Geometric properties of involutive distributions on graded manifolds

1997

AbstractA proof of the relative version of Frobenius theorem for a graded submersion, which includes a very short proof of the standard graded Frobenius theorem is given. Involutive distributions are then used to characterize split graded manifolds over an orientable base, and split graded manifolds whose Batchelor bundle has a trivial direct summand. Applications to graded Lie groups are given.
