Algebraic classification of homogeneous polynomial vector fields in the plane

A classification is provided of two-dimensional homogeneous polynomial vector fields of arbitrary degree. This classification results from a consideration of the linear equivalence of such vector fields, using techniques from tensor and spinor algebra. It simplifies, synthesizes and generalizes previous works, which have been restricted to those cases when the polynomials are of no higher than third degree.
