Abstract

top
Given a vector field X on an algebraic variety V over ℂ, I compare the following two objects: (i) the envelope of X, the smallest algebraic pseudogroup over V whose Lie algebra contains X, and (ii) the Galois pseudogroup of the foliation defined by the vector field X + d/dt (restricted to one fibre t = constant). I show that either they are equal, or the second has codimension one in the first.
