Abstract
This chapter contains fundamental results from exterior algebra, differential calculus and integration theory that will be used in the sequel. The statements of these results have been collected here so that the reader won’t have to hunt for them in other books. Proofs are generally omitted; the reader is referred to [Car71], [Dix68] or [Gui69].
