concept of a smooth vector bundle in the extrinsic setting (§2.6.2). 2.6.1 Submersions Let M ⊂ Rk be a smooth m-manifold and N ⊂ R be a smooth n-manifold. A smooth map f : N → M is called a submersion iff its derivative df (q) : TqN → Tf (q)M is surjective for every q ∈ N . Figure 2.12: A local right inverse of a submer...

Thus every p0 ∈ M has a neighborhood U such that the restriction of Π to U is smooth. This shows that (ii) implies (iii). We prove that (iii) implies (iv). Fix a point p0 ∈ M and choose a ba- sis v1, . ...

Prove that the manifold topology is the quotient topology, i.e. if π : Cn+1 \ {0} → CPn denotes the obvious projection, then a subset U ⊂ CPn is open if and only if π−1(U ) is an open subset of Cn+1 \ {0}. Example 2.8.6. The real projective space RPn is the set RPn = ⊂ Rn+1 | is a 1-dimension...
derivative of f at p ∈ M is a linear map df (p) : TpM → Rn, and the formula (2.8.8) reads x := φα(p). df (p)[α, ξ]p = d(f ◦ φ−1 α )(x)ξ, This formula also applies to maps defined on some open subset of M . In particular, with f = φα : Uα → Rm we have dφα(p)[α, ξ]p = ξ. Thus the map dφα(p) : TpM → Rm is the canonical vec...

The above notation is motivated by the observation that the derivative of a smooth function f : M → R in the direction of a vector field X on a coordinate patch Uα is given by LX f |Uα = m i=1 ξi ∂f ∂xi . Here the term ...
M is paracompact W has a locally finite refinement {Wj}j∈J . By the axiom of choice there is a map such that J → I : j → ij W j ⊂ Vij ∀ j ∈ J. Since the collection {Wj}j∈J is locally finite, we have Ki := Wj = ij =i ij =i W j ⊂ Vi by Lemma 2.9.11. Since V i is compact so is Ki. Step 3. There is a partition of unity subord...

Thus we have proved that ψ0 : Ω0 × G → P is an injective immersion. Shrinking Ω0 further, if necessary, we may assume that Ω0 has a compact closure and that ψ ...

While there is no canonical isomorphism from TpM to TqM we shall see that every smooth curve γ in M connecting p to q induces an isomorphism between the tangent space...

One may explain the paradox this way: the train is moving forward and the wheel is rotating around the axle. The velocity of a point on the wheel is the sum of these two velocities. When the point is on the bottom...

Identify CPn with the quotient of the unit sphere S2n+1 ⊂ Cn+1 by the diagonal action of the circle S1, i.e. CPn = S2n+1/S1. Then the tangent space of CPn at the equivalence class [z] = [z0 : · · · : ...

Thus a reparametrized geodesic need not be a geodesic. We assume throughout that M ⊂ Rn is a smooth m-manifold. Definition 4.1.1 (Length and energy). Let I = [a, b] ⊂ R b...

Extending this inverse to a smooth map from Tp0M to Rn and composing it with the map y : M → Tp0M ⊥, we obtain a smooth map f : Tp0M → Tp0M ⊥ and an open neighborh...

(4.5.6) Moreover, we have d expp0(0) = id : Tp0M → Tp0M by Corollary 4.3.7. Hence the Implicit Function Theorem 2.6.15 asserts tha...
M \ expp(v) | v ∈ TpM, |v| ≤ ε . This shows that Sε(p) = expp(εΣ1(p)) and, since ε is smaller than the injectivity radius, the map Σ1(p) → Sε(p) : v → expp(εv) is a diffeomorphism. 4.6.
