Abstract
It is shown that the curvature operators of a connection colligation may be included in a natural way in an operator colligation. This operator colligation is called the curvature colligation. As an application it is shown that if several operators are included in an operator colligation, then all their commutators may be included in a natural way in a new operator colligation. In particular a notion of the commutator of two operator colligations is obtained.
