orbit (P, lvar)

Description

computes the orbit of the polynomial P in the variables in the list lvar under the action of the symmetric group of the set of variables in the list lvar.

(%i1) orbit (a*x + b*y, [x, y]);
(%o1)                [a y + b x, b y + a x]
(%i2) orbit (2*x + x^2, [x, y]);
                        2         2
(%o2)                 [y  + 2 y, x  + 2 x]
