The affine connection in the normal coordinates

A. V. Gavrilov

Siberian Independent Institute, Novosibirsk, Russia

Abstract: We propose a method to calculate the derivatives of the Christoffel symbols in the normal coordinates on a smooth manifold with symmetric affine connection. As an application, we construct an algorithm for computing the Taylor series of the double exponential map.

Key words: affine connection, normal coordinates, composition of exponential maps.
