Natural transformations between T²₁T*M and T*T²₁M

Miroslav Doupovec (1991)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We determine all natural transformations T²₁T*→ T*T²₁ where T k r M = J 0 r ( k , M ) . We also give a geometric characterization of the canonical isomorphism ψ₂ defined by Cantrijn et al.

Natural transformations of Weil functors into bundle functors

Mikulski, Włodzimierz M. (1990)

Proceedings of the Winter School "Geometry and Physics"

[For the entire collection see Zbl 0699.00032.] Natural transformations of the Weil functor T A of A-velocities [I. Kolař, Commentat. Math. Univ. Carol. 27, 723-729 (1986; Zbl 0603.58001)] into an arbitrary bundle functor F are characterized. In the case where F is a linear bundle functor, the author deduces that the dimension of the vector space of all natural transformations of T A into F is finite and is less than or equal to dim ( F 0 k ) . The spaces of all natural transformations of Weil functors into linear...

Natural vector fields and 2-vector fields on the tangent bundle of a pseudo-Riemannian manifold

Josef Janyška (2001)

Archivum Mathematicum

Let M be a differentiable manifold with a pseudo-Riemannian metric g and a linear symmetric connection K . We classify all natural (in the sense of [KMS]) 0-order vector fields and 2-vector fields on T M generated by g and K . We get that all natural vector fields are of the form E ( u ) = α ( h ( u ) ) u H + β ( h ( u ) ) u V , where u V is the vertical lift of u T x M , u H is the horizontal lift of u with respect to K , h ( u ) = 1 / 2 g ( u , u ) and α , β are smooth real functions defined on R . All natural 2-vector fields are of the form Λ ( u ) = γ 1 ( h ( u ) ) Λ ( g , K ) + γ 2 ( h ( u ) ) u H u V , where γ 1 , γ 2 are smooth real functions defined...
