Tensor calculus and deformation theory on on a local Lie group

arXiv:1104.5332

Abstract

Historically tensor calculus emerged in an attempt to formalize Rie- mann's ideas. We show that tensor calculus can be based also on Lie's idea of a transformation group and this approach leads quite naturally to the concept of deformation of a transformation group and the Kodaira- Spencer map.
