Original Abstract

By a torsion of a general connection $\Gamma$ on a fibered manifold $Y\to M$ we understand the Froelicher/Nijenhuis bracket of $\Gamma$ and some canonical tangent valued one-form (affinor) on Y. Using all natural affinors on higher order cotangent bundles, we determine all torsions of general connections on such bundles. We present the geometrical interpretation and studz some properties of the torsions.

Key words in English
