Abstract. In this paper for a given Banach, possibly infinite dimensional, manifold M we focus on the geometry of its iterated tangent bundle T r M , r ∈ N ∪ {∞}. First we endow T r M with a canonical atlas using that of M . Then the concepts of vertical and complete lifts for functions and vector fields on T r M are defined which they will play a pivotal role in our next studies i.e. complete lift of (semi)sprays. Afterward we supply T ∞ M with a generalized Fréchet manifold structure and we will show that any vector field or (semi)spray on M , can be lifted to a vector field or (semi)spray on T ∞ M . Then, despite of the natural difficulties with non-Banach modeled manifolds, we will discuss about the ordinary differential equations on T ∞ M including integral curves, flows and geodesics. Finally, as an example, we apply our results to the infinite dimensional case of manifold of closed curves.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
