comment Subspace of Skew-symmetric Matrices of Rank Four
You are right. I'm referring to linear subspace. Let me modify the question so as to avoid the confusion.

comment Subspace of Skew-symmetric Matrices of Rank Four
I do not understand one point. You mentioned that $E_4(5)=10$. Let us take $S:=e_1\wedge\mathbb{R}^5$. Then, S is a subspace of $5\times 5$ skew-symmetric matrices that has trivial intersection with $E_4(5)$. This implies that dimension of $E_4(5)$ has to be less than or equal to 10-4=6.

comment Classical Derivative, Weak Derivative and Integration by Parts
Let me say it again: I'm sorry for the confusion. I have had the impression that the term "weak derivative" is used when the distributional derivative is a $L^1_{loc}$ function. I thought that this is a standard convention but, as it seems, I'm wrong.

@Robert Bryant: Thank you. Connectedness is an assumption here. Re-edited accordingly.

comment PDE with the Jacobian Determinant
@Ryan budney: What you are talking about is the problem with prescribed divergence which is essentially the linearized version of the problem with prescribed Jacobian.

Thanks again. Thank a lot. I'm not familiar with representation theory. It will take me some time to understand your counterexample fully. Is there any direct counterexample that constructs the subspace explicitly?

comment A Question on Exterior Forms
Note that, your example is not the right one. For $\omega_{+}$,$\omega_{-}$ both cannot be in $N$ as $\omega_{+}+\omega_{-}=2dx_1\wedge dy_1$ which is decomposable whereas $N$ cannot contain non-zero decomposable forms.

comment Inequalities Involving Wedge Product (Reference Request)
Unfortunately, we do not have the linear independence of $\omega_1^2, \omega_2^2$ and $\omega_1\wedge \omega_2^2$. What we have is that $$ (\alpha\omega_1+\beta\omega_2)^2\neq 0,\text{ for all }\alpha,\beta\neq 0. $$ In this case, is there any way to guaranty that the open set passes through the region?
