Canonical frames for Gl(2)-structures
Abstract
We construct a canonical frame for an arbitrary Gl(2)-structure thus solving the equivalence problem for Gl(2)-structures. Our treatment includes also a problem of contact equivalence of ordinary differential equations and applies to certain classes of vector distributions. Additionally we characterise Gl(2)-structures which are defined by ODEs.
