In Morse theory, \textit{local gluing} means to glue local neighborhoods around the critical point of the stable and unstable manifolds to gradient flow lines. Traditionally, the local gluing map can be written down explicitly when the Riemannian metric is locally Euclidean, but in the non-Euclidean case, it requires an intricate version of the implicit function theorem.\N\NThis paper proposes a functional analytic approach, working within infinite-dimensional path spaces and interpret stable and unstable manifolds as submanifolds of path spaces. The advantage is that many techniques can be generalized to infinite dimensional Morse theory, for instance, Floer theory.\N\NThe ideas and technical cores are clearly explained in Section 1.
