Abstract
A smooth affine algebraic variety X equipped with an algebraic volume form ω has the algebraic volume density property (AVDP) if the Lie algebra generated by complete algebraic vector fields of ω-divergence zero coincides with the space of all algebraic vector fields of ω-divergence zero. We develop an effective criterion of verifying whether a given X has AVDP. As an application of this method we establish AVDP for any homogeneous space X = G/R that admits a G-invariant algebraic volume form where G is a linear algebraic group and R is a closed reductive subgroup of G.
