Riemannian Geometry as a Field Over Another Geometry

The basic tensors of a Riemannian geometry are found in terms of tensor components by considering the geometry as a field over another arbitrary Riemannian geometry. The approach exhibits symmetries not previously noted. In particular the Riemann tensor of a geometry is found to decompose into a...
