RingElement * VectorInWidth -- multiply an element of a free OI-module by a ring element

Operator: *
Usage:

r * f
Inputs:
- r, a ring element,
- f, an instance of the type VectorInWidth,
Outputs:
- an instance of the type VectorInWidth,

Description

Multiplies f by r provided that r belongs to the underlying polynomial ring of the component in which f lives.

i2 : F = makeFreeOIModule(e, {1,1}, P);

i3 : installGeneratorsInWidth(F, 2);

i4 : f=x_(1,1)*e_(2,{1},1)+x_(2,1)*e_(2,{1},2)-x_(1,2)*e_(2,{2},1)-x_(2,2)*e_(2,{2},2)
