VectorField objects (see LieAlgebrasOfVectorFields[VectorField] for how to construct one)
Let K be the Killing form of a LAVF object L. The K can act as a symmetric bilinear operator on vector fields.
This method is associated with the local KF object. For more detail, see Overview of the KF object for more detail.

We first construct a LAVF object for E(2).

Now we create a second vector field on the same space

The KF Object as Operator command was introduced in Maple 2020.
