Abstract

We interpret tensors on a smooth manifold M as differential forms over a graded commutative algebra called the algebra of iterated differential forms over M. This allows us to put standard tensor calculus in a new differentially closed context and, in particular, enriches it with new natural operations. Applications will be considered in subsequent notes.
