Local classification of Monge-Ampère differential equations. (English. Russian original) Zbl 0555.35016

Sov. Math., Dokl. 28, 328-332 (1983); translation from Dokl. Akad. Nauk SSSR 272, 34-38 (1983).
A Monge-Ampère equation on the manifold M is defined as \(\sigma^*_ h(\omega)=0\) where \(\omega\) is a given differential form on the jet bundle \(J^ 1M\) and \(\sigma_ h: M\to J^ 1M\) its section corresponding to the unknown function \(h\in C^{\infty}(M)\). Sufficient conditions for the local contact equivalence of a Monge-Ampère equation to an equation with constant coefficients are given. Normal forms of such equations, in case dim M\(=3\), are listed.
