The natural transformations between T-th order prolongation of tangent and cotangent bundles over Riemannian manifolds

Mariusz Plaszczyk (2015)

Annales UMCS, Mathematica

Similarity:

If (M,g) is a Riemannian manifold then there is the well-known base preserving vector bundle isomorphism TM → T* M given by v → g(v,−) between the tangent TM and the cotangent T* M bundles of M. In the present note first we generalize this isomorphism to the one JrTM → JrTM between the r-th order prolongation JrTM of tangent TM and the r-th order prolongation JrT M of cotangent TM bundles of M. Further we describe all base preserving vector bundle maps DM(g) : JrTM → JrT* M depending...

The natural transformations between r-tangent and r-cotangent bundles over Riemannian manifolds

Jan Kurek, Włodzimierz M. Mikulski (2015)

Annales UMCS, Mathematica

Similarity:

If (M,g) is a Riemannian manifold, we have the well-known base preserving vector bundle isomorphism TM ≅ T∗ M given by υ → g(υ,−) between the tangent TM and the cotangent T∗ M bundles of M. In the present note, we generalize this isomorphism to the one T(r)M ≅ Tr∗ M between the r-th order vector tangent T(r)M = (Jr(M,R)0)∗ and the r-th order cotangent Tr∗ M = Jr(M,R)0 bundles of M. Next, we describe all base preserving vector bundle maps CM(g) : T(r)M → Tr∗ M depending on a Riemannian...

Curvatures of the diagonal lift from an affine manifold to the linear frame bundle

Oldřich Kowalski, Masami Sekizawa (2012)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

We investigate the curvature of the so-called diagonal lift from an affine manifold to the linear frame bundle LM. This is an affine analogue (but not a direct generalization) of the Sasaki-Mok metric on LM investigated by L.A. Cordero and M. de León in 1986. The Sasaki-Mok metric is constructed over a Riemannian manifold as base manifold. We receive analogous and, surprisingly, even stronger results in our affine setting.
