Cohomology of the variational complex in the class of exterior forms of finite jet order

We obtain the cohomology of the variational complex on the infinite-order jet space of a smooth fiber bundle in the class of exterior forms of finite jet order. In particular, this provides a solution of the global inverse problem of the calculus of variations of finite order on fiber bundles.
