Connections on principal prolongations of principal bundles

Differential Geometry and Its Applications, 2008
We study the principal connections on the r-th principal prolongation of a principal bundle by using the related Lie algebroids. We deduce that both approaches to the concept of torsion are naturally equivalent. Special attention is paid to the flow prolongation of connections.

Curvature on a Principal Bundle

2020
This chapter examines curvature on a principal bundle. The curvature of a connection on a principal G-bundle is a g-valued 2-form that measures, in some sense, the deviation of the connection from the Maurer-Cartan connection on a product bundle. The Maurer-Cartan form Θ‎ on a Lie group G satisfies the Maurer-Cartan equation. Let M be a smooth manifold.

Principal Fiber Bundles

2019
In this chapter we treat the theory of principal bundles and connections on them for families of supermanifolds. The most important examples of principal bundles are frame bundles of vector bundles. Many extra structures on vector bundles, such as metrics or almost complex structures can actually be formulated in terms of a reduction of the structure ...
