Abstract

The algebra of differential invariants under SA3(R)SA_3(\mathbb{R}) of generic parabolic surfaces S2R3S^2 \subset \mathbb{R}^3 with nonvanishing Pocchiola 4th4^{\text{th}} invariant WW is shown to be generated, through invariant differentiations, by only one other invariant, MM, of order 55, having 5757 differential monomials. The proof is based on Fels-Olver's recurrence formulas, pulled back to the parabolic jet bundles.
