A question about the coordinate expression of the Weyl tensor

103 Views Asked by At

The Weyl tensor is defined as the traceless component of the curvature tensor.

So should $$W_{abcd}=R_{abcd}-\frac{1}{n^2}g^{pr}g^{qs}R_{pqrs}g_{ac}g_{bd}$$

The coordinate expression, given here for instance, is very different from this. But I feel that the trace of the above would also be $0$.
