local structure of free $\mathbb{R}$ actions

Such a theorem is proved for completely regular spaces $X$ in my article: On the Existence of Slices for Actions of Non-Compact Lie Groups, Richard S. Palais, The Annals of Mathematics, Second Series …

Geometry and Integrability in Other Bundles

Note that for the tangent bundle you do NOT need a connection to define the exterior derivative on the dual bundle---the cotangent bundle. If you follow your prescription in the case that $E$ is the t …

Does a *topological* manifold have an exhaustion by compact submanifolds with boundary?

Doesn't this depend on the definition of "manifold". If the only condition is being locally Euclidean, then there are connected non second countable examples (e.g., the "long line") for which the answ …
