Darboux integral for non-polynomial ODEs
Given a polynomial ODE in $n$-dimensions of maximal degree $d$
$$
\dot{x}_j=f_j(x)=\sum_{i_1,\dots,i_n=1}^d a_{i_1,\dots,i_n}^j x_1^{i_1}\dots x_n^{i_n} \quad \forall j=1,\ldots,n
$$
we define ...

A question on essentially self-adjoint differential operators of the type $\Delta=D^{\ast}D$
Let $(M,g)$ be a smooth (connected, complete, oriented) Riemannian manifold and let $D:C^{\infty}(M)\to C^{\infty}(M)$ be a linear partial differential operator, which I view as an operator in $L^{2}(...

Differential equations: trying to connect a nonlinear equation to a linear one
The following is motivated by taking a product space $\Omega$ and splitting it into two parts via projections, whose subspaces, $T$ and $X$, are home to functions which satisfy a nonlinear PDE and a ...
