Abstract

In the paper, combinatorial issues of the factorization of linear ordinary differential operators are studied. It is proved that any finite distributive lattice is that of right divisors of some d’Alembert linear ordinary differential operator with the coefficients belonging to the differential field C(x) of rational functions.
