1 Introduction
In
teaching
differential calculus of severalvariables,
mathematicians areexpected
to exhort freshmen orsophomores majoring
inscience, engi- neering
etc. to understand that it is notpartial
derivatives but total differentials that are of intrinsicmeaning,
whilepartial
derivatives areused for
computational
purposes. If we want to discuss notonly
first-order total differentials but
higher-order
ones, we have to resort to thetheory
ofjets
initiatedby Ehresmann, though
it is not easy togeneral-
ize it
beyond
the scope of finite-dimensional smooth manifolds so as to encompass differentiable spaces and suitable infinite-dimensional man-ifolds,
for which the reader isreferred,
e.g., to Navarro and Sancho de Salas[8]
and Libermann[6].
The then moribund notion of
nilpotent
infinitesimals in differentialgeometry
was retrievedby
Lawvere in the middle of thepreceding
cen-tury,
while Robinson revived invertible infinitesimals inanalysis,
andGrothendieck authenticated
nilpotent
infinitesimals inalgebraic
geom-etry.
Kock[2, 3], following
the new directions in differentialgeometry
enunciatedby
Lawvere assynthetic differential geometry (usually
ab-breviated to
SDG),
hasinvestigated
differential calculus from this noblestandpoint
as the foundations of SDG. For readable textbooks onSDG,
the reader is referred to Kock
[4],
Lavendhomme[5]
andMoerdijk
andReyes [7].
Kock
[3]
has shown that the infinitesimal spaceDn
captures n-th order differential calculus. To showthis,
he had toexploit
the factthat another infinitesimal space D n = D x ... x D
(the product
of ncopies
ofD)
has agood
grasp of n-th order differential calculus. Inour
previous
paper(Nishimura [13])
we have demonstratedthat, given
microlinear spaces
M, N
with x E M andy E N,
n-th order total differentials can becaptured
as a certain kind ofmappings
from thetotality TDnx(M)
of D"-microcubes on M at x to thetotality T Dn (N)
of D"-microcubes on N at y, which were called n-th order preconnec- tions there and are to be called
D n-tangentials
here. In this paper we propose anothergeneralization
of n-th order total differentials as a cer- tain kind ofmappings
from thetotality TxDn(M)
ofDn-microcubes
onM at x to the
totality TDn(N)
ofDn-microcubes
on N at y, which areto be called
Dn-tangentials.
Then westudy
therelationship
betweenDn-tangentials
andDn-tangentials, firstly
in case that coordinates arenot available
(i.e.,
M and N aregeneral
microlinear spaces without further conditionsimposed)
andsecondly
in case that coordinates are available(i.e.,
M and N are formalmanifolds).
In the former case we have a naturalmapping
fromDn-tangentials
intoDn-tangentials,
whilein the latter case the natural
mapping
is shown to bebijective.
Sincewe have shown in our
previous
paper that our notion ofDn-tangentials
is a
generalization
of Ehresmann’s classical notion ofjets,
this meansthat not
only Dn-tangentials
but alsoDn-tangentials
are ageneraliza-
tion of
jets.
Our ideas will bepresented
within our favorite frameworkof
synthetic
differential geometry, butthey
arereadily applicable
tosuch
generalizations
of smoothmanifolds
as differentidble spaces and suitable infinite-dimensional manifolds with due modifications. This paper is to be looked upon as a microlineargeneralization
of Kock’s[3] perspicacious
considerations onTaylor
series calculus. The exactrelationship
betweenD n-tangentials
andDn-tangentials
in thegeneral setting,
besides mere existence of a canonicalmapping
from the former to thelatter,
remains an openproblem
for thecompetent
andinspired
reader. Last but not
least,
