On third order semiholonomic prolongation of a connection

Petr Vašík (2011)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

We recall several different definitions of semiholonomic jet prolongations of a fibered manifold and use them to derive some interesting properties of prolongation of a first order connection to a third order semiholonomic connection.

Connections on higher order principal prolongations

Vašík, Petr

Similarity:

Geometric constructions of connections on the higher order principal prolongations of a principal bundle are considered. Moreover, the existing differences among connections on non-holonomic, semiholonomic and holonomic principal prolongations are discussed.

On iteration of higher order jets and prolongation of connections

Miroslav Doupovec, Włodzimierz M. Mikulski (2011)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We introduce exchange natural equivalences of iterated nonholonomic, holonomic and semiholonomic jet functors, depending on a classical linear connection on the base manifold. We also classify some natural transformations of this type. As an application we introduce prolongation of higher order connections to jet bundles.
