Locally nilpotent derivations and their rings of constants.

Given a UFD R containing Q , we study R-elementary derivations of B = R[Y1,..., Ym], i.e., R-derivations satisfying D( Yi) ∈ R for all i; in the particular case of m = 3, we will show that if R is a polynomial ring in n variables over a field k (of characteristic zero), and a1, a3, a3...
