We write down a geometric realization of the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) extended by $n_f$ flavours light sterile neutrinos, so-called geo$\nu$SMEFT. As with geoSMEFT introduced Helset, Martin and Trott, we show that refactorization $\nu$SMEFT's operator product expansion is possible, such two- three-point composite forms are dressed field-space connections composed towers Hig...
