A case of the generalized vanishing conjecture

Abstract

In this paper, we show that the GVC (generalized vanishing conjecture) holds for the differential operator $\Lambda=(\partial_x-\Phi(\partial_y))\partial_y$ and all polynomials $P(x,y)$, where $\Phi(t)$ is any polynomial over the base field. The GVC arose from the study of the Jacobian conjecture.
