Abstract
This paper is the second part of our work on differential Galois theory as we promised in [U3]. Differential Galois theory has a long history since Lie tried to apply the idea of Abel and Galois to differential equations in the 19th century (cf. [U3], Introduction). When we consider Galois theory of differential equation, we have to separate the finite dimensional theory from the infinite dimensional theory. As Kolchin theory shows, the first is constructed on a rigorous foundation. The latter, however, seems inachieved despite of several important contributions of Drach, Vessiot,…. We propose in this paper a differential Galois theory of infinite dimension in a rigorous and transparent framework. We explain the idea of the classical authors by one of the simplest examples and point out the problems.