wegladly acknowledge
our indebtedness to the anonymousreferee,
who has made many constructivesuggestions,
without which the paper would not have been
completed.
2 Preliminaries
2.1
Microcubes
Let R be the extended set of real numbers with
cornucopia
ofnilpotent infinitesimals,
which isexpected
toacquiesce
in the so-calledgeneral
Kock axiom
(cf.
Lavendhomme[5, p.42].
We denoteby Dl
or D thetotality
of elements of R whose squares vanish. Moregenerally, given
anatural number n, we denote
by Dn
the setGiven natural numbers m, n, we denote
by D(m)n
the setwhere
il, ..., in+1
shall range over natural numbers between 1 and mincluding
both ends. We will often writeD(m)
forD(m)1. By
con-vention
Do
=Do
=101.
Apolynomial
p of d EDn
is called asimple polynomial
of d EDn
if every coefficient of p is either 1 or0,
and if the constant term is 0. Asimple polynomial
p of d EDn
is said to be of dimension m, in notation
dim(p)
= m,provided
thatm is the least
integer
withpm+1 =
0.By
way ofexample, letting
d E
D3,
we havedim(d)
=dim(d
+d2)
=dim(d
+d3)
= 3 anddim(d2)
=dim(d3)
=dim(d2 + d3)
= 1.Simplicial infinitesimal
spaces are spaces of the formwhere S is a finite set of sequences
(i1,- - -, ik)
of natural numbers with 1 il ... ik m. Asimplicial
infinitesimal spaceD(m; S)
is said to be
symmetric
if{d1, ..., dm)
ED (m; S)
and (J" E6m
al-ways
imply (du(I),
...,do(m))
ED(m; S).
Togive
anexample
of sim-plicial
infinitesimal spaces, we haveD(2) = D(2; (1,2))
andD(3) = D(3;(1,2),(1,3),(2,3)),
which are allsymmetric.
The number m is called thedegree
ofD(m;S),’
in notation: m =degD(m; S),
whilethe maximum number n such that there exists a sequence
(i1, ..., in)
of natural numbers of
length n
with 1 il ... in mcontaining
no
subsequence
in S is called the dimension ofD(m; S),
in notation:n =
dimD(m; S). By
way ofexample, degD(3) = degD(3; (1, 2)) - degD(3; ( 1, 2), (1, 3))
=degd3
=3,
whiledimD(3)
=1, dimD(3; (1, 2)).
dimD(3; (1,2), (1,3)) =
2 anddimD3 -
3. It is easy to see that ifn =
dimD(m; S),
thendl
+ ...+dm
EDn
for any(dl,
...,dm)
ED(m; S).
Infinitesimal spaces of the form Dm are called basic
infinitesimals
spaces.Given two
simplicial
infinitesimal spacesD(m; S)
andD(m’; S’),
a map-ping p= (p1, ..., pm’): D(m; S) --> D(m’; S’)
is called a monomialmapping
if every is a monomial indl,
...,dn
with coefficient 1.Given a microlinear space M and an infinitesimal space
E,
a map-ping,
from E to M is called an IE-microcube on M. Dn-microcubesare often called n-microcubes. In
particular,
1-microcubes areusually
called
tangent
vectors, and 2-microcubes are often referred to as mi- crosquares. We denoteby TE (M)
thetotality
of E-microcubes on M.Given x E
M,
we denoteby TEx(M)
thetotality
ofE-nfcrocubes q
onM with
Y(0, ..., 0)
= x.We denote
by Gn
thesymmetric
group of theset (I, .. ,n },
whichis well known to be
generated by
n - 1transpositions i,
i + 1 >exchanging
i andi + 1 ( 1 i n - 1 )
whilekeeping
the other elementsfixed. Given a E
Gn and Y
ET Dnx (M),
we defineE,
ET Dnx (M)
tobe
for any
(d1, ...,dn)
e Dn. Given a 6 ?and Y
ETDnx (M),
we definea .YE TDnx (M) (1in) to be
for any
(d1, ..., dn)
E Dn. Given a E 1Rand,
eTDnx (M),
we definesaY E
TDnx (M) (1i n)
to befor any d E
Dn.
The restrictionmapping
Tl- (M)
is often denotedby i n+ 1 ,n.
Between here are 2n+ 2 canonical map-
pings :
For any , we define
for any For any we define 4
TD"(M)
to befor any
(d1,
...,dn)
E Dn. Theseoperations satisfy
the so-calledsimpli-
cial identities
(cf.
Goerss and Jardine[1, p.4]).
For any, E
TIn (M) and any d
EDn, we define id (Y)
ETDnx+(M)
tobe
for
any d’
EDn+1.

