TL;DR: In this paper, the conditions for fundamental singularities when the bundle homomorphism is induced from a Morin map were studied, where the tangent distribution is the contact structure and the singularities were characterized by using the Hamilton vector fields.
Abstract: We consider bundle homomorphisms between tangent distributions and vector bundles of the same rank. We study the conditions for fundamental singularities when the bundle homomorphism is induced from a Morin map. When the tangent distribution is the contact structure, we characterize singularities of the bundle homomorphism by using the Hamilton vector fields.

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that on a 4-manifold M endowed with a spin-structure induced by an almost-complex structure, a self-dual spinor field φ ∈ Γ(W) is the same as a bundle morphism φ : TM → TM acting on the fiber by selfdual conformal transformations, such that the Clifford multiplication is just the evaluation of φ on tangent vectors.
Abstract: We show that, on a 4-manifold M endowed with a spin -structure induced by an almost-complex structure, a self-dual (= positive) spinor field φ ∈ Γ(W) is the same as a bundle morphism φ : TM → TM acting on the fiber by self-dual conformal transformations, such that the Clifford multiplication is just the evaluation of φ on tangent vectors, and that the squaring map σ : W → Λ acts by pulling-back the fundamental form of the almost-complex structure. We use this to detect Kähler and symplectic

TL;DR: In this article , the authors define the Mus-Gradient metric on tangent bundle $TM$ by a deformation non-conform of Sasaki metric over an n-dimensional Riemannian manifold.
Abstract: This paper, we define the Mus-Gradient metric on tangent bundle $TM$ by a deformation non-conform of Sasaki metric over an n-dimensional Riemannian manifold $(M, g)$. First we investigate the geometry of the Mus-Gradient metric and we characterize a new class of proper biharmonic maps. Examples of proper biharmonic maps are constructed when all of the factors are Euclidean spaces.
