General Relativity/Stoke's theorem

< General Relativity

Stokes' Theorem states that if there is an n-dimensional orientable manifold \mathcal{M} with boundary \partial\mathcal{M}, and if there is a form \omega (with compact support) defined on the manifold, then the following is true:

\int_{\mathcal{M}}d\omega = \int_{\partial\mathcal{M}}\omega
