The geometry of orbits of families of smooth vector fields was studied by many mathematicians due to its importance in applications, in the theory of optimal control of dynamic systems, in geometry, and in the theory of foliations. In this paper it is studied geometry of orbits of vector fields in four dimensional Euclidean space. It is shown that orbits generate singular foliation ever regular leaf of which is a surface of negative Gauss curvature and zero normal torsion. In addition, the invariant functions of the considered vector fields are used to find solutions of the two-dimensional heat equation that are invariant under the groups of transformations generated by these vector fields. In the present paper, smoothness is understood as smoothness of the class $C^{\infty } $.References
