[A_new,f_min]=NCcycOpt(f) computes trace minimizers and the trace minimum of the polynomial f whenever the tracial moment matrix corresponding to the polynomial f is flat.

f is an NCpoly representing a polynomial.

A_new is a matrix each of whose rows represent a square matrix A_i that is a trace minimizer for f. The matrices A_i are simultaneously block diagonal.
f_min represents the trace minimum of f. Each element in this vector equals the trace of the evaluation of f in equally positioned diagonal blocks consisting of matrices A_i.
