We know how objects such as the metric tensor and the Cristoffel symbol have symmetry to them (which is why g12 = g21 or [itex]\Gamma[/itex]112 = [itex]\Gamma[/itex]121)
Well I was wondering if the Riemann tensor Rabmv had any such symmetry. Are there any two or more particular indices that I could interchange and still get the same answer? If so, that will save me so much time when deriving these Riemann tensors.
