Calling Sequence

Parameters

X,Y

-

VectorField objects (see LieAlgebrasOfVectorFields[VectorField] for how to construct one)

Description

• 

Let K be the Killing form of a LAVF object L. The K can act as a symmetric bilinear operator on vector fields.

• 

This method is associated with the local KF object. For more detail, see Overview of the KF object for more detail.

We first construct a LAVF object for E(2).
