Abstract
Consider a distribution of a plane in a projective space. A way of defining a plane affine Stolyarov connection associated with this distribution is proposed. It is set by the field of a connection object consisting of a connection quasitensor and a linear connection object. The object of this generalized affine connection defines torsion and curvature objects. We show that these objects are tensors. Conditions under which a plane affine Stolyarov connection is torsion-free or curvature-free are described. It is proved that the generalized affine connection with the connection quasitensor is the generalized Kronecker symbol degenerated into a linear connection.
