sub1 = NonCommutativeMultiply[
    ___ , r, e, r, e, ___] -> 0;

sub2 = ___ ** r ** e ** r ** e ** ___ -> 0;

g ** a ** p ** r ** e ** r ** e /. sub1

0

g ** a ** p ** r ** e ** r ** e /. sub2

0

r ** e ** r ** e /. sub1

0

r ** e ** r ** e /. sub2

0

g ** a ** p ** r ** e ** r ** e ** h /. sub1

0

g ** a ** p ** r ** e ** r ** e ** h /. sub2

Dear all,

I'm working with a huge amount (2000) of terms of this tipe:
g**a**p**r**e**r**e

But a lot of them are cero. The problem is that i'm not able to set
r**e**r**e->0 in such expresions. If I do g**a**p**r**e**r**e/.r**e**r**e->0
nothing happens.

Do you have some idea?

Thanks a lot!
