Abstract

We recall the description of natural transformations of semiholonomic jet functors J^r defined on the categories Mf_m x Mf and FM_m_,n. Up to order three, exact coordinate formulae are known, for general order several related results are reminded. We also show an application of semiholonomic jet transformations to prolongation of general connections.
