Abstract EN
Transformations of differential equations to other equivalent equations play a central role in many routines for solving intricate equations.
A class of differential equations that are particularly amenable to solution techniques based on such transformations is the class of linearisable second-order ordinary differential equations (ODEs).
There are various characterisations of such ODEs.
We exploit a particular characterisation and the expanded Lie group method to construct a generic solution for all linearisable second-order ODEs.
The general solution of any given equation from this class is then easily obtainable from the generic solution through a point transformation constructed using only two suitably chosen symmetries of the equation.
We illustrate the approach with three examples.
