Smooth Diffeomorphism of Euclidean or Half-Space Domains, Jacobian, and Pullback
definitionGeometryMultivariable Calculusdef:smooth-diffeomorphism-euclidean-half-space-domain-2026cLet and let be admissible domains in Euclidean space in the sense of Continuous n-Form, Support, and Zero Extension on a Euclidean or Half-Space Domain.
A smooth diffeomorphism is a bijection with the following two properties.
- For every there exist open sets with and , and a smooth map such that for every .
- The analogous local smooth extension condition holds for the inverse map at every point of .
For , the Jacobian matrix of at is the Jacobian matrix of a local smooth extension of at as in property 1; by Jacobian Matrix of a Local Smooth Extension on an Admissible Domain this matrix exists and does not depend on the choice of .
We say that is orientation-preserving if for every the determinant of satisfies
Finally, let . For , let be an assignment which to each point assigns an alternating -linear form on . The pullback is the assignment which to each assigns the alternating -linear form given by
for all vectors , where is the matrix-vector product. For we use the convention, consistent with Differential k-Form on an Open Subset of Euclidean Space, that an assignment of alternating -linear forms on is a real-valued function , and the pullback is defined by
for every .
