Problem 11. Given the form written in the \( x \) -coordinates (i.e., the \( {X}_{i} \) ) and the change of variables formulas \( \mathbf{x} = \mathbf{x}\left( \mathbf{y}\right) \), write the form in \( y \) -coordinates, i.e., find \( Y \) .

Problem 10. Show that the boundary of the boundary of any chain is zero: \( \partial \partial {c}_{k} = 0 \) .
Hint. By the linearity of \( \partial \) it is enough to show that \( \partial \partial D = 0 \) for a convex polyhedron \( D \) .

In general, if a chain \( {c}_{1} \) represents the boundary of a region \( G \) (Figure 154), then \( {\int }_{{c}_{1}}{pdq} \) is equal to the area of \( G \) with sign + or - depending on whether the pair of vectors (outward normal, oriented boundary vector) has the same or opposite orientation as the pair ( \( p \)...
