For and a general symmetric jet , the tensor is

The remaining entries follow by symmetry.

Proof. Apply (eq:covdiag)–(eq:covoff) to (eq:Qmatrix). A compact form of the resulting identity is

where is the contravariant matrix with and all other entries zero. Both sides are linear in . Substitution of the ten symmetric component jets, using the complete quadratic contraction tables, proves this polynomial identity. Expanding its diagonal and off-diagonal entries gives (eq:Ktable).

For additional explicit arithmetic checks, the next lemma evaluates three component jets directly.
