Sur les champs de vecteurs invariants sur l'espace tangent d'un espace symétrique
Let $G$ be a real reductive connected Lie group and $\sigma$ an involution of $G$. Let $H$ denote the identity component of the group of fixed points of $\sigma$, $\mathfrak g$ the Lie algebra of $G$ and $\mathfrak q$ the $-1$ eigenspace of $\sigma$ in $\mathfrak g$. The group $H$ acts naturally on $\mathfrak q$ via the adjoint representation. Let $C^{\infty}(\mathfrak q)^H$ denote the algebra of $H$-invariant smooth functions on $\mathfrak q$, and $\mathfrak X(\mathfrak q)^H$ the space of $H$-invariant smooth vetor fields on $\mathfrak q$. Any vetor field $X\in \mathfrak X(\mathfrak q)^H$ defines naturally a derivation $D_X$ of the algebra $C^{\infty}(\mathfrak q)^H$. We prove that the image of the map $X\mapsto D_X$ is the set of derivations of the algebra $C^{\infty}(\mathfrak q)^H$ preserving the ideal $\it{\Phi}C^{\infty}(\mathfrak q)^H$ of $C^{\infty}(\mathfrak q)^H$, where $\it{\Phi}$ is a discriminant function on $\mathfrak q$.
