Original abstract

To define a higher order connection on a fibered manifold one can use the sections of nonholonomic jet prolongations. However, a more natural approach seems to be the one assuming the structure of a higher-order tangent bundle and using White's sector-forms on these bundles.

Czech abstract

Definovat konexi vyššího řádu na fibrované varietě lze pomocí řezů neholonomního jetového prodloužení. Přirozenějším způsobem se však zdá být použití struktury tečného bandlu vyššího řádu a pomocí Whiteových sektor-forem.
