    wrote parallel transport (which was previously redirecting to connection on a bundle).

    Also rewrote Dyson formula.

    Great, a separate entry was needed for a while.

    Nice, but it would be even nicer if there was some slick nPOV statement right at the beginning like “Parallel transport is a functor…” or something.

    Okay, I added a section on the functorial description.

    This has now a bit of overlap with the discussion at connection on a bundle, but anyway.

    added also a section on the meaning of parallel transport in physics

    A related new entry geodesic.

    Thanks! I added a sentence briefly relating this back explicitly to parallel transport.

    I've posted my Parallel transport - revisited to the arXiv. Comments still welcome.
    N.B. This is NOT smooth parallel transport, though hopefully the exposition is reasonably so. :-)

    the References-section used to only point to a list of references on my personal web. I have now copied that over to here, and completed some of the publication data
