1: Structured Description

Here is the rules of Structured Description.

Entities:
$M$: $\in \{\text{ the }d\text{ -dimensional }{C}^{\mathrm{\infty }}\text{ manifolds with boundary }\}$
$m$: $\in M$
$(U_m\subseteq M,{\varphi }_m)$: $\in \{\text{ the charts for }M\text{ around }m\}$
$(U_m^{\prime }\subseteq M,{\varphi }_m^{\prime })$: $\in \{\text{ the charts for }M\text{ around }m\}$
$\{\partial /\partial x^j|j\in \{1,...,d\}\}$: $=\text{ the standard basis for }{T}_{m}M$ by $(U_m\subseteq M,{\varphi }_m)$
$\{\partial /\partial x^{\prime j}|j\in \{1,...,d\}\}$: $=\text{ the standard basis for }{T}_{m}M$ by $(U_m^{\prime }\subseteq M,{\varphi }_m^{\prime })$
//

Statements:
$\mathrm{\forall }v=v^j\partial /\partial x^j=v^{\prime j}\partial /\partial x^{\prime j}\in T_{m}M(v^{\prime j}=\partial x^{\prime j}/\partial x^l{v}^l)$
//

$x^{\prime }$ as a function of $x$ is ${\varphi }_m^{\prime }\circ {{\varphi }_m}^{-1}{|}_{{\varphi }_m(U_m\cap U_m^{\prime })}:{\varphi }_m(U_m\cap U_m^{\prime })\to {\varphi }_m^{\prime }(U_m\cap U_m^{\prime })$.

2: Proof

Whole Strategy: Step 1: see that $\partial /\partial x^{\prime j}=\partial x^l/\partial x^{\prime j}\partial /\partial x^l$; Step 2: apply the proposition that for any finite-dimensional vectors space, the transition of the components of any vector with respect to any change of bases is this.

Step 1:

$\partial /\partial x^{\prime j}=\partial x^l/\partial x^{\prime j}\partial /\partial x^l$, by the proposition that for any $C^{\mathrm{\infty }}$ manifold with boundary and the tangent vectors space at any point, the transition of the standard bases with respect to any charts is this.

Step 2:

By the proposition that for any finite-dimensional vectors space, the transition of the components of any vector with respect to any change of bases is this, $v^{\prime j}=\partial x^{\prime j}/\partial x^l{v}^l$, because the inverse of the matrix, $\left(\begin{array}{c}\partial x^l/\partial x^{\prime j}\end{array}\right)$, is $\left(\begin{array}{c}\partial x^{\prime m}/\partial x^n\end{array}\right)$, because $\partial x^{\prime m}/\partial x^l{x}^l/\partial x^{\prime j}=\partial x^{\prime m}/\partial x^{\prime j}={\delta }_j^m$.
