On sectioning tangent bundles and other vector bundles

Korbaš, Július, Zvengrowski, Peter

Similarity:

This paper has two parts. Part one is mainly intended as a general introduction to the problem of sectioning vector bundles (in particular tangent bundles of smooth manifolds) by everywhere linearly independent sections, giving a survey of some ideas, methods and results.Part two then records some recent progress in sectioning tangent bundles of several families of specific manifolds.
