Hi,

if I enter

Tr1a = Tr[GS[P1].GS[P2].GS[P3].GA[i].(1 - GA[5])];
Tr2a = Tr[GS[Q1].GS[Q2].GS[Q3].GA[i].(1 - GA[5])];
Tr3a = Tr[
   GS[P1].GS[P2].GS[P3].GA[i].GS[Q1].GS[Q2].GS[Q3].GA[i].(1 - GA[5])];

then

Result = Simplify[Contract[Tr1a.Tr2a + 2 Tr3a]] // Schouten

indeed returns zero.

Cheers,
Vladyslav
