Wedge product of forms

Summary

The wedge product combines a kk-form and an ll-form into a (k+l)(k + l)-form. It is bilinear and alternating, and it encodes signed areas and volumes. It makes the differential forms on a set into an algebra.

What this node needs for W1
  • an inventory row: the row of the inventory that the node accounts for (0 of 1)

The writing levels say how complete the text of a node is. They do not measure its truth.

What this needs

To read this node, read these 2 nodes in this order. The foundations come first, and the list ends with this node.

Each node uses the nodes above it. The colour of the bar on a box shows the evidence level, and the box also gives it as text. The list below has the same nodes.
