Order one differential equations on nonisotrivial algebraic curves

Abstract

In this paper we provide new examples of geometrically trivial strongly minimal differential algebraic varieties living on nonisotrivial curves over differentially closed fields of characteristic zero. These are systems whose solutions only have binary algebraic relations between them. Our technique involves developing a theory of $\tau$-forms, and building connections to deformation theory. This builds on previous work of Buium and Rosen. In our development, we answer several open questions posed by Rosen and Hrushovski-Itai.
