  2. Fiber bundle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber_bundle

    This is called a trivial bundle. Examples of non-trivial fiber bundles include the Möbius strip and Klein bottle, as well as nontrivial covering spaces. Fiber bundles, such as the tangent bundle of a manifold and other more general vector bundles, play an important role in differential geometry and differential topology, as do principal bundles.

  3. Fibration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibration

    A mapping : between total spaces of two fibrations : and : with the same base space is a fibration homomorphism if the following diagram commutes: . The mapping is a fiber homotopy equivalence if in addition a fibration homomorphism : exists, such that the mappings and are homotopic, by fibration homomorphisms, to the identities and .

  4. Hopf fibration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hopf_fibration

    In differential topology, the Hopf fibration (also known as the Hopf bundle or Hopf map) describes a 3-sphere (a hypersphere in four-dimensional space) in terms of circles and an ordinary sphere. Discovered by Heinz Hopf in 1931, it is an influential early example of a fiber bundle.

  5. Fiber bundle construction theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber_bundle_construction...

    The Möbius strip can be constructed by a non-trivial gluing of two trivial bundles on open subsets U and V of the circle S 1.When glued trivially (with g UV =1) one obtains the trivial bundle, but with the non-trivial gluing of g UV =1 on one overlap and g UV =-1 on the second overlap, one obtains the non-trivial bundle E, the Möbius strip.

  6. Vertical and horizontal bundles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Vertical_and_horizontal_bundles

    At each point in the fiber , the vertical fiber is unique. It is the tangent space to the fiber. The horizontal fiber is non-unique. It merely has to be transverse to the vertical fiber. In mathematics, the vertical bundle and the horizontal bundle are vector bundles associated to a smooth fiber bundle.

  7. I-bundle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I-bundle

    That surface has three I-bundles: the trivial bundle and two twisted bundles. Together with the Seifert fiber spaces, I-bundles are fundamental elementary building blocks for the description of three-dimensional spaces. These observations are simple well known facts on elementary 3-manifolds. Line bundles are both I-bundles and vector bundles ...

  8. Frame bundle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frame_bundle

    The orthonormal frame bundle () of the Möbius strip is a non-trivial principal /-bundle over the circle. In mathematics , a frame bundle is a principal fiber bundle F ( E ) {\displaystyle F(E)} associated with any vector bundle E {\displaystyle E} .

  9. Integration along fibers - Wikipedia

    which implies , induce the same map on cohomology, the fact known as the homotopy invariance of de Rham cohomology. As a corollary, for example, let U be an open ball in R n with center at the origin and let f t : U → U , x ↦ t x {\displaystyle f_{t}:U\to U,x\mapsto tx} .
