Parametric families of functions on a manifold #
Let F : ๐ โ M โ F' be a one-parameter family of functions from a manifold M to a normed space,
jointly smooth on ๐ ร M. This file proves the two facts needed to differentiate expressions
built from F and its manifold differentials in the parameter:
- the parameter derivative
y โฆ โแตฃ F (t, y)at a fixed parametertloses one derivative of joint regularity, and so does the field of velocities of the curves of a two-parameter family of points ofM; - for a jointly
Cยฒfamily, the parameter derivative and the manifold differential commute:โโ (d (F t) x v) = d (โโ F t) x v.
More generally, for a family G : P โ M โ F' parametrized by a manifold P and jointly C^n,
the differential d (G r) x at a fixed point x, as a covector-valued function of the parameter
r, loses one derivative of joint regularity. This is the regularity input for mixed second
derivatives of functions on a product of manifolds.
The second fact is the manifold form of the symmetry of mixed partial derivatives. It is read in
the extended chart at x, within the range of the model with corners, so it also holds at
boundary points.

A family of maps ฯแตค of M which is jointly C^n at (t, x) and fixes x at time t is,
read in the chart at x, a jointly C^n map of ๐ ร E at (t, extChartAt I x x).
A family of maps which is the identity near x at time t, read in the chart at x, is the
identity near the image of x at time t.
Regularity of the parameter derivative. If a family F : ๐ โ M โ F' is jointly C^n at
(t, x), then its parameter derivative y โฆ โแตฃ F (r, y) at r = t is C^m at x for every
m with m + 1 โค n.
Regularity of the velocity field of a two-parameter family. If f : ๐ โ ๐ โ M is jointly
C^n at (u, v), then the velocities of its curves f q, as a map of both parameters to the
tangent bundle, are C^m at (u, v) for every m with m + 1 โค n.
Mixed derivatives on a manifold. If a family F : ๐ โ M โ F' is jointly Cยฒ at (t, x)
(analytic, over a field other than โ or โ), then the parameter derivative at t of the
differential of F r at x, applied to v, is the differential at x of the parameter
derivative y โฆ โแตฃ F (r, y) at r = t, applied to v.
Regularity of the differential in a manifold parameter. If a family G : P โ M โ F' is
jointly C^n at (p, x), then the differential d (G r) x, as a function of r with values in
the covectors E โL[๐] F' on the model space of T_x M, is C^m at p for every m with
m + 1 โค n.
The velocity q โฆ dฮ_q (1, 0) of a C^n map out of ๐ ร M is a C^m section along it when
