Abstract
In this section we give a short introduction to Cartan connections and define their holonomy groups. In particular, we explain the relation to holonomy groups of principal fibre bundle connections and to holonomy groups of covariant derivatives in associated vector bundles. Details can be found in [KN63], [Sh97] and [Ba09].
