A derivation of the Stokes theorem
Motivated by electrodynamics we discuss a derivation of the Stokes theorem which is based on the variations of the fluxes and line integrals of vector fields. We show how this procedure can be extended to higher rank tensors in the context of the explicitly Lorentz invariant equations of electromagn...
