Abstract
This work concerns two new theorems which count the maximum possible number of independent generators of a certain form which leave an ordinary differential equation of second or third order covariant. Sophus Lic has derived such theorems for a particular class of transformations. The new theorems contain Lic’s theorems as a suboase, and are therefore called ‘generalized” theorems.
