Differential Galois Theory and Non-Integrability of Hamiltonian Systems by Juan J. Morales Ruiz.

This book is devoted to the relation between two different concepts of integrability: the complete integrability of complex analytical Hamiltonian systems and the integrability of complex analytical linear differential equations. For linear differential equations, integrability is made precise withi...
