Integral of a Differential Form over an Oriented k-Sub-Rectangle in Euclidean Space
definitionAnalysisGeometryMultivariable Calculusdef:integral-form-oriented-k-sub-rectangle-euclidean-2026bLet with , let be an oriented -sub-rectangle of , let be open with , and let be a continuous differential -form on . Choose data as in Oriented k-Sub-Rectangle of Euclidean Space, so that for a standard -rectangle
and active coordinate indices . Write in the coordinate expansion from Coordinate Expansion of Differential Forms on Euclidean Open Sets. Let be the coefficient function of the basis form
For each fixed , define
where this is the one-dimensional Riemann integral on ; it exists because the integrand is continuous on , hence Riemann integrable. Recursively, for each and each fixed , define
again in the one-dimensional Riemann sense of Riemann Integrability on a Closed Interval, whenever the integrand is viewed as a function of alone. The integral of over is defined by
Equivalently,
with the right-hand side understood through the recursive construction above.
