In differential geometry, the Lie–Palais theorem states that an action of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra on a smooth compact manifold can be lifted to an action of a finite-dimensional Lie group. For manifolds with boundary the action must preserve the boundary, in other words the vector fields on the boundary must be tangent to the boundary. Palais proved it as a global form of an earlier local theorem due to Sophus Lie. The example of the vector field d/dx on the open unit interval shows that the result is false for non-compact manifolds.
