    Let MM be a \reftext{def:smooth-manifold-with-boundary-2026a}{smooth manifold with boundary} of dimension nn, and let (U,ฯ†)(U,\varphi) and (V,ฯˆ)(V,\psi) be charts in the chosen smooth atlas. We say that these charts are positively compatible if either UโˆฉVโˆฉintโก(M)=โˆ…,U\cap V\cap \operatorname{int}(M)=\varnothing, or else the following condition holds. For every point xโˆˆฯ†(UโˆฉVโˆฉintโก(M)),x\in \varphi\bigl(U\cap V\cap \operatorname{int}(M)\bigr), consider any local smooth extension F:Wโ†’Wโ€ฒF:W\to W' of the transition map ฯˆโˆ˜ฯ†โˆ’1\psi\circ\varphi^{-1} at xx that is furnished by the smooth-compatibility condition from \ref{def:smooth-compatible-charts-upper-half-space-2026a}. Then detโกJF(x)>0,\det J_F(x)>0, where the Jacobian determinant is the one from \ref{def:jacobian-determinant-euclidean-open-set-2026a}. This condition is independent of the chosen local extension, because xx lies in the interior of the half-space chart image and any two such extensions agree on an open neighborhood of xx in Rn\mathbb{R}^n.
