Maximal Differentially Closed Field

A Maximal Differentially Closed Field is a type of mathematical structure used in algebra to study differential equations. Imagine it as a field (like the set of real numbers) that has been extended to include solutions to all differential equations that can be formed from its elements. This field is "maximal" in the sense that it includes as many solutions as possible without leaving any out. It helps mathematicians understand how different functions behave when they change continuously, making it essential in fields like physics and engineering, where such changes are critical.
