Compute Christoffel symbols of sphere by embedding

I want to further explain why I care about this issue. I want to compute curvature by embedding. Consider $\{x_{n+1}>0 \}$ \begin{equation*} \left\{\begin{aligned} & y_1=x_1\\ &\vdots \\ …

Compute Christoffel symbols of sphere by embedding

In his answer V. Semeria, starts by taking $$(y_1,\dots,y_{n+1})=\left(x_1,\dots,x_n,\sum_{i=1}^{n+1}x_i^2 -R^2\right)$$ Write $(\vec{e}_1,\dots,\vec{e}_{n+1})$ the canonical basis of $\mathbb{R}^{n+1 …
