Abstract
The geometry of the total space of the tangent bundle to a smooth manifold is very rich. It contains a lot of geometrical objects of theoretical interest and of a great importance in constructing of various geometrical models useful in Physics. For the similar reasons the geometry of the total space of a vector bundle was intensively studied in the last fifteen years.
