Nonholonomic tangent spaces: intrinsic construction and rigid dimensions

A nonholonomic space is a smooth manifold equipped with a bracket generating family of vector fields. Its infinitesimal version is a homogeneous space of a nilpotent Lie group endowed with a dilation which measures the anisotropy of the space. We give the intrinsic construction of these infinitesimal objects and classify all rigid (i.e. not deformable) cases.
