The Pullback Equation for Differential Forms

by Olivier Kneuss, Bernard Dacorogna, Gyula Csat, et al.

An important question in geometry and analysis is to know when two k-forms f and g are equivalent through a change of variables. The problem is therefore to find a map φ so that it satisfies the pullback equation: φ*(g) = f.

In more physical terms, the question under consideration can be seen as a problem of mass transportation. The problem has received considerable attention...
