Lagrangians and Euler morphisms on fibered-fibered frame bundles from projectable-projectable classical linear connections

Anna Bednarska (2011)

Annales UMCS, Mathematica

We classify all F2Mm1, m2, n1, n2-natural operators Atransforming projectable-projectable torsion-free classical linear connections ∇ on fibered-fibered manifolds Y of dimension (m1,m2, n1, n2) into rth order Lagrangians A(∇) on the fibered-fibered linear frame bundle Lfib-fib(Y) on Y. Moreover, we classify all F2Mm1, m2, n1, n2-natural operators B transforming projectable-projectable torsion-free classical linear connections ∇ on fiberedfibered manifolds Y of dimension (m1, m2, n1, n2) into Euler...

Linear direct connections

Jan Kubarski, Nicolae Teleman (2007)

Banach Center Publications

In this paper we study the geometry of direct connections in smooth vector bundles (see N. Teleman [Tn.3]); we show that the infinitesimal part, τ , of a direct connection τ is a linear connection. We determine the curvature tensor of the associated linear connection τ . As an application of these results, we present a direct proof of N. Teleman’s Theorem 6.2 [Tn.3], which shows that it is possible to represent the Chern character of smooth vector bundles as the periodic cyclic homology class of a...
