Greek indices m,n .. denote Space-Time and run from 0 (time) to 3.
Latin indices i,j,k .. denote Space and run from 1 to 3 (x y and z).
Note indices ALWAYS balance in equations and there is difference between upper and lower indices
  • For Instance matrix M ij is inverse of matrix M ij.
Again M ij M jk = d i k is Expression of Inverse Condition
