  • In this paper, we examine some geometric vector fields on 2-step nilmanifolds of dimension 5. We show that there is not any invariant concurrent vector field on such spaces. Our results show that in these manifolds each invariant conformal vector field is Killing and every invariant projective field is affine. Also, the space of some other invariant geometric fields such as affine, Killing, and harmonic vector fields on the manifolds are determined.
