A New Equivalence Method

To upgrade the naive approach through power series expanded at only one point, the talk will show how to import concepts and principles of \'Elie Cartan's G-structured method of equivalence. Quite unexpectedly, basic linear representation theory happens to become of central use within highly nonlinear jet bundles.
Two specific illustrations will be presented: Homogeneous models of 5D PDE systems under fiber-preserving transformations; Affinely homogeneous surfaces $S^2$ in $R^4$.
Joint work with Julien Heyd (Paris-Saclay University).
