Is $x \in A_1$ left algebraic over the subalgebra generated by $p$ and $q$, $[q,p]=1$?
Let $A_1:=A_1(x,y,k)$ be the first Weyl algebra over a field $k$ of characteristic zero,
namely, the $k$-algebra generated by $x$ and $y$ with relation $yx-xy=1$.
Let $f:(x,y) \mapsto (p,q)$ be a $k$-...

Invertibility under base change for the Weyl algebra instead of for the polynomial algebra
From Lemma 1.1.8, we obtain the following:
Assume that $R \subseteq S$ are commutative rings
and
$u: R[x,y] \to R[x,y]$ is an $R$-algebra endomorphism
that has an invertible Jacobian, namely,
$Jac(u(x)...
