When is a family of submanifolds locally diffeomorphic to a family of planes? (Q1312809)

On an \(n\)-dimensional manifold \(B\) let a family of \(k\)-dimensional submanifolds \(B_ \xi\) parametrized by a connected manifold \(\Gamma\) be given. Definition: We say that a family of \(k\)-dimensional submanifolds of a domain \(U\) rectifies to the \(m\)th order if for any \(x\in U\) there exists a diffeomorphism \(f\) of a neighborhood of \(x\) onto a domain of \(\mathbb{R}^ n\) identifying the manifold of \(m\)-jets of submanifolds of this family at \(x\) with an open domain in the manifold of \(m\)-jets of \(k\)-dimensional planes at \(f(x)\). The main result of this paper is the proof of the following Theorem: If a family \(\Gamma\) of \(k\)-dimensional submanifolds for \(k>1\) of an \(n\)-dimensional manifold \(B\) rectifies to the second order, then it is locally diffeomorphic to a family of \(k\)-planes in \(\mathbb{R}^ n\).
