Abstract

We show that one can define through the symmetry approach a procedure to check the linearizability of a difference equation via a point or a discrete Cole-Hopf transformation. If the equation is linearizable the symmetry provides the linearizing transformation. At the end we present few examples of applications for equations defined on four lattice points.
