Joint continuity of coordinate differentials #
The first coordinate derivative varies continuously with the map and the chart point in the
weak Whitney topology. The derivative is taken within the extended chart target, including
boundary and corner points. This is the operator-valued form of joint chart-jet evaluation,
used when inverting the differential of a diffeomorphism. The proof specializes
ContMDiffMap.tendsto_iteratedFDerivWithin_extChartAt to order one and uses Mathlib's
continuousMultilinearCurryFin1 to obtain a continuous linear operator.
First coordinate derivatives, as linear operators, and second coordinate derivatives, as bilinear
operators, converge uniformly on compact subsets of the chart target
(TauCeti.tendstoUniformlyOn_fderivWithin_extChartAt,
TauCeti.tendstoUniformlyOn_fderivWithin_fderivWithin_extChartAt). This is the form of C²
closeness used for the persistence of nondegenerate critical points.
Coordinate differentials vary continuously in the map and the chart point.
On a compact subset of a source chart target which f₀ maps into a target chart, the
coordinate differentials of maps near f₀ converge uniformly to those of f₀.
On a compact subset of a source chart target which f₀ maps into a target chart, the second
coordinate derivatives of maps near f₀ converge uniformly to those of f₀.
