In this paper, we define a complete lift for semisprays. If $S$ is a semispray on a manifold $M$, its complete lift is a new semispray $S^c$ on $TM$. The motivation for this lift is two-fold: First, geodesics for $S^c$ correspond to the…

In Finsler geometry the complete lift vector fields have distinguished geometric significance. For example a vector field on a Finsler manifold is said to be conformal if its complete lift is conformal in usual sense. In this work we define…

For a vector field $X$ on a smooth manifold $M$ there exists a smooth but not necessarily Hausdorff manifold $M_\Bbb R$ and a complete vector field $X_\Bbb R$ on it which is the universal completion of $(M,X)$.

Criteria for a diffeomorphism of a smooth manifold $M$ to be lifted to a linear automorphism of a given real vector bundle $p\colon V\rightarrow M$, are stated. Examples are included and the metric and complex vector-bundle cases are also…

In this paper we present a method by which is obtained a sequence of $k$-semisprays and two sequences of nonlinear connections on the $k$-tangent bundle $T^kM$, starting from a given one. Interesting particular cases appear for Lagrange and…

Motivated by generalized geometry, we discuss differential geometric structures on the total space $\mathfrak{T}M$ of the bundle $TM\oplus T^*M$, where $M$ is a differentiable manifold; $\mathfrak{T}M$ is called a big-tangent manifold. The…

The classical tools which ensure the completeness of vector fields and second order differential equations for mechanical systems are revisited. Possible extensions in three directions are discussed: infinite dimensional Banach and Hilbert…

This paper has three objectives. First to recall the link between the classical Legendre-Fenschel transformation and a useful isomorphism between 1-jets of functions on a vector bundle and on its dual. As a particular consequence we obtain…

We extend the deformation to the normal cone and tangent groupoid constructions from finite-dimensional manifolds to infinite-dimensional Banach and Fredholm manifolds. Next, we generalize the concept of Fredholm filtrations to get a more…

In this paper we develop the geometry of bounded Fr\'echet manifolds. We prove that a bounded Fr\'echet tangent bundle admits a vector bundle structure. But the second order tangent bundle $T^2M$ of a bounded Fr\'echet manifold $M$, becomes…

Applying concepts and tools from classical tangent bundle geometry and using the apparatus of the calculus along the tangent bundle projection ('pull-back formalism'), first we enrich the known lists of the characterizations of affine…
