  2. Pullback - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pullback

    The pullback bundle is an example that bridges the notion of a pullback as precomposition, and the notion of a pullback as a Cartesian square. In that example, the base space of a fiber bundle is pulled back, in the sense of precomposition, above. The fibers then travel along with the points in the base space at which they are anchored: the ...

  3. Pullback (category theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pullback_(category_theory)

    Another example of a pullback comes from the theory of fiber bundles: given a bundle map π : E → B and a continuous map f : X → B, the pullback (formed in the category of topological spaces with continuous maps) X × B E is a fiber bundle over X called the pullback bundle. The associated commutative diagram is a morphism of fiber bundles.

  4. Pullback (differential geometry) - Wikipedia

    When =, then the pullback and the pushforward describe the transformation properties of a tensor on the manifold . In traditional terms, the pullback describes the transformation properties of the covariant indices of a tensor; by contrast, the transformation of the contravariant indices is given by a pushforward.

  5. Pullback bundle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pullback_bundle

    In mathematics, a pullback bundle or induced bundle [1] [2] [3] is the fiber bundle that is induced by a map of its base-space. Given a fiber bundle π : E → B and a continuous map f : B′ → B one can define a "pullback" of E by f as a bundle f * E over B′. The fiber of f * E over a point b′ in B′ is just the fiber of E over f(b′).

  7. Pullback (cohomology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pullback_(cohomology)

    For example, if X, Y are manifolds, R the field of real numbers, and the cohomology is de Rham cohomology, then the pullback is induced by the pullback of differential forms. The homotopy invariance of cohomology states that if two maps f, g: X → Y are homotopic to each other, then they determine the same pullback: f * = g *.

    A text created from lines of a newspaper tourism article. The cut-up technique (or découpé in French) is an aleatory narrative technique in which a written text is cut up and rearranged to create a new text.
