Please, anyone tell me how to proof this equation:

{R^\rho}_{\sigma\mu\nu} = \partial_\mu\Gamma^\rho_{\nu\sigma}<br /> - \partial_\nu\Gamma^\rho_{\mu\sigma}<br /> + \Gamma^\rho_{\mu\lambda}\Gamma^\lambda_{\nu\sigma}<br /> - \Gamma^\rho_{\nu\lambda}\Gamma^\lambda_{\mu\sigma}

Given a definition of parallel transport here :

dV^{m}=-\Gamma^{m}_{np}V^{n}dx^{p}

You need also the definition of the Riemann curvature tensor.
