Abstract

Last decades, one of the most important problems of symbolic computations (see [7]) is the development of algorithms for solving algebraic and differential equations, in particular, those for factoring linear ordinary differential operators (LODO) [1–4]. In this paper, the problems of LODO factorization and decomposition of ordinary polynomials [5, 6] are generalized: an algorithm is proposed for decomposition of differential polynomials that allows one to find a particular solution to a complex algebraic differential equation (an example is provided in the end of the paper).
