Bundle Maps Over A Common Base

Let πE:E→ M and πF:F→ M be fiber bundles over a space M. Then a bundle map from E to F over M is a continuous map φ:E→ F such that . That is, the diagram

should commute. Equivalently, for any point x in M, φ maps the fiber Ex = πE−1({x}) of E over x to the fiber Fx = πF−1({x}) of F over x.

Famous quotes containing the words bundle, maps, common and/or base:

    “In the quilts I had found good objects—hospitable, warm, with soft edges yet resistant, with boundaries yet suggesting a continuous safe expanse, a field that could be bundled, a bundle that could be unfurled, portable equipment, light, washable, long-lasting, colorful, versatile, functional and ornamental, private and universal, mine and thine.”
    —Radka Donnell-Vogt, U.S. quiltmaker. As quoted in Lives and Works, by Lynn F. Miller and Sally S. Swenson (1981)

    “And now good morrow to our waking souls,
    Which watch not one another out of fear;
    For love all love of other sights controls,
    And makes one little room an everywhere.
    Let sea-discoverers to new worlds have gone,
    Let maps to other, worlds on worlds have shown,
    Let us possess one world; each hath one, and is one.”
    —John Donne (1572–1631)

    “All the courses of my life do show
    I am not in the roll of common men.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “The base emotions Plato banned
    have left a radio-active and not radiant land.”
    —Libby Houston (b. 1941)
