Firstly, we define an order for differential forms. Secondly, we also define the supersolution and subsolution of the A-harmonic equation and the obstacle problems for differential forms which satisfy the A-harmonic equation, and we obtain the relations between the solutions to A-harmonic equation and the solution to the obstacle problem of the A-harmonic equation. Finally, as an application of the obstacle problem, we prove the existence and uniqueness of the solution to the A-harmonic equation on a bounded domain Ω with a smooth boundary ∂Ω, where the A-harmonic equation satisfies d⋆A(x,du)=0,x∈Ω; u=ρ,x∈∂Ω, where ρ is any given differential form which belongs to W1,p(Ω,Λl-1).
