Description
Up to now, the GAP library method for
CentralIdempotentsOfAlgebra
requires only
IsAlgebra
but the method throws an error if the argumentdoes not support
One
.In fact, only
MultiplicativeNeutralElement
is needed.Klaus Lux has observed the deficiency.
(For a meaningful test example, I have also added
Representative
methods for left/right/two sided ideals with known ideal generators. No such method had been available up to now.)Text for release notes
