The Classification Problem for 2-Forms in Four Variables
Year: 2018
Type: preprint
Abstract: The notion of type of a differential 2-form in four variables is introduced and for 2-forms of type < 4, local normal models are given. If the type of a 2-form $Ω$ is 4, then the equivalence under diffeomorphisms of $Ω$ is reduced to the equivalence of a symplectic linear frame functorially attached to $Ω$. As the equivalence problem for linear parallelisms is known, the present work solves generically the equivalence problem under diffeomorphisms of germs of 2-forms in 4 variables.
