The metric completion of the space of vector-valued one-forms

The space of full-ranked one-forms on a smooth, orientable, compact manifold (possibly with boundary) is metrically incomplete with respect to the induced geodesic distance of the generalized Ebin metric. We show a distance equality between the induced geodesic distances of the generalized Ebin metric on the space of full-ranked one-forms and the corresponding Riemannian metric defined on each fiber. Using this result, we immediately have a concrete description of the metric completion of the space of full-ranked one-forms. Additionally, we study the relationship between the space of full-ranked one-forms and the space of all Riemannian metrics, leading to quotient structures for the space of Riemannian metrics and its completion.
