On the integrability aspects of the onedimensional classical continuum isotropic biquadratic Heisenberg spin chainThe integrability of systems of ordinary differential equations with polynomial vector fields is investigated by using the singularity analysis methods. Three types of results are obtained. First, a general relationship between the degrees of first integrals and the so-called Kowalevskaya exponents is derived. Second, it is shown that all solutions of algebraically integrable systems can be expanded in Puiseux series. Third, a new method to study partially integrable systems is studied. These different aspects allow us to study algorithmically the integrability, partial integrability, and nonintegrability of differential systems.
