Bundle Maps Over A Common Base

Let πE:EM and πF:FM be fiber bundles over a space M. Then a bundle map from E to F over M is a continuous map φ:EF 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 at least you know

    That maps are of time, not place, so far as the army
    Happens to be concerned—the reason being,
    Is one which need not delay us.
    Henry Reed (1914–1986)

    Man that is born of woman hath but a short time to live, and is full of misery. He cometh up, and is cut down, like a flower; he fleeth as it were a shadow, and never continueth in one stay.
    —“Burial of the Dead,” first anthem, Book of Common Prayer (1662)

    For those who are base in judgement do not know the good they hold in their hands until they cast it off.
    Sophocles (497–406/5 B.C.)
