isMinimalRepresentative(Parabolic,WeylGroupElement) -- check whether an element of a Weyl group is the minimal representative of a right coset

Synopsis

Description

i1 : R=rootSystemE(6)

o1 = RootSystem{...8...}

o1 : RootSystem
i2 : P=parabolic(R,set{1,2,3,4,5})

o2 = set {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}

o2 : Parabolic
i3 : w=minimalRepresentative (P % (longestWeylGroupElement R))

o3 = WeylGroupElement{RootSystem{...8...}, |  1  |}
                                           |  1  |
                                           |  1  |
