A product preserving functor is a covariant functor from the category of all manifolds and smooth mappings into the category of fibered manifolds satisfying a list of axioms the main of which is product preserving: ( M 1 × M 2 ) = ( M 1 ) × ( M 2 ) . It is known that any product preserving functor is equivalent to a Weil functor T A . Here T A ( M ) is the set of equivalence classes of smooth maps ϕ : n M and ϕ , ϕ ' are equivalent if and only if for every smooth function f : M the formal Taylor series at 0 of f ϕ and f ϕ ' are equal in A = [ [ x 1 , , x n ] ] / 𝔞 . In this paper all known properties of product preserving functors are derived from the axioms without using Weil functors.

AB - A product preserving functor is a covariant functor ${\mathcal {F}}$ from the category of all manifolds and smooth mappings into the category of fibered manifolds satisfying a list of axioms the main of which is product preserving: ${\mathcal {F}} (M_1 \times M_2) = {\mathcal {F}} (M_1) \times {\mathcal {F}} (M_2)$. It is known that any product preserving functor ${\mathcal {F}}$ is equivalent to a Weil functor $T^A$. Here $T^A (M)$ is the set of equivalence classes of smooth maps $\varphi : \mathbb {R}^n \rightarrow M$ and $\varphi , \varphi ^{\prime }$ are equivalent if and only if for every smooth function $f : M \rightarrow \mathbb {R}$ the formal Taylor series at 0 of $f \circ \varphi $ and $f \circ \varphi ^{\prime }$ are equal in $A = \mathbb {R}[[x_1, \dots , x_n]]/{\mathfrak {a}}$. In this paper all known properties of product preserving functors are derived from the axioms without using Weil functors.
