A note on jet and geometric approach to higher order connections

Result description

We compare two ways of interpreting higher order connections. The geometric approach lies in the decomposition of higher order tangent space into the horizontal and vertical structures while the jet-like approach considers a higher order connection as the section of a jet prolongation of a fibered manifold. Particularly, we use the Ehresmann prolongation of a general connection and study the result from the point of view of geometric theory. We pay attention to linear connections, too.
