We give an algorithm to write down all conformally invariant differential operators acting between scalar functions on Minkowski space. All operators of order k are nonlinear and are functions on a finite family of functionally independent…

When ${\cal{D}}$ is a linear partial differential operator of any order, a direct problem is to look for an operator ${\cal{D}}_1$ generating the compatibility conditions (CC) ${\cal{D}}_1\eta=0$ of ${\cal{D}}\xi=\eta$. We may thus…
