Okay, you can look at the GNU Emacs manual section for the "kbd" macro.
This way looks fairly straight forward.
http://www.gnu.org/s/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Key-Sequences.html#Key-Sequences
I can't find the vector notation clearly discussed in the GNU Emacs manual.
I know it from XEmacs and just always preferred it. As far as I can tell,
it works the same in GNU Emacs.
You can read more about key sequence vectors in the XEmacs manual:
http://www.gnu.org/s/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Key-Sequences.html#Key-Sequences
A note about your original question, the "^" prefix to skip-chars-backward
is discusses in the doc string (well it links to skip-chars-forward, and
discusses it there). The doc string of functions and variables is a great
way to explore Emacs.
