Complete lift of vector fields and sprays to $T^\infty M$
Abstract
In this paper for a given Banach, possibly infinite dimensional, manifold we focus on the geometry of its iterated tangent bundle , . First we endow with a canonical atlas using that of . Then the concepts of vertical and complete lifts for functions and vector fields on are defined which they will play a pivotal role in our next studies i.e. complete lift of (semi)sprays. Afterward we supply with a generalized Fr\'{e}chet manifold structure and we will show that any vector field or (semi)spray on , can be lifted to a vector field or (semi)spray on . Then, despite of the natural difficulties with non-Banach modeled manifolds, we will discuss about the ordinary differential equations on including integral curves, flows and geodesics. Finally, as an example, we apply our results to the infinite dimensional case of manifold of closed curves.
