Fiber-Wise Linear Differential Operators

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We define a new notion of fiber-wise linear differential operator on the total space of a vector bundle E. Our main result is that fiber-wise linear differential operators on E are equivalent to (polynomial) derivations of an appropriate line bundle over East. We believe this might represent a first step towards a definition of multiplicative (resp. infinitesimally multiplicative) differential operators on a Lie groupoid (resp. a Lie algebroid). We also discuss the linearization of a differential operator around a submanifold.
