Reconciling some result about the exponential map, the Chow-Rashevskii theorem, and $\mathrm{Diff}_0(M)$
Let $M$ be a $C^{\infty}$ manifold $C^{\infty}$-diffeomorphic to $\mathbb{R}^d$. I've recently come across some results which I'm trying to reconcile. Let $\mathfrak{X}(M)$ denote the set of ...

Representation on square integrable sections of a principal bundle
Let $X\rightarrow Y$ be a smooth principal $G$-bundle for some Lie group $G$. Then $L^2(X)$ has a natural $G$-action determined by fibrewise action of $G$ on $X$.
We have an abstract isomorphism of ...
