## Singularities in the geometric theory of differential equations

We briefly recall the basic ideas of the Vessiot theory, a geometric approach to di fferential equations based on vector fields. Then we show that it allows to extend naturally some results on singularities for ordinary diff erential equations to maximally overdetermined partial diff erential equations.
