Abstract
The paper is a survey of some results about Weil algebras applicable in differential geometry, especially in some classification questions on bundles of generalized velocities and contact elements. Mainly, a number of claims concerning the form of subalgebras of fixed points of various Weil algebras are demonstrated.
