Calling Sequences
TotalJacobian(Phi)
Parameters
Phi - a transformation between two jet spaces

Description
|
|
•
|
Let E -> M and F -> N be two fiber bundles with dim(M) = m and dim(N) = n and let Phi: J^k(E) -> J^l(F) be a transformation. Let (x^i), i = 1, ... m be a system of local coordinates on M and let (y^a), a = 1, ... n be a system of local coordinates on N. Let F^a = y^a(Phi) be the y^a components of the map Phi--these are functions on J^k(E). Then the total Jacobian of Phi is the m x n Matrix [D_i F^a] where D_i denotes the total derivative with respect to x^i.

TotalJacobian returns the m x n matrix [D_i F^a].

The command TotalJacobian is part of the DifferentialGeometry:-JetCalculus package. It can be used in the form TotalJacobian(...) only after executing the commands with(DifferentialGeometry) and with(JetCalculus), but can always be used by executing DifferentialGeometry:-JetCalculus:-TotalJacobian(...).

Example 1.
First initialize several different jet spaces over bundles E1 -> M1, E2 -> M2, E3 -> M3. The dimension of the base spaces are dim(M1) = 2, dim(M2) = 1, dim(M3) = 3.
Define a transformation Phi1: J^2(E1) -> E2 and compute its total Jacobian (a 1 x 2 matrix).