The
following
theorem willplay a predominant
role in this paper.Theorem 6
Any simplicial infinitesimal space Z of
dimension n is thequasi-colimit of
afinite diagram
whoseobjects
areof
theform Dk’s (01n)
and whose arrows are naturalinjections.
Proof. Let
O=D(m; S).
For any maximal sequence 1il
...ik m of natural numbers
containing
nosubsequence
in S(maximal
in the sense that it is not a proper
subsequence
of such asequence),
we have a natural
injection
ofDk
into ’1).By collecting
all suchD"s together
with their naturalinjections
into’1),
we have anoverlapping representation
of ’1) in terms of basic infinitesimal spaces. This represen- tation iscompleted
into aquasi-colimit representation
of Zby taking D, together
with its naturalinjections
intoDkl
andDk2
for any two basicinfinitesimal spaces
Dkl
andDk2
in theoverlapping representation of Z,
where if
Dkl
andD’2
comefrom
the sequences 1ii
...k1
mand
1i1
i1...ik2...ik2m in
the above manner, thenDl together
withits natural
injections
intoDkl
andDk2
comes from the maximal commonsubsequence 12...7il m of
both thepreceding
sequences of natural numbers in the above manner.By
way ofexample,
the methodleads to the
following quasi-colimit representation ofD==D(3)2:
In the above
representation ijk’s
andij’s
are as follows:1. the
j-th
and k-thcomponents
ofijk(d1, d2) E D(3)2
ared1
andd2
respectively,
while theremaining
component is0;
2. the
j-th
component ofij (d)
ED 2
isd,
while the other component is 0.D
The
quasi-colimit representation
of 0depicted
in theproof
of theabove theorem is called standard.
Generally speaking,
there are mul-tiple
ways ofquasi-colimit representation
of agiven simplicial
infini-tesimal space.
By
way ofexample,
twoquasi-colimit representations
of
D(3; (1,3), (2, 3)) (= (D
xD)
VD)
weregiven
in Lavendhomme[5, pp.92-93], only
the second onebeing
standard.2.3
Convention
Unless stated to the
contrary,
M and N are microlinear spaces withxEMandyEN.
3 The First Kind of Tangentials
Let n be a natural number. A
Dn-pseudotangential
from(M, x)
to(N, y)
is amapping
f :T Dnx (M) --> T°" (N)
such that for any y ET Dn x(M) ,
any a E R and any o, EGn,
we have thefollowing:
We denote
by jn(M,
x;N, y)
thetotality
ofDn-pseudotangentials
fromWe have the canonical
protection
so that
for any and any For any nat-
ural numbers n, m with m n, we define
Tn,m: jn (M, x; N, y)
-->to be
Interestingly enough,
anyDn-pseudotangential naturally gives
riseto what
might
be called aD-pseudotangential
for anysimplicial
infini-tesimal
space 2)
of dimension less than orequal
to n.Theorem 7 Let n be a natural number. Let Ð be a
simplicial infinitesi-
mal space
of
dimension less than orequal to
n.Any Dn-pseudotangential
f
from (M, x) to (N, y) naturally
induces amapping fD: TDx(M)-->
TDy (N) abiding by
thefollowing
condition:for
any a E R and any y ETDy(M). If
thesirrzPlicial infinitesimal
spaceÐ is
symmetric,
the inducedmapping acquiesces
in the
following
conditionof symmetry
besides the above one:Proof. For the sake of
simplicity,
we dealonly
with the case that1)
=D(3)2,
for which the standardquasi-colimit representation
wasgiven
in the
proof
