    A complex manifold satisfies the ``density property'' if the integrable holomorphic vector fields generate a dense Lie subalgebra of the Lie algebra of all global holomorphic vector fields. This is an important property which has many implications and which was first verified for the affine complex space \({\mathbb C}^n\) by \textit{E. Andersén} and \textit{L. Lempert} [Invent. Math. 110, No. 2, 371--388 (1992; Zbl 0770.32015)]. The corresponding property for complex algebraic varieties is called ``algebraic density property''. Danilov-Gizatullin surfaces are two-dimensional complex affine algebraic varieties which can be characterized in a number of equivalent ways, e.g., as the complement of an ample section of a ruling in a Hirzebruch surface. In this article Donzelli proves that every Danilov-Gizatullin surface satisfies the algebraic density property.
