We calculate the 1-st nontrivial differential invariant of this action. It is a horizontal differential 2-form with values in some algebra, it is defined on the bundle of 2--jets of sections of the considered bundle. We prove that this form is a unique obstruction to linearizability of these equations by point transformations.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2008-04-03T17:26:18.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "53A55", "53C10", "53C15", "34A30", "34A26", "34C20", "58F35" ], "keywords": [ "ordinary differential equations", "linearizability", "point transformations", "nontrivial differential invariant", "unique obstruction" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 14, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2008arXiv0804.0306Y" } } }
