D.15.4.33 chWedge2LP

Procedure from library chern.lib (see chern_lib).

Usage:
chWedge2LP(r, c ); r integer, c list of polynomials

Return:
poly

Purpose:
computes the total Chern class of the second exterior power of a vector bundle

Note:
Implementation of the formula of Lascoux, the Schur polynomials are computed using the second Jacobi-Trudi formula (in terms of the Chern classes)

Example:
 
LIB "chern.lib";
ring r=0, (c(1..3)), ws(1,2,3);
list l=c(1..3);
// the total Chern class of the second exterior power of a vector bundle of rank 3
print(chWedge2LP(3, l));
==> 1+2*c(1)+c(1)^2+c(2)+c(1)*c(2)-c(3)
