If i correctly understood the cyclic differential, the following pedestrian code should do the job...
def delta(f, i):
"""Implement $d_i$ on elements f of a free algebra with N generators.
Here, we expect that i is among 0, 1, ... , N-1.
Below, there is a commented print.
For the test non-commutative polynomial f from
F.<a,b,c> = FreeAlgebra(QQ)
f = a^3*b^2*a*c*b + 3*a*b^3*c - 7*a^3
it delivers:
Derivating monomial a^3*b^2*a*c*b
(alias [(a, 3), (b, 2), (a, 1), (c, 1), (b, 1)] as a list)
with coefficient 1.
Derivating monomial a*b^3*c
(alias [(a, 1), (b, 3), (c, 1)] as a list)
with coefficient 3.
Derivating monomial a^3
(alias [(a, 3)] as a list)
with coefficient -7.
Hope this explains the implementation now...
