Abstract

The theory of Lie remarkable equations, i.e. differential equations characterized by their Lie point symmetries, is reviewed and applied to ordinary differential equations. In particular, we consider some relevant Lie algebras of vector fields on Rk\mathbb{R}^k and characterize Lie remarkable equations admitted by the considered Lie algebras.
