Introduction and statement of the main results
In this work, we consider the nonstretching Rolie–Poly model [1] which describes entangled linear polymer melts, where denotes a conformation tensor and the dot denotes the ordinary time derivative. Parameters , and denote the shear rate, the convective constraint release coefficient and the ratio of the Rouse time and the reptation time , respectively. With the
Proof of Theorem 1
Let be a Darboux polynomial of system (2), where each is a homogeneous polynomial of degree for . The cofactor is of the form .
By substituting and into Eq. (3) we have
Identifying the homogeneous items of degree , we get
Here we use the method of characteristic curves to solve it.
Conclusion
In this paper we have proved that the nonstretching Rolie–Poly system has no polynomial first integral when . And there always exists an invariant algebraic surface which gives this system the prefix “nonstretching”. We also find out many Darboux polynomials and show the cases when this system is completely integrable. But it should be noted that we cannot exclude the existence of irreducible Darboux polynomials of degree more than two. Computation for these Darboux polynomials is
