    I am about to write something at jet bundle and elsewhere about the general abstract perspective.

    In chapter 2 of Beilinson-Drinfeld’s Chiral Algebras they have the nice characterization of the Jet bundle functor as the right adjoint to the forgetful functor F:Scheme𝒟(X)Scheme(X) from D-schemes over X to just schemes over X.

    Now, since D-modules on X are quasicoherent modules on the de Rham space Πinf(X), I guess we can identify

    Scheme𝒟(X)

    with

    Schemes/Πinf(X)

    and hence the forgetful functor above is the pullback functor

    F(E)EXΠinf(X)

    aling the lower canonical morphism (“constant infinitesimal path inclusion”).

    This would mean that we have the following nice general abstract characterization of jet bundles:

    let H be a cohesive (infinity,1)-topos equipped with infinitesimal cohesion HHth. For any XX we then have the canonical morphism i:XΠinf(X).

    The Jet bundle functor is then simply the corresponding base change geometric morphism

    Jet:=(i*i*):H/XH/Π(X)

    or rather, if we forget the 𝒟-module structure on the coherent sheaves on the jet bundle, it is the comonad i*i* induced by that.

    Does that way of saying it ring a bell with anyone?

    Sorry, the math does not display.
