      The \(n\)th order covariant derivative on a smooth manifold with affine connection is a differential operator which maps a function to a tensor field of type \((0,n)\). In the paper under review, the properties of this operator related to the permutations of indices are investigated. The author made use or non-associative algebra. The general formula for commutation relations of this kind is also obtained.
