Fredholm index vs. Limit cycle theory
Let $A$ be the algebra of all smooth functions $f: \mathbb{R}^2 \to \mathbb{R}$ such that $f$ is flat at the origin and is real analytic on $\mathbb{R}^2 \setminus \{0\}$.
Let $B $ be ...

A fourth-order linear PDE
I am interested in the following type of $4$-th order linear PDE with $2$ variables (i.e., $x$ and $t$):
$$x^3 f_{xxxt}+ f =0$$
Does anyone know if this type of PDE already appeared in the literature? ...
