Iterated Integrals and Higher Order Invariants
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 November 2018
Abstract
We show that higher order invariants of smooth functions can be written as linear combinations of full invariants times iterated integrals. The non-uniqueness of such a presentation is captured in the kernel of the ensuing map from the tensor product. This kernel is computed explicitly. As a consequence, higher order invariants form a free module of the algebra of full invariants.
