Abstract

top
The author proves that for a manifold M of dimension greater than 2 the sets of all natural operators T M ( T k r * M , T q * M ) and T M T T k r * M , respectively, are free finitely generated C ( ( k ) r ) -modules. The space T k r * M = J r ( M , k ) 0 , this is, jets with target 0 of maps from M to k , is called the space of all ( k , r ) -covelocities on M . Examples of such operators are shown and the bases of the modules are explicitly constructed. The definitions and methods are those of the book of I. Kolář, P. W. Michor and J. Slovák [Natural operations in differential geometry, Springer-Verlag, Berlin (1993; Zbl 0782.53013)].
