a KF object that is constructed by the method KillingForm.
Let K be the Killing form of a LAVF object L. Then IsTrivial(K) checks if the Killing form of L is trivial (i.e. K⁡X,Y=0 for all vector fields X,Y solving L).
This method is associated with the local KF object. For more detail, see Overview of the KF object for more detail.

The IsTrivial command was introduced in Maple 2020.
