Natural transformations between T²₁T*M and T*T²₁M

Miroslav Doupovec (1991)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

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

On the functorial prolongations of principal bundles

Ivan Kolář, Antonella Cabras (2006)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

We describe the fundamental properties of the infinitesimal actions related with functorial prolongations of principal and associated bundles with respect to fiber product preserving bundle functors. Our approach is essentially based on the Weil algebra technique and an original concept of weak principal bundle.

On special types of nonholonomic 3 -jets

Ivan Kolář (2012)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

We deduce a classification of all special types of nonholonomic 3 -jets. In the introductory part, we summarize the basic properties of nonholonomic r -jets.

Continuity of projections of natural bundles

Włodzimierz M. Mikulski (1992)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

This paper is a contribution to the axiomatic approach to geometric objects. A collection of a manifold M, a topological space N, a group homomorphism E: Diff(M) → Homeo(N) and a function π: N → M is called a quasi-natural bundle if (1) π ∘ E(f) = f ∘ π for every f ∈ Diff(M) and (2) if f,g ∈ Diff(M) are two diffeomorphisms such that f|U = g|U for some open subset U of M, then E(f)|π^{-1}(U) = E(g)|π^{-1}(U). We give conditions which ensure that π: N → M is continuous. In particular,...

Natural transformations of higher order cotangent bundle functors

Jan Kurek (1993)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We determine all natural transformations of the rth order cotangent bundle functor T r * into T s * in the following cases: r = s, r < s, r > s. We deduce that all natural transformations of T r * into itself form an r-parameter family linearly generated by the pth power transformations with p =1,...,r.

Prolongation of linear semibasic tangent valued forms to product preserving gauge bundles of vector bundles.

Wlodzimierz M. Mikulski (2006)

Extracta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let A be a Weil algebra and V be an A-module with dim V &lt; ∞. Let E → M be a vector bundle and let TE → TM be the vector bundle corresponding to (A,V). We construct canonically a linear semibasic tangent valued p-form Tφ : T E → ΛT*TM ⊗ TTE on TE → TM from a linear semibasic tangent valued p-form φ : E → ΛT*M ⊗­ TE on E → M. For the Frolicher-Nijenhuis bracket we prove that [[Tφ, Tψ]] = T ([[φ,ψ]]) for any linear semibasic tangent valued p- and q-forms φ and ψ on E → M. We apply...
