| 41. | Contact forms are particular differential forms of degree 1 on odd-dimensional manifolds; see contact geometry.
|
| 42. | This product can be understood as induced by the exterior product of differential forms in de Rham cohomology.
|
| 43. | An exterior derivative of differential forms in differential geometry is an example of such a morphism having negative degree.

| 44. | Be a differential form and a differentiable-manifold over which we wish to integrate, where has the parameterization
|
| 45. | The restriction of the Lie derivative to the space of differential forms is closely related to the exterior derivative.
|
| 46. | A Cartan connection is a way of formulating some aspects of connection theory using differential forms and Lie groups.
|
| 47. | From the differential forms and the exterior derivative, one can define the de Rham cohomology of the manifold.
|
| 48. | Furthermore, the linear functional version of a multivector that computes this volume is known as a differential form.
|
| 49. | The converse statement of the gradient theorem also has a powerful generalization in terms of differential forms on manifolds.
