Symmetries of vector fields: The diffeomorphism centralizer

2019 
In this paper we study the diffeomorphism centralizer of a vector field: given a vector field it is the set of diffeomorphisms that commutes with the flow. Our main theorem states that for a \begin{document}$ C^1 $\end{document} -generic diffeomorphism having at most finitely many sinks or sources, the diffeomorphism centralizer is quasi-trivial. In certain cases, we can promote the quasi-triviality to triviality. We also obtain a criterion for a diffeomorphism in the centralizer to be a reparametrization of the flow.
