improved understanding in many areas of mathematics including algebraic geometry, differential equations and symbolic integration.[4][5][6] Direct applications have occurred in many areas including chemical engineering, computational biolology, control theory and theoretical physics.[7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]
History
editJoseph Ritt developed differential algebra because he viewed attempts to reduce systems of differential equations to various canonical forms as an unsatisfactory approach. However, the success of algebraic elimination methods and algebraic manifold theory motivated Ritt to consider a similar approach for differential equations.[15]: iii–iv His efforts led to an initial paper Manifolds Of Functions Defined By Systems Of Algebraic Differential Equations and 2 books, Differential Equations From The Algebraic Standpoint and Differential Algebra.[16][15][2] Ellis Kolchin, Ritt's student, advanced this field and published Differential Algebra And Algebraic Groups.[1]
Definitions
editDifferential ring
editA derivation on a ring is a linear unary operator and an additive group homomorphism that follows an addition rule and Leibniz product rule, :[1]: 58–59
A differential ring is a commutative ring with a multiplicative identity of 1 (unital ring) and a finite set of commutative derivations that map ring elements to ring elements, . An ordinary differential ring's derivation set contains one derivation; a partial differential ring's derivation set contains multiple derivations. Abbreviated notations are or for partial differential rings and or for ordinary differential rings. The constants set contains ring elements that every derivation maps to zero.[1]: 58–60
Derivation formulas
editSome derivations formulas apply to a differential field or a differential integral domain.[6]: 76
- Units of
The last formula is the logarithmic derivative identity.
Derivative operator
editThe derivative operator is a sequence of composed derivations, each derivation occurring one or multiple times. An integer superscript indicates the number of derivations for partial differential rings, and superscript primes indicate the number of derivations for ordinary differential rings. Proper derivatives contains at least one derivation. Derivative operators form a free commutative semigroup generated by the derivation set. The multi-index, an integer tuple, identifies the number of derivations from each derivation operator. The order of the derivative operator is the total number of derivations. A derivative is the application of a derivative operator to a set element.[1]: 58–59

The intersection of any family of differential subrings is a differential subring. The intersection of any set of differential subrings containing a common set is a differential subring, and the smallest differential subring containing a common set is the intersection of all subrings containing the common set.[1]: 58–59
Set generates differential ring over . This is the smallest differential subring containing differential subring and set . A finitely generated differential subring arises from a finite set, and a simply generated differential subring arises from a single element. Adjoining or adding an element to the generator set extends the differential ring. Using the square bracket notation for ring extension, .[1]: 58–60
Set generates differential field over field . Using the parentheses notation for a field extension, .[1]: 60
A field is a closed differential field if each instance when a differential equation set's solution, for , occurs in field extended over , the solution occurs in the field .[10]: 54 Any differential field may extend to a closed differential field.[10]: 54 Differential Galois theory studies differential field extensions and the associated Galois group.[17]: 141
Ideals
editA differential ideal of is an ideal closed (stable) under the ring's derivation set . A differential proper ideal is a proper subset of the differential ring. The intersection, sum, and finite product of any family of differential ideals is a differential ideal.[1]: 61–62 A radical differential ideal or perfect differential ideal is an ideal equal to its radical: .[9]: 3–4
The smallest ideal generated from ring by a set includes:[1]: 61–62 [4]: 21

- The ring is an extension of , and is a subring of if the ring homomorphism is an inclusion.[4]: 21
- For differential ring and differential ideal , the canonical homomorphism maps the ring to the differential residue ring: .
Modules

