Coordinates of tangent fields along curves #
For a tangent field along a curve, the coordinate readings TauCeti.Manifold.sectionCoord in the
preferred tangent-bundle trivializations at two points differ by the tangent coordinate change
between the two charts, wherever the curve lies in both base sets.
Transporting a tangent field along γ by the differential of a map f which is C^n at the base
point, with 2 ≤ n, gives a tangent field along f ∘ γ, and differentiability in local
coordinates is preserved.

The coordinate readings of a tangent field along a curve in the trivializations at two points
whose base sets contain γ r differ by the tangent coordinate change between them.
Near a parameter whose image lies in two base sets, the coordinate readings of a tangent field along a curve are related by the tangent coordinate change.
The derivative along the curve of the reading of V in the chart at x, where the base set
of the trivialization at x contains γ t: the product rule for the reading in the chart at γ t
and the tangent coordinate change, whose inhomogeneous term is the derivative of the coordinate
change applied to the fixed vector V t in the chart at γ t.
Transport by the differential of a map #
The differential of a map which is C^n at γ t, with 2 ≤ n, carries a tangent field
along γ that is differentiable in local coordinates to a tangent field along f ∘ γ that is
differentiable in local coordinates.
