O'Neill's tensors are mathematical constructs used to analyze Riemannian submersions, providing a framework to understand the relationship between the geometry of a total space and its base space. They help capture how curvature and geometric properties transfer from one manifold to another, especially in the context of projections onto lower-dimensional spaces. This is particularly useful in studying the behavior of geometric structures under submersions, connecting various aspects of differential geometry.
congrats on reading the definition of O'Neill's Tensors. now let's actually learn it.
