This module supplies the coordinate basis vectors, rays, and partial derivative operators required for tensor calculus on pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. It is imported by the covariant derivative, curvature, and discrete-bridge modules that assemble the Einstein tensor from lattice J-cost. All content consists of direct definitions with no proof obligations.

claimThe module defines the standard basis $e_\mu$, the coordinate ray function, the first partial derivative $\partial_\mu$, the second derivative, the Laplacian, and the linear derivative addition rule on tensor fields.

background

The module lives inside the relativity calculus layer and imports only the tensor geometry definitions. Its sibling declarations introduce the objects that later modules use to write $\nabla_\rho T^\lambda_{\mu\nu} = \partial_\rho T^\lambda_{\mu\nu} + \Gamma^\lambda_{\rho\sigma} T^\sigma_{\mu\nu} - \dots$. The upstream Tensor module is explicitly marked scaffolding and is excluded from the certificate chain.

proof idea

This is a definition module, no proofs.

why it matters in Recognition Science

The declarations feed the covariant-derivative and curvature modules that construct the Christoffel symbols and the Levi-Civita connection; those in turn supply the Ricci scalar and Einstein tensor inside the discrete-to-continuum bridge that converts lattice J-cost into the Einstein field equations.
