Sep 19, 2011 at 0:26 comment added september @Deane: Thank for your answer. I tried to find some natural local triviality for the vector bundles in the examples, but was not successful. After posting this question and seeing your answer, I thought a little more and found the local trivialities.

Sep 18, 2011 at 1:06 comment added Deane Yang I view this question as a good exercise for someone learning the subject. Many of us had to sort this out when we were students, and it was a useful experience in sorting out the definitions. The point is that with your definitions, you can write down a basis of sections on appropriately chosen open sets and then you can figure out how two different bases are related on the intersection of two such open sets.

Sep 18, 2011 at 0:05 comment added september @David: Thanks for fixing Latex. For the open cover we can choose for example the usual cover by the sets $U_i=\{z_i\not= 0\}$. You are right, so my question should be this: How can we write a local trivial for the vector bundle in Question 2? The same for Example 1, assuming that we start from zero, not knowing that $J$ is isomorphic to $[-H]$.
Sep 17, 2011 at 23:57 comment added David Roberts I fixed the latex. What do you mean by 'the transition matrix' for example 2? The transition functions depend on the choice of open cover. They also depend on a choice of local trivialisation. There is in general no abstract technique. 'Some description' is not a very helpful starting point.
