In this paper, we prove that every local derivation on Witt algebras W n , W + n or W ++ n is a derivation for any n ∈ N. As a consequence we obtain that every local derivation on a centerless generalized Virasoro algebra of higher rank is a derivation.
The 'restoration method' is a novel method we recently introduced for systematically deriving discrete Painlevé equations. In this method we start from a given Painlevé equation, typically with E (1) 8 symmetry, obtain its autonomous limit and construct all possible QRT-canonical forms of mappings that are equivalent to it by homographic transformations. Discrete Painlevé equations are then obtained by deautonomising the various mappings thus obtained. We apply the restoration method to two challenging examples, one of which does not lead to a QRT mapping at the autonomous limit but we verify that even in that case our method is indeed still applicable. For one of the equations we derive we also show how, starting from a form where the independent variable advances one step at a time, we can obtain versions that correspond to multiple-step evolutions.

over its subring of invariants of a finite group to construct modular invariants and show that it behaves better than the transfer homomorphism.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
