Abstract

A reduction method of ODEs not possessing Lie point symmetries makes use of the so called $\lambda$-symmetries. These symmetries are not standard symmetries, nevertheless for any given $\lambda$-symmetry of an ODE $% \mathcal{Y}$ one can always reconstruct nonlocal symmetries of $\mathcal{Y}$% . As a consequence, using these nonlocal symmetries, the $\lambda$-symmetry reduction method follows from the standard method of symmetry reduction by differential invariants.
