Choose a coordinate ball around and a smaller convex coordinate ball whose closure lies in . For , let be the constant coordinate vector from to . Choose a smooth bump function supported in and equal to one on , and define in the chartextending it by zero outside . This is a compactly supported smooth vector field. The segment stays in , where , so uniqueness for ordinary differential equations givesIn particular, .
