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)

    The peace of God, which passeth all understanding.
    —Bible: New Testament St. Paul, in Philippians, 4:7.

    The words are also used in the Book of Common Prayer, Holy Communion (1662)

    When a man speaks the truth in the spirit of truth, his eye is as clear as the heavens. When he has base ends, and speaks falsely, the eye is muddy and sometimes asquint.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
