In some cases it is desirable to keep an argument constant over the entire subset. For example the function
QDP_V_eq_c_times_V(c,z,b,s)
multiplies a lattice field of color vectors by a complex constant as in
c[x] = z*b[x]
for x
in subset s
.
In this case we specify that the argument is constant (coordinate-independent)
by writing the type abbreviation in lower case: c
