The commutant of a magma is the set of its members that commute with every member of the magma.

The Commutant command returns the commutant of the magma m as a set.

$m≔⟨⟨⟨1\|2\|3⟩\,⟨2\|3\|1⟩\,⟨3\|1\|2⟩⟩⟩$

$m≔\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1& 2& 3\\ 2& 3& 1\\ 3& 1& 2\end{array}\right]$

The Magma[Commutant] command was introduced in Maple 15.
