Abstract (Summary of the Work)

A system uf r-th order partial differential inequalities is a subspace in the space of r-jets of CT" maps between manifolds. The problem of homotopy classification of C solutions of such systems is stauliel in this thesis. The text roughly divides into two parts. In the first part, the problem is considered in an equivariant setting when the system is open and invariant under the action of a compact L.ie group, but may not be invariant under the action of the pseudogroup of equivariant local diffeomorphisms. The second part concerns a non-equivariant set-up without the openness condition on the systern. The material is informally discussed in the introduction.
