      [For the entire collection see Zbl 0722.00013.] Let \({\mathbf X}=\{X_ 1,\dots,X_ m\}\) be linearly independent vector fields in \(U\in\mathbb{R}^ n\), \(m\leq n\), and assume that finite many of \[ \{X_ i,[X_ j,X_ k],[X_ l,[X_ p,X_ q]],\dots\} \] generates \({\mathbf T}_ PU\) for all \(P\in U\). By Hörmander's theorem the \({\mathbf X}\)- Laplacian \[ \Delta_{\mathbf X}=X^ 2_ 1+\cdots+X^ 2_ m \] is hypoelliptic. In the paper under review, the author computes the fundamental solutions for some examples and study the geometric meaning of the distance function yielded by the fundamental solutions.
