Title
Connections from trivializations
Authors ,
Abstract
Let P be a principal fiber bundle with the basis M and with the structural group G. A trivialization of P is a section of P. It is proved that there exists only one gauge natural operator transforming trivializations of P into principal connections in P. All gauge natural operators transforming trivializations of P and torsion free classical linear connections on M into classical linear connections on P are completely described.
