comment Vector field pull back from embedding
Ok. Good point. So this "pullback" depends on the choice of $r$.

comment Vector field pull back from embedding
Don't need a preferred base-point I think. To be functorial, it should be enough to show that any choice of the retract gives the same vector field on $M$, but as I said at any $f(m)$ the equation $r\circ f=id_M$ gives $r'_*(x)=r_*(x)$ for any two $r'_*,r_*:T_{f(m)}N \to T_mM$.

If $dim(M)=dim(N)$ then $r=f^{-1}$.

comment Vector field pull back from embedding
Since $r\circ f=id_M$ every choice of $r$ should give the same $r_*$ on $f(m)$. And in the equi-dimensional case this is just the ordinary pullback of a vector field along a diffeomorphism, since embeddings are diffeomorphisms then...

comment Vector field pull back from embedding
So the question is if different choices of $r$ gives different vector fields on $M$.

sorry dude but $r_*$ is a map $T_nN \to T_r(n)M$.

comment Vector field pull back from embedding
So what you say is,that different choices of $r$ gives different vector fields on $M$? Hmm... Can you explain why?

Not a good style to first downtalk like "by the way ... makes no sense" and then not even say, WHY it makes no sense.

comment Vector field pull back from embedding
Ok it requires both the data of $f$ and $r$ and $r$ is not uniquely defined by $f$. But it is a well defined vector field on $M$ at least. Right?

Why has $X_{f(x)}$ to be in the image of $df_x$?

comment Explicit Lie May structure on cosimplicial DG Lie algebras
The proof uses the Lie Eilenberg Zilber operad and doesn't make any reference to the maps I'm after. If one can read the k-ary maps from the action of this operad on the cosimpl. DG Lie algebra, then this is not at all obvious... At least to me.

comment Induced Riemannian metric on Jet-Manifold
Robert, this is not an answer, because you don't give a proof or a reference for a proof. Bad style, not to reply

comment Induced Riemannian metric on Jet-Manifold
You use 1.) the identification $J^1(M,N) \simeq TN \otimes T^*M$ 2.) If $g$ is a metri on $M$,then there are induced metrics on $TM$ and $T^*M$ 3.) There is a metric on $TN \otimes T^*M? Right? -- If yes, the missing link for me is a reference to the construction in 3.

comment Induced Riemannian metric on Jet-Manifold
Thanks. Can you give references for a more in-deep look at the constructions you mentioned? What do you mean by "[..] induce a metric on this bundle [...]". Which bundle? $J^1(M,N)$? Then how can this be done? --You said there are many ways, but given at least one example would be required to qualify as an answer.

Just using the absolute value here sounds a bit arbitrary to me. What's the reason for that and how to generalize?

comment Smooth submanifolds defined by Subrings
For example, I think it is valid to say that the subring of constant functions (i.e. multiples of $1_{C∞(M)}$) is the function ring of the point? It arise as a pullback by the terminal morphism.

comment Smooth submanifolds defined by Subrings
I can't mark it as an answer because, what I actually want to discuss is more about when subrings are smooth function rings by itself. But I must confess, that the title is misleading. It should be called "Smooth Manifolds defined by Subrings" rather. Or is this almost never the case, for reasons I don't see?
