Description

A formal treatment of the parallel translation transformations in warped product manifolds is presented and related to those parallel translation transformations in each of the factor manifolds. A straightforward application to the Schwarzschild and Reissner-Nordstroem geometries, considered here as particular examples, explains some apparently surprising properties of the holonomy in these manifolds
