Idempotents in Rings of Differential Operators

Here's a cute partial result, classifying idempotents of order 1. Let $\delta$ be an idempotent differential operator of order 1. Then there is a unique decomposition $R\simeq A\oplus M$, with $A$ a …

Idempotents in Rings of Differential Operators

Differential Operators on General Commutative Rings Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and let R be a commutative k-algebra. Then a (Grothendieck) differential operator on …

Does the image of a differential operator always contain an ideal?

Let $\delta$ denote a non-zero complex algebraic differential operator in a single variable x. That is, it can be written as a sum $$ \delta = \sum_i f_i\partial_x^i$$ where there $f_i$ are complex p …
