Lie derivative (for vector fields)


Let M be a smooth manifoldMathworldPlanetmath, and X,Y𝒯(M) smooth vector fieldson M. Let Θ:𝒰M be the flow of X, where𝒰×M is an open neighborhood of{0}×M. We make use of the following notation:

𝒰p={t|(t,p)𝒰},pM,
𝒰t={pM|(t,p)𝒰},t,

and we introduce theauxiliary maps θt:𝒰tM andθp:𝒰pM defined as

Θ(t,p)=θt(p)=θp(t),(t,p)𝒰.

The Lie derivativeMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath of Y along X is the vector fieldXY𝒯(M) defined by

(XY)p=ddt(d(θ-t)θt(p)(Yθt(p)))|t=0=limt0d(θ-t)θt(p)(Yθt(p))-Ypt,pM,

where d(θ-t)θt(p)Hom(Tθt(p)M,TpM) if the push-forward of θ-t, i.e.

d(θ-t)θt(p)(v)(f)=v(fθ-t),vTθ-t(p)M,fC(p).

The following result is not immediate at all.

Theorem 1

XY=[X,Y], where [X,Y]=XY-YX is the Lie bracket of X andY.
