Local trivialization refers to the property of a fiber bundle, where for every point in the base space, there exists a neighborhood such that the fiber bundle looks like a product space in that neighborhood. This concept is crucial in understanding how tangent vectors and tangent spaces behave as we move through the manifold, providing a way to 'glue' local information together to form a global picture.
congrats on reading the definition of local trivialization. now let's actually learn it.
