In many applications, spaces of maximal symmetry play an important role. I will discuss how to obtain a universal bound for symmetry dimension of a geometry.

I will start with the general setup for differential equations in jet-spaces, recall their geometry and derive dimensional bounds on the solution spaces.

Then I introduce Lie equations for pseudogroups of transformations, and discuss their relations to symmetries and differential invariants of geometric structures.
