wherein μ μ 1 … … μ μ j are indices that span the number of variables, that is, here they go from 1 to 2. Here summation over the μ μ 1 … … μ μ j indices is only over μ μ 1 ≤ ≤ μ μ 2 ≤ ≤ … … ≤ ≤ μ μ j in order to avoid counting the same partial derivative multiple times, for example f 12 = f 21 appears only once in the previous equation.
