Abstract
According to a theorem first stated by Clifford, Noether [8] and Rosanes [12], which later received a complete proof by Castelnuovo [2], the Cremona group of the plane is generated by de Jonquières transformations. J.F. Ritt [10] asked whether such a result could be generalized to the differential plane. We give a negative answer, relying on a flat system of Rouchon.
