Differential k-Form on an Open Subset of Euclidean Space

Statement

Let n∈Nn\in\mathbb{N}, let U⊆RnU\subseteq \mathbb{R}^n be open, and let k∈N∪{0}k\in\mathbb{N}\cup\{0\}. A differential kk-form on UU is an assignment ω\omega which to each point x∈Ux\in U assigns an alternating kk-linear form ωx\omega_x on Rn\mathbb{R}^n. For vectors v1,…,vk∈Rnv_1,\dots,v_k\in\mathbb{R}^n, the value of ω\omega at xx on (v1,…,vk)(v_1,\dots,v_k) is denoted by

ωx(v1,…,vk).\omega_x(v_1,\dots,v_k).

When k=0k=0, this means exactly that a differential 00-form on UU is a real-valued function on UU.
