- What exactly is a differential? - Mathematics Stack Exchange
The right question is not "What is a differential?" but "How do differentials behave?" Let me explain this by way of an analogy Suppose I teach you all the rules for adding and multiplying rational numbers Then you ask me "But what are the rational numbers?" The answer is: They are anything that obeys those rules Now in order for that to make sense, we have to know that there's at least
- What is a differential form? - Mathematics Stack Exchange
70 can someone please informally (but intuitively) explain what "differential form" mean? I know that there is (of course) some formalism behind it - definition and possible operations with differential forms, but what is the motivation of introducing and using this object (differential form)?
