The passage around this formula
Define the network’s curvature-diagnosing observable directly from this result, restoring physical units through the relation between coordinate acceleration and proper time for a static observer, . a symmetric rank-two tensor in the local spatial frame of the static observers, with units of inverse time squared — the Eötvös units already standard in gravity-gradient surveying, where 1\, = 10^{-9}\, . Under a rotation of the local spatial axes it transforms as an ordinary rank-two tensor; under a change of which node is used as the additive reference for it is unchanged, because it depends only on derivatives of , never its value; and up…

Addition combines quantities; subtraction measures the signed difference between them. Parentheses show what is combined before the rest of the expression is evaluated.
