Integrability of compactly supported continuous top forms #
A finite open chart cover with compact coordinate bounds controls each local coefficient. Unsigned Jacobian transport then gives integrability on every preferred chart, using only the model's Borel measurable structure. No Hausdorff or orientation assumption on the manifold is needed; a model basis records the actual top degree.
The resulting chart formula characterizes the oriented integral of such forms; on a
finite-dimensional normed space with a constant orientation it is the Haar integral of the
coefficient in a positively oriented basis. On ℝ with its standard orientation
TauCeti.Manifold.Orientation.real it is the Lebesgue integral of the value on 1
(TauCeti.integralTopForm_real_eq_integral).
A compactly supported C0 top form satisfies the canonical integrability predicate. The explicit basis records the degree; the model's Borel structure is used only internally.
Every positive signed preferred-chart coefficient of a compactly supported C0 form is integrable, including when the manifold is nonorientable or non-Hausdorff.
The characteristic equation for compactly supported C0 top forms in a preferred chart. The coefficient uses the actual ordinary manifold pullback; its possible boundary difference from the within-range chart expression is Haar-null.
On a finite-dimensional normed space with a constant orientation, the oriented integral of a compactly supported C0 top form is the integral of its coefficient in any positively oriented basis against that basis's Haar measure.
Against the standard orientation of ℝ, the oriented integral of a compactly supported
continuous 1-form is the Lebesgue integral of its value on the unit vector.
The oriented integral is additive for compactly supported C0 top forms.
On a compact manifold, the oriented integral is additive for C0 top forms.
