Abstract

We prove the (first) reduction theorem for general and classical connections, i.e. we prove that any natural operator of a general connection Γ on a fibered manifold and a classical connection Λ on the base manifold can be expressed as a zero order operator of the curvature tensors of Γ and Λ and their appropriate derivatives.
