Review text

[For the entire collection see Zbl 0724.00013.] The authors recall the formalism of Lie pseudogroup theory, including Cartan's construction of invariant 1-forms associated to a Lie pseudogroup. The following applications are treated: 1) proof that all Riemannian metrics in the plane are locally conformally equivalent to the standard flat metric 2) proof that every second order ordinary differential equation \(y=F(x,y,y')\) is contact-equivalent to \(y=0\) 3) determination of the maximal sub-pseudogroup which arise as symmetry groups of quasilinear partial differential in 2 independent variables.
