trace(ZZ,LieSubSpace,LieAlgebraMap) -- compute the trace of a Lie algebra map acting on a Lie subspace

• Function: trace

• Usage:

  r = trace(n,S,f)

• Inputs:
  • n, an integer, the degree
  • S, an instance of the type LieSubSpace,
  • f, an instance of the type LieAlgebraMap,
• Outputs:
  • r, a ring element, the trace of the map $f$ acting on $S$ in degree $n$