A differential vector space is a differential module over a differential field.
A differential or differential algebra over the is the ring , the , and a derivation set that makes a differential ring and that follows this derivation product rule:[1]: 69 [18]: 342
- .
Polynomials
editThe derivatives of the set of differential indeterminates generate the differential polynomial ring over the ground field . Unless otherwise noted, polynomial statements assume a characteristic zero.[9]: 5–7 [1]: 69–70
The standard derivation for ring is
An algebraically independent differential field is a differential field with a non-vanishing Wronskian determinant.[6]: 79
Special and normal polynomials have distinct greatest common divisors (gcd) for the polynomial and its derivative. All irreducible polynomials are special or normal with respect to a derivation; special polynomials may generate a differential ideal while normal polynomials are squarefree. The definitions are:[6]: 92–93
- Normal polynomial : .
- Special polynomial : .
A Ritt Algebra is a differential ring containing the field of rational numbers.[3]: 12
The Ritt-Raudenbush basis theorem states that if is a Ritt Algebra satisfying the ascending chain condition on radical differential ideals, then the differential ring arising from adjoining a finite number of differential indeterminants, , will satisfy the ascending chain condition on radical differential ideals. Implications are:[3]: 45, 48 : 56–57 [1]: 126–129
- A radical differential ideal is the radical of a finitely generated ideal.[10]
- A radical differential ideal is an intersection of a finite set of distinct unique prime ideals called essential prime components.[5]: 8
Elimination methods
editElimination methods are algorithms that preferentially eliminate a specified set of derivatives from a set of differential equations, commonly done to better understand and solve sets of differential equations.
Categories of elimination methods include characteristic set methods, differential Gröbner bases methods and resultant based methods.[1][19][20][21][22][23][24]
Common operations used in elimination algorithms include 1) ranking derivatives, polynomials, and polynomial sets, 2) identifying a polynomial's leading derivative, initial and separant, 3) polynomial reduction, and 4) creating special polynomial sets.
Ranking derivatives
editThe ranking of derivatives is a total order and an admisible order, defined as:[1]: 75–76 [7]: 1141 [5]: 10
- .
- .
Each derivative has an integer tuple, and a monomial order ranks the derivative by ranking the derivative's integer tuple. The integer tuple identifies the differential indeterminate, the derivative's multi-index and may identify the derivative's order. Types of ranking include:[25]: 83
- Orderly ranking:
- Elimination ranking:
In this example, the integer tuple identifies the differential indeterminate and derivative's multi-index, and lexicographic monomial order, , determines the derivative's rank.[8]: 4
- .
- .
Leading derivative, initial and separant
editThis is the standard polynomial form: .[1]: 75–76 [8]: 4
- Leader or leading derivative is the polynomial's highest ranked derivative: .
- Coefficients do not contain the leading derivative .
- Degree of polynomial is the leading derivative's greatest exponent: .
- Initial is the coefficient: .
- Rank is the leading derivative raised to the polynomial's degree: .
- Separant is the derivative: .
Separant set is , initial set is and combined set is .[20]: 159
Reduction
editPartially reduced (partial normal form) polynomial with respect to polynomial indicates these polynomials are non-ground field elements, , and contains no proper derivative of .[1]: 75 [25]: 84 [20]: 159
Partially reduced polynomial with respect to polynomial becomes reduced (normal form) polynomial with respect to if the degree of in is less than the degree of in .[1]: 75 [25]: 84 [20]: 159
An autoreduced polynomial set has every polynomial reduced with respect to every other polynomial of the set. Every autoreduced set is finite. An autoreduced set is triangular meaning each polynomial element has a distinct leading derivative.[9]: 6 [1]: 75
Ritt’s reduction algorithm identifies integers and transforms a differential polynomial using pseudodivision to a lower or equally ranked remainder polynomial that is reduced with respect to the autoreduced polynomial set . The algorithm's first step partially reduces the input polynomial and the algorithm's second step fully reduces the polynomial. The formula for reduction is:[1]: 75
- .
Ranking polynomial sets
editSet is a differential chain if the rank of the leading derivatives is and is reduced with respect to [19]: 294
Autoreduced sets and each contain ranked polynomial elements. This procedure ranks two autoreduced sets by comparing pairs of identically indexed polynomials from both autoreduced sets.[1]: 81
- and and .
- if there is a such that for and .
- if and for .
- if and for .
Polynomial sets
editA characteristic set is the lowest ranked autoreduced subset among all the ideal's autoreduced subsets whose subset polynomial separants are non-members of the ideal .[1]: 82
The delta polynomial applies to polynomial pair whose leaders share a common derivative, . The least common derivative operator for the polynomial pair's leading derivatives is , and the delta polynomial is:[1]: 136 [20]: 160
A coherent set is a polynomial set that reduces its delta polynomial pairs to zero.[1]: 136 [20]: 160
Regular system and regular ideal
editA regular system contains a autoreduced and coherent set of differential equations and a inequation set with set reduced with respect to the equation set.[20]: 160
Regular differential ideal and regular algebraic ideal are saturation ideals that arise from a regular system.[20]: 160 Lazard's lemma states that the regular differential and regular algebraic ideals are radical ideals.[26]
- Regular differential ideal: .
- Regular algebraic ideal: .
Rosenfeld–Gröbner algorithm
editThe Rosenfeld–Gröbner algorithm decomposes the radical differential ideal as a finite intersection of regular radical differential ideals. These regular differential radical ideals, represented by characteristic sets, are not necessarily prime ideals and the representation is not necessarily minimal.[20]: 158
The membership problem is to determine if a differential polynomial is a member of an ideal generated from a set of differential polynomials . The Rosenfeld–Gröbner algorithm generates sets of Gröbner bases. The algorithm determines that a polynomial is a member of the ideal if and only if the partially reduced remainder polynomial is a member of the algebraic ideal generated by the Gröbner bases.[20]: 164
The Rosenfeld–Gröbner algorithm facilitates creating Taylor series expansions of solutions to the differential equations.[27]

