Abstract: This paper focuses on effectivity aspects of the L"uroth's theorem in differential fields. Let mathcalF be an ordinary differential field of characteristic 0 and mathcalF<u> be the field of differential rational functions generated by a single indeterminate u. Let be given non constant rational functions v1,...,vninmathcalF<u> generating a differential subfield mathcalGsubseteqmathcalF<eu>. The differential L"uroth's theorem proved by Ritt in 1932 states that there exists vinmathcalG such that mathcalG=mathcalF<v>. Here we prove that the total order and degree of a generator v are bounded by minjextrmord(vj) and (nd(e+1)+1)2e+1, respectively, where e:=maxjextrmord(vj) and d:=maxjextrmdeg(vj). As a byproduct, our techniques enable us to compute a L"uroth generator by dealing with a polynomial ideal in a polynomial ring in finitely many variables.
