We develope a difference calculus analogous to the differential geometry by translating the forms and exterior derivatives to similar expressions with difference operators, and apply the results to fields theory on the lattice [Ref. 1]. Our approach has the advantage with respect to other attempts [Ref. 2-6] that the Lorentz invariance is automatically preserved as it can be seen explicitely in the Maxwell, Klein-Gordon and Dirac equations on the lattice.
