Category:Examples of Fiber Bundles

This category contains examples of Fiber Bundle.

Let $M, E, F$ be topological spaces.

Let $\pi: E \to M$ be a continuous surjection.

Let $\UU := \set {U_\alpha \subseteq M: \alpha \in I}$ be an open cover of $M$ with index set $I$.

Let $\pr_{1, \alpha}: U_\alpha \times F \to U_\alpha$ be the first projection on $U_\alpha \times F$.

Let there exist homeomorphisms:

$\chi_\alpha: \map {\pi^{-1} } {U_\alpha} \to U_\alpha \times F$

such that for all $\alpha \in I$:

$\pi {\restriction}_{U_\alpha} = \pr_{1, \alpha} \circ \chi_\alpha$

where $\pi {\restriction}_{U_\alpha}$ is the restriction of $\pi$ to $U_\alpha \in \UU$.

Then the ordered tuple $B = \struct {E, M, \pi, F}$ is called a fiber bundle over $M$.
