KroneckerDelta
Turns an object into a generalised Kronecker delta symbol.
Denotes a generalised Kronecker
delta symbol. When the symbol carries two indices, it is the usual
Kronecker delta. When the number of indices is larger, the meaning
is
\begin{equation}
\delta_{m_1}{}^{n_1}{}_{m_2}{}^{n_2}{}_{... m_k}{}^{n_k} =
\delta_{[m 1}{}^{n_1} \delta_{m_2}{}^{n_2} \cdots \delta_{m_k]}{}^{n_k} \,,
\end{equation}
with unit weight anti-symmetrisation.
A symbol which is declared as a
Kronecker delta has the property that it can be taken in and out of
derivatives. The algorithm eliminate_kronecker
eliminates
normal Kronecker deltas by appropriately renaming indices (in order to
eliminate Kronecker deltas with more than two indices, first
use expand_delta
).
