Abstract. We discuss the Monge problem for under-determined systems of ordinary differential equations with an arbitrary degree of freedom and give a sufficient condition, in terms of truncated multi-flag systems, for the Monge property to hold. This condition extends in a natural way the Cartan criterion valid for systems with one degree of freedom.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