Algebra over a differential ring
editAny ring with identity is a algebra.[18]: 343 Thus a differential ring is a algebra.
If ring is a subring of the center of unital ring , then is an algebra.[18]: 343 Thus, a differential ring is an algebra over its differential subring. This is the natural structure of an algebra over its subring.[1]: 75
Special and normal polynomials
editRing has irreducible polynomials, (normal, squarefree) and (special, ideal generator).
Polynomials

Autoreduced sets
edit- Autoreduced sets are and . Each set is triangular with a distinct polynomial leading derivative.
- The non-autoreduced set contains only partially reduced with respect to ; this set is non-triangular because the polynomials have the same leading derivative.
Applications
editSymbolic integration
editSymbolic integration uses algorithms involving polynomials and their derivatives such as Hermite reduction, Czichowski algorithm, Lazard-Rioboo-Trager algorithm, Horowitz-Ostrogradsky algorithm, squarefree factorization and splitting factorization to special and normal polynomials.[6]: 41, 51, 53, 102, 299, 309
Differential equations
editDifferential algebra can determine if a set of differential polynomial equations has a solution. A total order ranking may identify algebraic constraints. An elimination ranking may determine if one or a selected group of independent variables can express the differential equations. Using triangular decomposition and elimination order, it may be possible to solve the differential equations one differential indeterminate at a time in a step-wise method. Another approach is to create a class of differential equations with a known solution form; matching a differential equation to its class identifies the equation's solution. Methods are available to facilitate the numerical integration of a differential-algebraic system of equations.[5]: 41–47
In a study of non-linear dynamical systems with chaos, researchers used differential elimination to reduce differential equations to ordinary differential equations involving a single state variable. They were successful in most cases, and this facilitated developing approximate solutions, efficiently evaluating chaos, and constructing Lypapunov functions.[11]. Researchers have applied differential elimination to understanding cellular biology, compartmental biochemical models, parameter estimation and quasi-steady state approximation (QSSA) for biochemical reactions.[29][30] Using differential Gröbner bases, researchers have investigated non-classical symmetry properties of non-linear differential equations.[31] Other applications include control theory, model theory, and algebraic geometry.[13][10][4] Differential algebra also applies to differential-difference equations.[7]
Algebras with derivations

The universal enveloping algebra of Lie algebra is a maximal associative algebra with identity, generated by Lie algebra elements and containing products defined by the bracket operation. Maximal means that a linear homomorphism maps the universal algebra to any other algebra that otherwise has these properties. The adjoint operator is a derivation following the Leibniz product rule.[33]: 247
- Product in :

A Weyl algebra can represent the derivations for a commutative ring's polynomials . The Weyl algebra's elements are endomorphisms, the elements function as standard derivations, and map compositions generate linear differential operators. D-module is a related approach for understanding differential operators. The endomorphisms are:[35]: 7–8
A derivative operator and a linear differential operator are:[36]: 7

Challenging problems
editThe Ritt problem asks is there an algorithm that determines if one prime differential ideal contains a second prime differential ideal when characteristic sets identify both ideals.[37]
The Kolchin catenary conjecture states given a dimensional irreducible differential algebraic variety and an arbitrary point , a long gap chain of irreducible differential algebraic subvarieties occurs from to V.[38]
The Jacobi bound conjecture concerns the upper bound for the order of an differential variety's irreducible component. The polynomial's orders determine a Jacobi number, and the conjecture is the Jacobi number determines this bound.[39]
