c
Using the stated convention for the Riemann curvature tensor, the first independent component is
Rrϕrϕ​​=∂r​Γϕϕr​−Γϕrϕ​Γϕϕr​=−(cosh2r+sinh2r)+cosh2r=−sinh2r​.​
(1)
The other is
Rϕrϕr​​=−∂r​Γrϕϕ​−Γrϕϕ​Γϕrϕ​=csch2r−coth2r=−1​,​
(2)
using the hyperbolic Pythagorean identity coth2r−csch2r=1. Antisymmetry in the final two indices supplies the components with those indices reversed. These are the curvature of the two-dimensional hyperbolic polar metric components.
