Let δ be a closed *-derivation on a commutative C*-algebra , suppose that is dense in for some n = 1, 2, …, ∞, and let be a linear operator satisfying the locality condition

It is shown that , for some finite integer p≤n and functions lm on X. Estimates on the coefficients lm are obtained and applied to flows and local flows.
