English
The absolute value of the volume form applied to a vector-valued n-tuple is bounded by the product of the norms of the vectors.
Русский

/-- Let `v` be an indexed family of `n` vectors in an oriented `n`-dimensional real inner
product space `E`. The output of the volume form of `E` when evaluated on `v` is bounded in absolute
value by the product of the norms of the vectors `v i`. -/
