Abstract:

We associate to any germ of an analytic variety a Lie algebra of tangent vector fields, the tangent algebra. Conversely, to any Lie algebra of vector fields an analytic germ can be associated, the integral variety. The paper investigates properties of this correspondence: The set of all tangent algebras is characterized in purely Lie algebra theoretic terms. And it is shown that the tangent algebra determines the analytic type of the variety.
