Abstract: Although Évariste Galois died at the age of 20 after a duel, the ideas he introduced continue to influence modern mathematics nearly two centuries later. In this talk, we will begin with a short refresher on classical Galois theory before moving to differential Galois theory, introducing Picard–Vessiot theory to study linear differential equations. We will then discuss the difference-differential setting, where differential equations are considered together with additional endomorphism(s) acting on the base field, and briefly outline my current research on extending this theory to several commuting endomorphisms..
