| Mar 19, 2010 at 21:14 | comment | added | Sergei Ivanov | You misinterpreted the question. What is asked is whether a single diffeomorphism $\phi_X\circ \phi_Y$ belongs to some one-parameter group (which may have nothing to do with the composition of flows). | |
| Mar 19, 2010 at 20:57 | comment | added | Charlie Frohman | The composition of flows isn't a one parameter group in general so it doesn't define a vector field. | |
| Mar 19, 2010 at 19:30 | comment | added | Sergei Ivanov | The question is not about $X\circ Y$, it is about their generated time 1 flow maps. | |
