| Recall how we define smooth vector field over $M$: it is an assignment $p \mapsto X(p) \in T_p M$ for $p \in M$, such that if we write it in coordinate patch $(U, (x_i))$, we have | Recall how we define smooth vector field over $M$: it is an assignment $p \mapsto X(p) \in T_p M$ for $p \in M$, such that if we write it in coordinate patch $(U, (x_i))$, we have | ||
