The Lie transform method used in Perturbation Theory is based upon an intrinsic algorithm for transforming functions or vector fields by a transformation close to the identity. It can thus be viewed as a specialization of methods and results of differential geometry as is shown in the first part of this paper. In a second part we answer some of the questions left open in connection with the equivalence of the algorithms proposed by Hori and Deprit. From a formal point of view, the methods are shown to be equivalent for non-canonical as well as canonical transformations and a formula relating directly the two generating functions (or vector fields) is presented (formula (5.17)). On the other hand, the equivalence is shown to hold also in the ring ofp-differentiable functions.
