Abstract

If X is a manifold and Y a submanifold, then any differential form on X induces a form on Y. We can view this as a very special case of the inverse image of a form, under the embedding (injection) map

$$id:\;Y\; \to \;X.$$

Throughout the chapter, all manifolds are assumed finite dimensional. They may have a boundary.
