Fubini's Theorem, but $dxdy = -dydx$

$begingroup$


As differential $2$-forms, clearly $dxdy=-dydx$ by alternation. Yet just as clearly, $int_0^1 int_0^1 dxdy neq -int_0^1 int_0^1 dydx$. Where's the abuse of notation here?

$(x,y)mapsto(y,x)$ is an orientation-reversing map of the plane to itself.
For orientation-reversing maps one has to introduce a minus sign factor in the
change of variables:
$$int_0^1int_0^1,dxwedge,dy=-int_0^1int_0^1-,dywedge,dx
=int_0^1int_0^1,dywedge,dx.$$

    Expanding upon Lord Shark's answer: remember that when changing coordinate systems, you need to introduce the determinant of the Jacobian of the coordinate transformation. In your case, the Jacobian is



    $$
    J(x,y) = begin{bmatrix}
    frac{partial y}{partial x} & frac{partial x}{partial x} \
    frac{partial y}{partial y} & frac{partial x}{partial y}
    end{bmatrix}
    =begin{bmatrix} 0 & 1 \ 1 & 0 end{bmatrix} , ,
    $$

    whose determinant is $-1$. Therefore,
    $$
    int_0^1 int_0^1 dx wedge dy = int_0^1 int_0^1 det(J(x,y)) , (-dy wedge dx) = int_0^1 int_0^1 dy wedge dx
    $$



    As Lord Shark pointed out, any orientation-reversing transformation will have a Jacobian whose determinant is $-1$.
