Answer by John Hughes for Do functions distribute over the wedge product?
It's worth remembering that functions are 0-forms. So when we write $f\omega$, we're really writing $f \wedge \omega$, where $f$ is a 0-form and $\omega$ is a $k$-form, and the product is a (new)...

I am wrapping my head around the arithmetic properties of the wedge product. I understand that constants do distribute over the wedge product, i.e. for $c_1,c_2\in\mathbb{R}$, it...
