    Understanding Tangent Space Basis: Proving Intuitively

    first of all thanks a ton both of u...JG89 and Bacle... @JG89...i know very little about patches ...i am using Barrett O'Neill...but the content of ur post is pretty clear...however can this be done without bringing in patches??... also..by Bacle's statement...shudnt it be dx\left\langle...

    Understanding Tangent Space Basis: Proving Intuitively

    I am unable to understand as to how the basis for the tangent space is \frac{\partial}{\partial x_{i}}. Can this be proved ,atleast intuitively? Bachman's Forms book says that if co-ordinates of a point "p" in plane P are (x,y), then \frac{d(x+t,y)}{dt}=\left\langle 1,0\right\rangle...
