Let n,k∈N with 1≤k≤n, let U⊆Rn be open, let ω be a C1 differential (k−1)-form on U, and fix strictly increasing indices
1≤i1<⋯<ik≤n.
Write ω in the coordinate expansion from Coordinate Expansion of Differential Forms on Euclidean Open Sets as
ω=1≤j1<⋯<jk−1≤n∑aj1…jk−1dxj1∧⋯∧dxjk−1.
For each r∈{1,…,k}, let Ir^ denote the increasing (k−1)-tuple obtained from (i1,…,ik) by omitting ir, and let aIr^ be the corresponding coefficient function. Then the coefficient of
dxi1∧⋯∧dxik
in the coordinate expansion of dω from Exterior Derivative of a C^1 Differential Form on a Euclidean Open Set is
r=1∑k(−1)r−1∂xir∂aIr^.
