Lemma 584 (lowered_riemann_pair_symm). source ↗
Pair-symmetry of the lowered Riemann tensor R_{abcd} = R_{cdab} (with R_{pqrs} = ∑α g_{pα}R^α_{qrs}). The classical algebraic consequence of: first-pair antisymmetry (lowered_riemann_antisymm), last-pair antisymmetry (riemann_antisymm), and the first Bianchi identity (riemann_first_bianchi). Proof: sum the Bianchi identity over the four cyclic first-index placements; the cross terms cancel by the antisymmetries, leaving 2(R_{abcd} − R_{cdab}) = 0.
(∀(y:Mn)(ab:Finn),gab(y)=gba(y))→(∀(y:Mn)(ab:Finn),σ∑gaσ(y)⋅gσb(y)=δab)→(∀(ab:Finn),(λy↦gab(y))∈C∞)→(∀(abc:Finn),(λy↦Γbca(y))∈C∞)→∀(abcd:Finn)(x:Mn),α∑gaα(x)⋅Riemggiαbcdx=α∑gcα(x)⋅Riemggiαdabx
Proof. By riemann_antisymm, riemann_first_bianchi, lowered_riemann_antisymm. □

Lemma 585 (ricci_symm). source ↗
Ricci symmetry R_{σν} = R_{νσ} — discharges hric_symm. Write the Ricci tensor as the gi-raised lowered-Riemann trace (ricci_eq_trace), apply the pair-symmetry of the lowered Riemann (lowered_riemann_pair_symm) termwise, then reconcile by Finset.sum_comm + symmetry of gi.
