  1. We recall that an exact sequence (say, of modules) is split if NMQ. A splitting of the exact sequence is a morphism i: QN such that poi = Id; the existence of at least one of such a morphism is apparently equivalent to the splitness of the sequence. Let us also notice that in ordinary differential geometry all exact sequences of smooth vector bundles do split, due to the existence of smooth partitions of unity [Hus]. 2 In view of Proposition I.2.2, the sequence (1.3) can also be written and is therefore obtained from (1.2) by tensoring with.
