VectorBundle{𝔽,TVS<:VectorSpaceType,TM<:AbstractManifold{𝔽}} <: AbstractManifold{𝔽}

Vector bundle on a AbstractManifold M of type VectorSpaceType.

Constructor

VectorBundle(M::AbstractManifold, type::VectorSpaceType)

VectorBundleFibers(fiber::VectorSpaceType, M::AbstractManifold)

Type representing a family of vector spaces (fibers) of a vector bundle over M with vector spaces of type fiber. In contrast with VectorBundle, operations on VectorBundleFibers expect point-like and vector-like parts to be passed separately instead of being bundled together. It can be thought of as a representation of vector spaces from a vector bundle but without storing the point at which a vector space is attached (which is specified separately in various functions).

VectorBundleVectorTransport(
    method_point::AbstractVectorTransportMethod,
    method_vector::AbstractVectorTransportMethod,
)

Vector transport type on VectorBundle. method_point is used for vector transport of the point part and method_vector is used for transport of the vector part

VectorSpaceAtPoint{
    𝔽,
    TFiber<:VectorBundleFibers{<:VectorSpaceType,<:AbstractManifold{𝔽}},
    TX,
} <: AbstractManifold{𝔽}

A vector space at a point p on the manifold. This is modelled using VectorBundleFibers with only a vector-like part and fixing the point-like part to be just p.

This vector space itself is also a manifold. Especially, it's flat and hence isometric to the Euclidean manifold.

Constructor

exp(B::VectorBundle, p, X)

Exponential map of tangent vector $X$ at point $p$ from vector bundle B over manifold B.fiber (denoted $\mathcal M$).

Notation:

• The point $p = (x_p, V_p)$ where $x_p ∈ \mathcal M$ and $V_p$ belongs to the fiber $F=π^{-1}(\{x_p\})$ of the vector bundle $B$ where $π$ is the canonical projection of that vector bundle $B$.
• The tangent vector $X = (V_{X,M}, V_{X,F}) ∈ T_pB$ where $V_{X,M}$ is a tangent vector from the tangent space $T_{x_p}\mathcal M$ and $V_{X,F}$ is a tangent vector from the tangent space $T_{V_p}F$ (isomorphic to $F$).

The exponential map is calculated as

\[\exp_p(X) = (\exp_{x_p}(V_{X,M}), V_{\exp})\]

where $V_{\exp}$ is the result of vector transport of $V_p + V_{X,F}$ to the point $\exp_{x_p}(V_{X,M})$. The sum $V_p + V_{X,F}$ corresponds to the exponential map in the vector space $F$.

The logarithmic map is calculated as

\[\log_p q = (\log_{x_p}(x_q), V_{\log} - V_p)\]

where $V_{\log}$ is the result of vector transport of $V_q$ to the point $x_p$. The difference $V_{\log} - V_p$ corresponds to the logarithmic map in the vector space $F$.

The distance is calculated as

\[d_B(x, y) = \sqrt{d_M(x_p, x_q)^2 + d_F(V_p, V_{q←p})^2}\]

where $d_\mathcal M$ is the distance on manifold $\mathcal M$, $d_F$ is the distance between two vectors from the fiber $F$ and $V_{q←p}$ is the result of parallel transport of vector $V_q$ to point $x_p$. The default behavior of vector_transport_to is used to compute the vector transport.
