Mathematics and Physics (a) an algebra (algebra n. 2b) consisting of the quotient algebra T(V)/I (where T(V) is the tensor algebra of a vector space V and, for every x in V, I is the two-sided ideal generated by all elements of the form x ⊗ x), and in which the exterior product is taken as the product operation; (also) any of several analogous algebras based on structures other than vector spaces; (b) the branch of algebra concerned with the study and applications of exterior algebras and exterior products.The exterior algebra of a vector space V is typically denoted by Λ(V).Exterior algebras are useful in physics in the study of fermions and supersymmetry, and more generally in the area of differential geometry.

Mathematics and Physics the mathematical operation that maps any two elements a and b of a given algebraic structure (such as a module or vector space) to the coset a ⊗ b + I, where a ⊗ b is the tensor product of the two vectors and I is the two-sided ideal generated by all elements of the form x ⊗ x; (also) the quantity produced by this operation.The exterior product of a and b is denoted a ∧ b and has the property that a ∧ b = −(b ∧ a).
