Abstract

We study an implicit second-order ordinary differential equation with complete integral. The class of second-order Clairaut-type equations is an important class of completely integrable equations. Indeed, the notion of second-order Clairaut-type equations is the generalization of second-order classical Clairaut equations. We give generic classifications of second-order Clairaut-type equations under the weak equivalence and the one-parameter strict equivalence relations.
