    In this paper we develop the geometry of bounded Fr\'echet manifolds. We prove that a bounded Fr\'echet tangent bundle admits a vector bundle structure. But the second order tangent bundle T2MT^2M of a bounded Fr\'echet manifold MM, becomes a vector bundle over MM if and only if MM is endowed with a linear connection. As an application, we prove the existence and uniqueness of the integral curve of a vector field on MM

    In this paper we prove an infinite-dimensional version of Sard's theorem for Fr\'{e}chet manifolds. Let M M and N N be bounded Fr\'{e}chet manifolds such that the topologies of their model Fr\'{e}chet spaces are defined by metrics with absolutely convex balls. Let f:M→N f: M \rightarrow N be an MCk MC^k-Lipschitz-Fredholm map with k > \max \lbrace {\Ind f,0} \rbrace . Then the set of regular values of f f is residual in N N
