Commuting Vector Fields

T. J. Willmore has shown that if a differentiable manifold's rank (the maximum number of everywhere linearly independent commuting vector fields definable on it) equals the manifold's dimension, then the manifold is a torus of the appropriate dimension [1]. This theorem is proved more simply and without any differentiability hypothesis in the present note.
