Aug 2, 2011 at 18:16 comment added Pietro Majer Actually I've always considered Eells-Elworthy's result as a source of big simplifications... I wish I had something similar in my kitchen ;)
Jan 18, 2010 at 19:45 comment added Andrew Stacey Might be worth doing one day ... anyway, I'd not heard of Henderson before and it was well worth my while looking him up on MathSciNet - some very interesting stuff there that I should take a close look at. Thanks for mentioning his work to me!
Jan 18, 2010 at 3:44 comment added Ryan Budney Ah, looking more closely at the literature from that time it appears there were several people getting similar results for various flavours of infinite-dimensional manifolds: Hilbert, Banach, Frechet with various other restrictions tossed-in. Jim West and some other names pop up. I'd have to spend more time to sort out who proved what when.
Jan 5, 2010 at 9:44 comment added Andrew Stacey I'd always thought that (1) was Eells and Elworthy (1970), though perhaps that was the Banach generalisation. (2) is attributed to Omori and de la Harpe (1972). (My source is the introduction to Kriegl and Michor's book.)
Jan 4, 2010 at 15:17 comment added Ryan Budney Result (1) is David Henderson's, originally. What's a reference for (2)?
