The group structure for jet bundles over Lie groups

Differential Geometry 2013-04-19 v1

Abstract

The jet bundle JkGJ^kG of kk-jets of curves in a Lie group GG has a natural Lie group structure. We present an explicit formula for the group multiplication in the right trivialization and for the group 2-cocycle describing the abelian Lie group extension gJkGJk1G\mathfrak{g}\to J^{k}G\to J^{k-1}G.
