On the geometry of combinatorial manifolds

Michael Anthony Penna

Vol. 77 (1978), No. 2, 499–522
Abstract

On a smooth manifold there are classical relations between vector fields and derivations of the smooth function algebra, and between differential forms and alternating linear maps of vector field tuples. In this paper similar relations are obtained for combinatorial manifolds. As an application of these results the existence of connexions and parallel translation on combinatorial manifolds is established.
