Abstract

In this brief review we make some remarks on an interesting mathematical method which is, in our opinion, wrongfully undervalued. In many physics textbooks, the Cartan formalism is not explained and students who specialize in another branch of physics or mathematics, do not know the formal elegance of this approach. The aim of this short note is to stimulate curiosity, and it wants to be a starting point to explore this topic. © 2014 Elmo Benedetto.
