For a vector : ##\nabla_a V^b=\partial _a V^b+T^b_{ac}V^c##
I am trying to derive for a covector: ##\nabla_a w_b=\partial _a w_b+T^c_{ab}w_c##
I am told to use the Leibniz Rule and the definition that for a scalar ##f## : ##\nabla_a f =\partial_a f ## to do so
My thoughts:
Define ##w_b## through the ##\nabla ## function: ##w_b##= ##\nabla _b f ##
And I'm not sure what my next move should be.
Many Thanks for any help in advance !
