Given by contraction of vectors with forms. This term, the main text is Morita's Geometry of Differential forms. This is my attempt to explain the concept of a differential form in differential geometry and several variable calculus; which I view as an extension of the concept of the signed integral in single variable calculus. N -plectic geometry is a generalization of symplectic geometry to higher category theory. Unlike MTW it is very much focused on coordinate-dependent calculations, and does not use differential forms. In the language of differential geometry, the elements of \mathrm{Alt}^d(G) are smooth sections of \Lambda^d( T^* G ) , or in other words, top-degree differential forms on G . DG - Clifford Algebra / Differential Forms in Differential Geometry is being discussed at Physics Forums. Caltech | Fall 2012 Ultimately we'll interpret the symbol \(\wedge\) (pronounced “wedge”) as a binary operation on differential forms called the wedge product. Let X be a smooth manifold, ω ∈ Ω n + 1 ( X ) a differential form. Euclidean geometry was abandoned in favour of di erential geometry and classical eld theories had to be quantized. CS 177: Discrete Differential Geometry. I'll also refer the interested reader to another classic text on cohomology, namely Bott and Tu's, Differential Forms in Algebraic Topology. I also own a copy of Wald's textbook, as well as Carroll's "Spacetime and Geometry". A homework from one of the most wonderful classes I've ever taken, Differential Geometry, taught by a brilliant and lovely man, Dr.
