Connecting orbits of time dependent Lagrangian systems
We generalize to higher dimension results of Birkhoff and Mather on the existence of orbits wandering in regions of instability of twist maps. This generalization is strongly inspired by the one proposed by Mather. However, its advantage is that it contains most of the results of Birkhoff and Mather on twist maps.
Connection induced geometrical concepts
Summary: Geometrical concepts induced by a smooth mapping of manifolds with linear connections are introduced, especially the (higher order) covariant differentials of the mapping tangent to and the curvature of a corresponding tensor product connection. As an useful and physically meaningful consequence a basis of differential invariants for natural operators of such smooth mappings is obtained for metric connections. A relation to geometry of Riemannian manifolds is discussed.

Connections for non-holonomic 3-webs
A non-holonomic 3-web is defined by two operators and such that is a projector, is involutory, and they are connected via the relation . The so-called parallelizing connection with respect to which the 3-web distributions are parallel is defined. Some simple properties of such connections are found.

Connections in regular Poisson manifolds over ℝ-Lie foliations
The subject of this paper is the notion of the connection in a regular Poisson manifold M, defined as a splitting of the Atiyah sequence of its Lie algebroid. In the case when the characteristic foliation F is an ℝ-Lie foliation, the fibre integral operator along the adjoint bundle is used to define the Euler class of the Poisson manifold M. When M is oriented 3-dimensional, the notion of the index of a local flat connection with singularities along a closed transversal is defined. If, additionally,...
Connections induced by -tensor fields on cotangent bundles
On cotangent bundles the Liouville field, the Liouville 1-form and the canonical symplectic structure d exist. In this paper interactions between these objects and -tensor fields on cotangent bundles are studied. Properties of the connections induced by the above structures are investigated.
Connections of higher order and product preserving functors
In this paper we consider a product preserving functor of order and a connection of order on a manifold . We introduce horizontal lifts of tensor fields and linear connections from to with respect to . Our definitions and results generalize the particular cases of the tangent bundle and the tangent bundle of higher order.
