necessary to consider the second bundle. The curvature form of our connection is a tensorial quadratic differential form in , of [[../Bijective/|type]] and with values in the [[../TopologicalOrder2/|Lie Algebra]] of . Since the Lie algebra of is a subalgebra of , there is a natural projection of into the quotient space . The image of the curvature form under this projection will be called the torsion form or the torsion [[../Tensor/|tensor]]. If the forms in (13) define a -connection, the vanishing of the torsion form is expressed analytically by the conditions \quad We proceed to derive the analytical [[../Formula/|formulas]] for the theory of a -connection without torsion in the tangent bundle. In general we will consider such formulas in . The fact that the G-connection has no torsion simplifies (13) into the form By taking the exterior derivative of (23) and using (18), we get where we put For a fixed value of we multiply the above equation by getting or
\noindent Since the infinitesimal transformations are linearly independent, this implies that It follows that is of the form where are Pfaffian forms. Substituting these expressions into (24), we get It follows that Since has the property , the above equations imply that
