traceMap -- produces the trace map from a ring to a free module tensored with its dual

Synopsis

Usage:

traceMap F
Inputs:
- F, a free module with labeled basis,
Outputs:
- a map of labeled modules,

Description

If $F$ is a free labeled module, then this produces the trace map $S\to F\otimes F^*$.

i1 : S=ZZ/101[x,y,z];

i2 : F=labeledModule(S^3);

o2 : free S-module with labeled basis

i3 : traceMap F
