No, there is no trace operation implemented. However there are some
workarounds available:
element_prod(A,B); // compute c(i,j) = a(i,j)*b(i,j)
scalar_vector<double>(A.size1(), 1.0); // a vector of ones
sum(v); // sums element of a vector
Please try this:
sum( prod( scalar_vector<double>(A.size1(), 1.0), element_prod(A,B) ) );

PS: If you solution runs, please add it to the wiki.
PPS: If there are more people asking for a ones vector - I can add a
class ones_vector similar to zero_vector (g++ optimizes multiplications
with 1.0 away.)
