Prolongation of second order connections to vertical Weil bundles. (English) Zbl 1090.58003

A section of the second non-holonomic jet prolongation of a fibred manifold is defined to be a second order connection. In the paper prolongations of second order connections on a fibred manifold to its vertical bundle determined by a Weil algebra \(A\) are studied. The properties of the absolute differentiation with respect to prolongated connection are studied as well.