of Theorem 6.Therefore, giving 7
ETDx (3)2 (M)
isequiva-
lent to
giving
withd2(y23)
andd1(,13)
=d1(,23). By Proposition
1.3 of Nishimura[13],
we have
which determines a
unique fD(3)2 (y) E TD y(3)2 (N) with d1 (fD(3)2 (y))=
f(y23), d2(fD(3)2(y))
=f(y13)
andd3(fD(3)2(y))
=f(y12).
Theproof
thatfD(3)2 acquiesces
in the desired twoproperties
issafely
left to the reader.D
Remark 8 The reader should note that the induced
mapping f1) is
de-fined
in termsof
the standardquasi-colimit representation of D.
Theconcluding corollary of
this section will show that the inducedmapping f1)
isindependent of our
choiceof a quasi-colimit representation of D to
a
large extent,
whether it is standard ornot, as long as
f is notonly
aDn-pseudotangential
but also aD"-tangential (to
bedefined just below).
We note in
passing
thatTn,m(f)
’with m n is no other thanfDm.
The notion of a
D"-tangential
from(M, x)
to(N, y)
is defined induc-tively
on n. The notion of aDO-tangential
from(M,x)
to(N, y)
andthat of a
D1-tangential
from(M,x)
to(N, y)
shall be identical with that of aD°-pseudotangential
from(M, x)
to(N, y)
and that of aD1- pseudotangential
from(M, x)
to(N, y) respectively.
Now weproceed by
induction. A
Dn+1-pseudotangential
f :TDn+1x(M)-> TDn+1 y (N) from
(M,x)
to(N, y)
is called aDn+1-tangential
from(M,x)
to(N,y)
if itacquiesces
in thefollowing
two conditions:1.
’1Tn+l,n(f)
is aDn-tangential
from2. For any -y E
TDnx (M),
we haveWe denote
by Jn(M, x; N, y)
the totality of Dn-tangentials fromBy
the very definition of aDn-tangential,
theprojec-
tion is
naturally
restrictedto a
mapping Similarly
forProposition
9 LetL, M,
N be microlinear spaces with x EL,
y E M and z E N.If
f is aDn-tangential from (L, x)
to(M, y)
and g is aD n-tangential from (M, y)
to(N, z),
then thecomposition
g o f is a Dn-tangential from , and
provided
that n > 1.Proof. In case of n =
0,
there isnothing
to prove. It is easy to seethat if f is a
D"-tangential
from(L, x)
to(M, y)
and g is aDn-tangential
from
(M, y)
to(N, z),
then thecomposition
g o f satisfies conditions(1)
and
(2).
For any ETDnx (M),
if f is aDn+1-tangential
from(L,x)
to(M, y)
and g is aDn+1-tangential
from(M, y)
to(N, z),
we havewhich
implies
that Therefore wehave
which
implies
that thecomposition
g o f satisfies condition(3).
Now wecan prove
by
induction on n that7rn+l,n(g
of)
is aDn-tangential
from(L, x)
to(N, z),
so that it is aDn+1-tangential
from(L, x)
to(N,z)..
The
following simple proposition
mayhelp
the reader understand where our locution ofDn-tangential
hasoriginated.
Proposition
10 LetM,
N be microlinear spaces with x E M and y E N.If f
is amapping from (M, x)
to(N, y),
then theassignment oj f
o y ETn(N)
toeach,
ETnx (M),
denotedby Dn f
and called the Dn-prolongation of f,
is aDn -tangential from (M, x)
to(N, y).
We haveIf
L is another microlinear space with z E L and g is amapping from (N, y)
to(L, z),
then we have .Proof. It is easy to see that
Dn f
abidesby
conditions(1)
and(2).
Trivially
Forany I E
Tnx (M),
we havewhich
implies
thatDn+1 f
abidesby
condition 3 for any natural numbern .
By
dint ofagain,
we can proveby
inductionon n that

