If you do sage: x^a*x^b-x^c*x^d -x^d*x^c + x^b*x^a sage: _.simplify_full() x^(a + b) - x^(c + d)
it will work, but apparently this simplification is not built into Pynac, probably for good reasons? - kcrisman On Aug 12, 9:47 pm, vasu <tewari.v...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi > Thanks for the suggestions.
