| contents | The correspondence between commutative rings of ordinary differential operators and algebraic curves has been extensively and deeply studied since the seminal works of Burchnall-Chaundy in 1923. This paper is an overview of recent developments to make this correspondence computationally effective, by means of differential algebra and symbolic computation.
The centralizer of an ordinary differential operator $L$ is a maximal commutative ring, the affine ring of a spectral curve $Γ$. The defining ideal of $Γ$ is described, assuming that a finite set of generators of the centralizer is known. In addition, the factorization problem of $L-λ$ over a new coefficient field, defined by the coefficient field of $L$ and $Γ$, allows the computation of spectral sheaves on $Γ$. The ultimate goal is to develop Picard-Vessiot theory for spectral problems $L(y)=λy$, for a generic $λ$. |
