Tensor Calculus
by Taha Sochi
Publisher: viXra 2016
Number of pages: 91
Description:
These notes are the second part of the tensor calculus documents. We continue the discussion of selected topics of the subject at a higher level expanding, when necessary, some topics and developing further concepts and techniques. The present notes are essentially based on assuming an underlying general curvilinear coordinate system.

Symbolic Tensor Calculus on Manifolds: a SageMath Implementation
by Eric Gourgoulhon, Marco Mancini - arXiv.org
These lecture notes present a method for symbolic tensor calculus that runs on fully specified smooth manifolds (described by an atlas), that is not limited to a single coordinate chart or vector frame, and runs even on non-parallelizable manifolds.
