Manifolds and Riemannian geometry with a bundle viewpoint
I was wondering if there are any books that builds the theory on manifolds and Riemannian geometry, but at the same time treats these subjects in the general case of bundles (similar to Jeffery Lee's ...

Parallel transport on a vector bundle : expansion of the correspondance between normal and tubular coordinates
Let $(M, g^{TM})$ be a Riemannian manifold of dimension $n$. Let $X \subset M$ be a submanifold of dimension $n$ with boundary $\partial X$. Then we have a splitting of the tangent bundle
$$TM \vert_{\...

Covariant Derivative of sections of a pullback bundle
Suppose that we have two smooth manifolds $M$ and $N$ and a smooth mapping $\phi : M \rightarrow N$. The Differential of that smooth mapping induces a bundle map $D\phi : TM \rightarrow TM$ between ...

Splitting Short exact sequences of vector bundle with connection
Let $F\to M$ be a vector bundle and $E\subseteq F$ a subbundle. Suposse that $\nabla$ is a connection on $F$ s.t. preserves $E$, i.e. $\nabla_X(e)\in \Gamma E \quad \forall e\in \Gamma E, \ X\in\Gamma ...
