Linearization of third-order ordinary differential equations by point and contact transformations

We present here the solution of the problem on linearization of third-order ordinary differential equations by means of point and contact transformations. We provide, in explicit forms, the necessary and sufficient conditions for linearization, the equations for determining the linearizing point and contact transformations as well as the coefficients of the resulting linear equations.
