Similar definitions can be given for other pairs of indices. As the term "part" suggests, a tensor is the sum of its symmetric part and antisymmetric part for a given pair of indices, as in

A shorthand notation for anti-symmetrization is denoted by a pair of square brackets. For example, in arbitrary dimensions, for an order 2 covariant tensor
1312:{\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}M_{}&={\frac {1}{2!}}\,\delta _{ab}^{cd}M_{cd},\\T_{}&={\frac {1}{3!}}\,\delta _{abc}^{def}T_{def}.\end{aligned}}}
