__init__(self, *args)
(Constructor)

source code 

Check for at least two indices

Overrides: object.__init__

simplify(self)

source code 

Implement T(a,b,c,...,i,i) = Tr(a,b,c,...) and T(a,x,b,x,c,i,j) = 1/2(T(a,c,i,j)Tr(b)-1/Nc T(a,b,c,i,j))

Overrides: ColorObject.simplify

pair_simplify(self, col_obj)

source code 
Implement T(a,...,i,j)T(b,...,j,k) = T(a,...,b,...,i,k)
and T(a,x,b,i,j)T(c,x,d,k,l) = 1/2(T(a,d,i,l)T(c,b,k,j)    
                                -1/Nc T(a,b,i,j)T(c,d,k,l)).

Overrides: ColorObject.pair_simplify

complex_conjugate(self)

source code 

Complex conjugation. Overwritten here because the two last indices should be treated differently

Overrides: ColorObject.complex_conjugate
