many thanks for the clarification.
After googling a little I found related FeynCalc opensource package for
(commercial) Mathematica CAS, which solves similar tasks.
Much interesting, there followed a discussion back in 2004 about
implementing this in AXIOM and may be MAXIMA also, but seemingly not
much done in this area.
Are there non-technical problems to this? (license issues, etc)
Is it possible for newcomer like me to eventually "translate" FeynCalc
code to maxima? or to axiom?
Best regards,
Vadim.
