Original Abstract

Any locally invertible morphism of a~finite--order jet space is either a~prolonged point transformation or a~prolonged Lie's contact transformation (the Lie--B\"acklund theorem). We recall this classical result with a~simple proof and moreover determine explicit formulae even for all (not necessarily invertible) morphisms of finite--order jet spaces. Examples of generalized (higher--order) contact transformations of jets that destroy all finite--order jet subspaces are stated with comments.

Keywords

Infinite--order jet spaces, morphisms of jets, generalized contact transformations, Lie--B\"acklund theorem.
