Abstract: | It is known that an n-dimensional system of ordinary differential equations with Lie symmetry which involves a divergence-free Liouville vector
field possesses n−1 independent first integrals (i.e., it is algebraically integrable) (ünal in Phys. Lett. A 260:352–359, 1999]). In the present paper, we show that if an n-dimensional system of ordinary differential equations admits a C
∞-symmetry vector field which satisfies some special conditions, then it also possesses n−1 independent first integrals. Several examples are given to illustrate our result.