fromWith due
regard
to Theorem7,
we have thefollowing far-flung
gen- eralization ofProposition
1.5 of Nishimura[13]:
Theorem 11 Let f be a
Dn -tangential from (M, x)
to(N, y).
Let 0and 1)’ be
simplicial infinitesimal
spacesof
dimension less than orequal

Let x
be a monomialmappings from 0
to 1)’.Let y

Then we have
Remark 12 The reader should note that the above
far-flung generaliza-
tion
of Proposition

Nishimura[13]
subsumes notonly Proposition
1.5
of
Nishimura[13] (subsuming (2)
and(3))
but alsoProposition
1.3of
Nishimura[13].
Proof. In
place
ofgiving
ageneral proof
with formidablenotation,
we
satisfy
ourselves with an illustration. Here we dealonly
with thecase that Z =
D3,
1)’ =D(3)
andfor any
(dl, d2, d3)
ED3, assuming
that n > 3. We note first that the monomialmapping x : D3 ---+ D(3)
is thecomposition
of two monomialmappings
X1: D3--> D(6;(1,2),(3,4),(5,6)
and
X2: D (6; (1,2), (3,4), (5,6)) -*D (3)
with
X1(d1,d2,d3) = (d1, d1, d2, d2, d3, d3)
for any(d1, d2, d3)
ED3
andX2 (dl, d2, d3, d4, ds, d6)
=(d1 d3, d2 d5, d4 d6)
for any(d1, d2, d3, d4, d5, d6) E D(6; (1,2), (3,4), (5,6)),
while the former monomialmapping
X, :D3-->
D(6; (1,2), (3, 4), (5,6))
is in turn thecomposition
of three monomialmappings
and with

hand,
wehave
where I is the
unique
function with 1and J Thus we have
established
(4). By
the sametoken
we can establish(5)
and(6).
Inorder to prove
(7),
it suffices to note thattogether
with the seven similar identities obtained from the aboveby replacing i135 by
seven otherijkl: D3--> D(6; (1, 2), (3, 4), (5, 6))
in thestandard
quasi-colimit representation
ofD(6; (1, 2), (3, 4), (5, 6)),
whereis a
mapping
with

andd3

j-th,
k-th and 1-thpositions respectively,
while the other compo- nents are fixed at0).
Itsproof
goes as follows. Sinceit suffices to show that
However the last
identity
follows at onceby simply observing
that themapping
X2 0i135 : D3-> D(3)
is themapping
which is the successive
composition
of thefollowing
threemappings:
Corollary
13 Let f be ann-tangential from (M, x)
to(N, y).
Let 0be a
simplicially infcnitesimal
spacesof

Any
nonstandardquasi-colimit representation of 0, if
anymapping
into Z in the
representation is monomial,
induces the samemapping
as
fv (induced by
the standardquasi-colirnit representation of D) by
themethod in the
proof of
Theorerra 7.Proof. It suffices to note
that
for any
mapping X :

nonstandardquasi-colimit representation
ofÐ,
which followsdirectly
from the above theorem. o4 The Second Kind of Tangentials
Let n be a natural number. A
Dn-pseudotangential
from(M, x)
to(N, y)
is amapping f : T Dnx (M) -> TDny (N)
such that for any I ETDn(M)
and any a ER,
we have thefollowing:
We denote
by Jn(M, x; N, y)
thetotality
ofDn-pseudotangentials
from
(M, x)
to(N, y).

f be

The notion of a
Dn-tangential
from(M, x)
to(N, y)
is defined induc-tively
on n. The notion of aDo-tangential
from(M, x)
to(N, y)
andthat of a
Dl-tangential
from(M, x)
to(N, y)
shall be identical with that of aDo-pseudotangential
from(M, x)
to(N, y)
and that of aDi- pseudotangential
from(M, x)
to(N, y) respectively.
Now weproceed by
induction on n. A

from

to(N, y)
is called aDn+1-tangential

Proposition 19,
it suffices to show that§3n(f)

Here we dealonly
with the case that n = 3and the
simple polynomial
p at issue is d ED3 -->
d2E D, leaving
thegeneral
treatmentsafely
to the reader. Sincefor any

