D.15.3.32 chWedge2L

Procedure from library chern.lib (see chern_lib).

Usage:
chWedge2L(r, c ); r integer, c list of polynomials

Return:
list of polynomials

Purpose:
computes the Chern classes 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)), dp;
list l=c(1..3);
// the Chern classes of the second exterior power of a vector bundle of rank 3
print(chWedge2L(3, l));
