We present an exposition of a method of discretizing ordinary differential equations while preserving their Lie point symmetries. This method is very general and can be applied to any ODE with a nontrivial symmetry group. The method is applied to obtain numerical slutions of second and third order ODEs invariant under two different realizations of $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$. The symmetry preserving method is shown to provide a better qualitative description of solutions than standard methods. In particular it provides solutions that are valid close to singularities and beyond them.

给出了一阶时滞常微分方程的一种群分类,并给出了一阶时滞常微分方程的时滞参数(时滞关系)方程。这样的系统(延迟常微分系统或DODS)的一个子集,其中包括线性DODE和解决方案独立的延迟关系具有无限维对称代数,因为这样做的非线性可线性化的变量的可逆变换。非线性DODS具有维数为$n$,$0 \leq n \leq 3$的对称代数。它示出了如何精确的解析解的不变DODS可以使用对称性约简。
