Abstract

The principal bundles of the first order coframes and the second order coframes, as well as factor bundle of centroprojective (coaffine) coframes are considered. In the bundle of linear coframes a connection is given with the help of the field of connection object. The torsion and curvature tensors of this linear connection are determined. Special connections are singled out: torsion-free, curvature-free. The space of a linear connection devoid of torsion and curvature is an affine group, that served as the basis for classical name «affine connection». Under the specializations of a manifold, strong and weak projectivity conditions was introduced, which make it possible to single out the cof­ra­me bundles. The connections in these principal bundles are called strong and weak projective connections. In the case of symmetric linear connection, when the torsion is absent, the object of classic projective connection is considered. Connec­tion forms are introduced and their structure equations are found. Hence it follows that classic projective connection is neither fundamental-group nor linear differential-geometric. It is proved, that the curvature object of this connection forms a quasitensor together with the connection object only. It is shown, that classic projective connection degenerates into diffe­rent from the original linear connection on the image of a section of some homogeneous bundle.
