Natural lifting of connections to vertical bundles

Kolář, Ivan, Mikulski, Włodzimierz M.

Similarity:

One studies the flow prolongation of projectable vector fields with respect to a bundle functor of order ( r , s , q ) on the category of fibered manifolds. As a result, one constructs an operator transforming connections on a fibered manifold Y into connections on an arbitrary vertical bundle over Y . It is deduced that this operator is the only natural one of finite order and one presents a condition on vertical bundles over Y under which every natural operator in question has finite order. ...
