Aug 22, 2019 at 10:38 comment added Per Alexandersson @DCM Yes, think it should be something like that, but the expressions I manage to come up with are not symmetric in the eigenvalues, which is absurd.
Aug 22, 2019 at 10:22 comment added DCM If you know the eigenvalues of the $\wedge^nV$ endomorphism, isn't your trace just going to be the sum of some subset of these? Have you tried doing all the calculations explicitly for your $n=2$ example? Is the difficulty more 'passing to the exterior power' or `passing to an invariant subspace'?
Aug 21, 2019 at 21:10 comment added Per Alexandersson @AliTaghavi I have not thought about that...

I add the tag "trace'

Aug 21, 2019 at 20:56 comment added Ali Taghavi Is there an interesting NONLINEAR analogy for the spaces you are considering?
Aug 21, 2019 at 20:54 comment added Ali Taghavi is it true (and obvious) that every every linear symplectomorphism of $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$ preserve $W$?
Aug 21, 2019 at 20:52 comment added Ali Taghavi Thanks for your edit and giving an example clearing the definition.

added example
Aug 21, 2019 at 20:41 comment added Per Alexandersson @AliTaghavi By convention, there is an order of the indices - increasing. Note that if you know the e-indices, then the f-indices are known as well. The subset of [n] that index the e-part can be chosen in 2^n ways.
Aug 21, 2019 at 20:37 comment added Ali Taghavi I have difficulty to understand the definition of $W$ since you wrote it has $2^n$ dimension let us consider $n=2$ it is more convenient to put an order on variables $x_1<x_2<y_1<y_2$ so I think you mean a base for $W$ is $x_1 \wedge y_2, x-2\wedge y_1 $ so it is 2 dimensional not 4 dimensional space. what is my error?

I fix the notation because the previous one could be confused with space of polynomials in 2n variables.