ED3,
we have thefollowing
commutative dia- gram :where +D3 :
D3 --> D3
and+D(6) : D(6) -
D stand for addition of components. Then we havewhich
implies by Proposition

mapping
isnaturally
restricted to a
mapping
(6 The Relationship between the Two
Kinds of Tangentials with Coordinates
The
principal objective
in this section is to show that themapping
is
bijective
for any natural num-ber n in case that coordinates are available. We will assume that M and N are formal manifolds of dimensions p and q
respectively.
Sinceour considerations to follow are
always infinitesimal,
this means that wecan assume without any loss of
generality
that M = RP and N = JRq.We will let i with or without
subscripts
range over natural numbers between 1 and p(including endpoints),
while we willlet j
with orwithout
subscripts
range over natural numbers between 1and q (in-
cluding endpoints).
Let x =(xi) and y
=(yi).
For any natural num- ber n, we denoteby Jn(p, q)
thetotality
ofelements of R such that
at...ik’s
aresymmetric
with
respect
tosubscripts, i.e.,
for any a E6k
(2 k n).
Therefore the number ofindependent components
inThe canonical
projection
is denoted
by
7rn+l,n. We will use Einstein’s summation convention to suppress E.In our
previous
paper[13]
we have defined a naturalmapping 0n :
Jn(p,q)
-In(M,x;N,y),
which was shown to bebijective (cf.
Theo-rem 3.7 of
[13)).
We denote thecomposition On
o pnby
1Yn :7n (p, q)
-->jn(M,
x;N, y).
It is of the formwhere the last E is taken over all
partitions
of thepositive integer
r intopositive integers
r1, ..., rk(so
that r = ri + ... +rk)
with r1 ... rk-Now we are
going
to definemappings
Wn:Jn (M,x; N, y)
-jn (p, q) by
induction on n such that thediagram
is commutative. The
mapping
be the trivial one.
Assuming
that Wndefined,
we aregoing
to definefor which it
suffices, by
therequired commutativity
of the above dia- gram,only
togive aJi1 ... in+1

Let ei denote(0, ..., 0,1,0, ..., 0)
ERP,
where 1 is inserted at the i-thposition,
whilethe other p - 1 elements are fixed zero.
By
thegeneral
Kock axiom(cf.

where mi is the number ofik’s

we have
Proposition
23 For any j we have It is easy to see thatProposition
24 Thecomposition
Wn o wn is theidentity mapping oj :rn(p, q).
Proof.
Using
the commutativediagram
we can
easily
establish the desired resultby
induction on n.This means in
particular
that themapping : jn (M,x;N,y)
-Jn(M,
x;N, y)
isinjective.
To show itssurjectivity, simple
dimensioncounting
will sufficeby
dint of the aboveproposition.
Let’s note thefollowing plain proposition,
which maybelong
to the folklore.Proposition

x;N, y)

and thelast E is taken over all
partitions of

that r = ri + ... +rk)
with ri ... C rkProof.
By
the same token as in theproof
ofProposition
11 ofLavendhomme
[5,
Section1.2].
Proposition
26 The dimensionof Jn(M, x; N, y)
is less than orequal
to
that Jn (M, x; N, y).
Proof. The dimension
of Jn(M, x; N, y),
which can be calculatedeasily by
the aboveproposition,
islarger
than that ofJn (M, x; N, y).
By
way ofexample,
the dimension ofJ2(M, x; N, y)
isq(p2+2 2)
+(p - 1)q,
while that ofJ2(M, x; N, y)
isq(p+2+2) -
q. In order to reduce thedimension of
jn(M,
x;N, y)
to that ofJ)’n(M,
x;N, y),
which isexpected
to coincide with that of
Jn(M,
x;N, y),
we have to take the condition(9)
into consideration. In case of n =2,
it suffices to consider the condition for d eD2 --> d2
E D. In case of n =3,
it suffices toconsider the condition for d E
D3
H d2E D,
d ED3
-->d3
E D and d ED3
-->d + d2

Thegeneral
case issafely
left to the reader..Theorem 27 The
mapping
isbijective.
Proof. This follows
