In SparseMultivariateTaylorSeries we have:

++   This domain provides multivariate Taylor series with variables
++   from an arbitrary ordered set.  A Taylor series is represented
++   by a stream of polynomials from the polynomial domain SMP.
++   The nth element of the stream is a form of degree n.  SMTS is an
         ^^^^^^^^^^^                            ^^^^^^^^      
++   internal domain.

Now, I did not check which map you use, but my guess is that it
maps nth term of source series to nth term of target sequence.
However coefficient lowers degree -- that is why I suspect that
this implementation breaks invariant.

That confirms problem:


(3) -> series(sin(x), x=0)

            1  3    1   5     1   7      1    9       1     11      12
   (3)  x - - x  + --- x  - ---- x  + ------ x  - -------- x   + O(x  )
            6      120      5040      362880      39916800
(4) -> (x+y)^5

         5       4      2 3      3 2     4     5
   (4)  y  + 5x y  + 10x y  + 10x y  + 5x y + x

so we should also have y^4/24 in the result.

Another test may be:

coefficient(coefficient(sin(X+Y), [x], [1]), 2)
