Re: [sage-combinat-devel] Making code for some seminormal representations faster

I'm currently going around in circles with some CombinatorialFreeModule woes. The previous code for these alternating seminormal forms works, but in order to cope with the many variations of seminormal representations that I decided to implement working I've have had to jazz things up quite a

Hmmm... I don't see anything from a quick read of the code why this is going wrong. I'll take a more detailed look today. Best, Travis On Friday, November 21, 2014 5:55:51 AM UTC-8, Andrew wrote: I'm currently going around in circles with some CombinatorialFreeModule woes. The previous

Hey Andrew and Nicolas, I've probably mentioned this before, but I think we should figure out how we want to handle categories for representations in general. I would like this for Lie algebras (equiv. universal enveloping algebras), quantum groups, and general groups (equiv. group
