We discuss various old and new definitions of the notion of a vector field on a convenient manifold that can be proved to give rise to Lie algebras, and are in finite dimensions equivalent to the standard notion of a vector field.

An algorithm for embedding finite dimensional Lie algebras into Lie algebras of vector fields (and Lie superalgebras into Lie superalgebras of vector fields) is offered in a way applicable over ground fields of any characteristic. The…
We prove that any Novikov algebra over a field of characteristic $\neq 2$ is Lie-solvable if and only if its commutator ideal $[N,N]$ is right nilpotent. We also construct examples of infinite-dimensional Lie-solvable Novikov algebras $N$…
A transitive Lie algebra g of rational vector fields on a projective manifold which do not preserve any foliation determines a rational map to an algebraic homogenous space G/H which maps g to lie(G).
We reprove the results of Jordan [18] and Siebert [31] and show that the Lie algebra of polynomial vector fields on an irreducible affine variety X is simple if and only if X is a smooth variety. Given proof is self-contained and does not…
