On Computing Linearizing Coordinates from the Symmetry Algebra
Journal of Lie Theory, Volume 31 (2021) no. 3, pp. 625-635
A characterization of the symmetry algebra of the Nth-order ordinary differential equations (ODEs) with maximal symmetry and all third-order linearizable ODEs is given. This is used to show that such an algebra g determines -- up to a point transformation -- only one linear equation whose symmetry algebra is g and an algorithmic procedure is given to find the linearizing coordinates. This procedure is applied to several examples from the literature.
