Hi,

… Hello great FeynCalc team.
There exists an identity relating the product of two Levi-Civita symbols
(with no contracted indices) to the determinant of a matrix made of
metric tensors. The identity is the following

attachments/assets/12dba086-0cc7-4ac6-8a98-259cf559d737>
The same identity is shown in Wikipedia <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/
Levi-Civita_symbol>. I have proven that this identity holds component by
component (by using a python code). My question is: Is it possible to
ask FeynCalc to use this identity to replace the product of Levi-Civita
symbols in an expression? If so, how?
Thanks in advance!
