I want to learn the theory of a function from Rn -> Rm in its full generality, i.e. n and m are not merely restricted to 2 or 3 but can be more than that. I am curious to know how the concept of curl would generalize and what its physical interpretation might be etc. Can you please suggest a book or books that will help me. Thank you.
You (possibly) want to learn about differential forms. Flanders' book (called, I think, 'Differential Forms') is quite nice, and available from Dover. I'm sure that googling will give you plenty of material, too. .
