Could anybody help me with the derivative of the trace of a tensor
product? Unfortunately I don't have access to a good book to look it
up at the moment.

The problem is

d tr(AB) / d B

whereby A and B denote second order tensors.

Any help is bery much appreciated and will help not to think about the
problem for the while weekend.

Thanks

d tr(AB) / d B = A'
