Frobenius’ theorem


Theorem (Frobenius).

Let M be a smooth manifold (C) and let Δ be adistributionDlmfPlanetmath on M. Then Δ is completely integrable if and only ifΔ is involutive.

One direction in the proof is pretty easy since the tangent spaceof an integral manifold is involutive, so sometimes the theorem is onlystated in one direction, that is: If Δ is involutive then it iscompletely integrable.

Another way to the theorem is that if we have n vector fields {Xk}k=1n on a manifold M such that they are linearly independentMathworldPlanetmath at every point of the manifold, and furthermore if for any k,m we have[Xk,Xm]=j=1najXj for some C functionsMathworldPlanetmath aj, then for any point xN, there exists a germ of a submanifold NM, through x, such that TN is spannedby {Xk}k=1n. Note that if we extend N to all of M, it need not bean embedded submanifold anymore, but just an immersed one.

For n=1 above, this is just the existence and uniqueness of solution of ordinary differential equations.
