Description | Abstract. For every r-th order Weil functor T(A), we introduce the underliyng k-th order Weil functors T(Ak), k=1,...,r-1. We deduce that T(A)M -> T(Ar-1)M is an affine bundle for every manifold M. Generalizing the classical concept of contakt element by C. Ehresmann, we define the bundle of contact elements of type A on M and we describe some affine properties of this bundle. |
