TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered a general class of fields of characteristic 0.1, where the underlying field of an ordinary differential field 53 will be denoted by F. All fields considered in this paper are of characteristic 1.
Abstract: 1. All fields considered here are of characteristic 0. Let F be a field, let C be an algebraically closed subfield of F. Let G be a connected algebraic group defined over C. F(G) denotes the field of all rational functions on G defined over F. If gCG then F(g) denotes the field generated by g over F. We shall say that a derivation of F(G) commutes with G*(C) if it commutes with g*, for every gEG(C), where g* denotes the automorphism of F(G) induced by the left translation by g, i.e., (g*f)(x) =f(gx), for any xCG. F denotes the Lie algebra of all derivations of F(G) that are zero on F and which commute with G*(F). If G1 is a normal subgroup of G defined over F then F(G/G1) is canonically isomorphic to a subfield of F(G); we shall identify F(G/G1) and this subfield. If R is an integral domain then (R) denotes the field of fractions of R. Every derivation d of R can be uniquely extended to a derivation of R (the extended derivation will be also denoted by d). If F1, F2 are two fields containing F as a subfield and if d1, d2 are derivations of F1, F2, respectively, such that d1i F= d2 I F and d1(F) C F then d1i d2 denotes the derivation of F1,0F F2 determined by (d1 d2)(a 0 b) -d1(a)Gb+a0d2(b), for every aGF1 and bCF2. do denotes the zero derivation of a field (it will be always clear what field we have in mind). The underlying field of an ordinary differential field 53 will be denoted by F.
