If $X, Y$ are two complete vector fields with$[X, Y] = 0$, what is the resulting flow of $X+Y$?
I'm kind of confused on what the flow is.
I know that the respective flows for $Phi_t^X$ and $Phi_t^Y$ commute, but what is the flow for the addition of two vector fields?
Thank you.

First recall the following useful fact about commuting vector fields: if $X$ and $Y$ are complete vector fields such that $[X,Y]=0$, then $left(Phi_t^Xright)^*Y=Y$ for all $tinmathbbR$. Here $Phi_t^X$ is the time $t$ flow of $X$, and the pullback of vector fields is defined by
$$
left[left(Phi_t^Xright)^*Yright](p)=left(dPhi_-t^Xright)_Phi_t^X(p)(Y(Phi_t^X(p))).
$$
For a proof of this fact, see for instance commuting vector fields, commuting flows.
Now, we can prove that the flow of $X+Y$ is given by
$$
Phi_t^X+Y=Phi_t^XcircPhi_t^Y.
$$
Indeed, using the chain rule we have
beginalign
fracddtleft(Phi_t^XcircPhi_t^Yright)(p)&=left.fracddsright|_s=tleft(Phi_s^XcircPhi_t^Yright)(p)+left.fracddsright|_s=tleft(Phi_t^XcircPhi_s^Yright)(p)\
&=Xbig((Phi_t^XcircPhi_t^Y)(p)big)+left(dPhi_t^Xright)_Phi_t^Y(p)left(left.fracddsright|_s=tPhi_s^Y(p)right)\
&=Xbig((Phi_t^XcircPhi_t^Y)(p)big)+left(dPhi_t^Xright)_Phi_t^Y(p)big(Y(Phi_t^Y(p)big)\
&=Xbig((Phi_t^XcircPhi_t^Y)(p)big)+left[left(Phi_-t^Xright)^*(Y)right](Phi_t^XcircPhi_t^Y(p))\
&=Xbig((Phi_t^XcircPhi_t^Y)(p)big)+Ybig((Phi_t^XcircPhi_t^Y)(p)big),
endalign
using in the last equality that $left(Phi_-t^Xright)^*(Y)=Y$, as mentioned above. This proves the statement.
