separated jet; canonical exchange; natural transformation
Summary:
Given a map of a product of two manifolds into a third one, one can define its jets of separated orders $r$ and $s$. We study the functor $J$ of separated $(r;s)$-jets. We determine all natural transformations of $J$ into itself and we characterize the canonical exchange $J\rightarrow J^{s;r}$ from the naturality point of view.
