Here are a few useful matrix functions, including the trace you asked
for

Diag[matrix_List]:=
 
Table[If[i==j,matrix\[LeftDoubleBracket]i,j\[RightDoubleBracket],0],{i,
      L[matrix]},{j,L[matrix]}]
VecLow[matrix_List]:=Flatten[MapIndexed[Take[#1,First[#2]-1]&,matrix]]
VecLowDiag[matrix_List]:=Flatten[MapIndexed[Take[#1,First[#2]]&,matrix]]
VecDiag[matrix_List]:=Table[matrix[[i,i]], {i,Length[matrix]}]
Tr[matrix_List]:=Plus@@VecDiag[matrix] --
