Hey Vladyslav,

Thanks for the reply, though the problem persists. I actually tried your solution before but I ran into the same problem.

after doing:

res=((M12 // FermionSpinSum) /. DiracTrace -> Tr) // Contract

I still get a product of traces, because there are still dummy indexes inside them:

tr(…GA[alpha]…GA[alphalin]..) tr (… GA[alpha]…GA[alphalin]…)

Everything is multiplying, so there are no “free indexes” M12 is a Lorentz scalar.

Best,
Duarte
