Calculate Christoffel Symbol: Textbook Guide

[CASPIDE]

Friends,

I wish indicate to me a textbook that teaches you calculate in detail the symbol of Christoffel (undergraduate or graduate level in physics).

Thank You for your help!

You could try chapter 3 of Sean Carroll's lecture notes on GR:

Kk, thank you... but I even searched for books, and I think the following book is a good suggestion for consultation:

Einstein's Theory: A Rigorous Introduction for the Mathematically Untrained
by Øyvind Grøn, Arne Næss

few authors solve exercises related to Christoffel Symbols ... I think it's out of laziness !Best regards.

thank you.

I think one of our regular posters (bcrowell?) has a treatise on GR in which he solves for the Christoffel symbols.
