For twice continuously differentiable coordinate functions and an outer scalar function , apply the multivariable chain rule twice along an original coordinate . The first three terms differentiate the outer function, while the last two differentiate the coordinate coefficients. They cannot be omitted for a nonlinear coordinate map. In matrix notation this is the Hessian matrix formula for . The extra terms vanish for an affine map.
