Abstract
This paper provides an introduction to the algebra and geometry of differential operators and jet bundles. Its point of view is guided by the leitmotiv that higher-spin gravity theories call for higher-order generalizations of Lie derivatives and diffeomorphisms. Nevertheless, the material covered here may be of general interest to anyone working on topics where geometrical (coordinate-free, global, generic) and mathematically rigorous definitions of differential operators are required.
