Linear Algebra

Linear Algebra

Standard Functions

Linear algebra functions in Julia are largely implemented by calling functions from LAPACK. Sparse factorizations call functions from SuiteSparse.

Base.:*Method.
*(x, y...)

Multiplication operator. x*y*z*... calls this function with all arguments, i.e. *(x, y, z, ...).

source
Base.:\Method.
\(x, y)

Left division operator: multiplication of y by the inverse of x on the left. Gives floating-point results for integer arguments.

Base.LinAlg.dotFunction.
dot(n, X, incx, Y, incy)

Dot product of two vectors consisting of n elements of array X with stride incx and n elements of array Y with stride incy.

Example:

julia> dot(10, ones(10), 1, ones(20), 2)
10.0
source
Base.LinAlg.vecdotFunction.
vecdot(x, y)

For any iterable containers x and y (including arrays of any dimension) of numbers (or any element type for which dot is defined), compute the Euclidean dot product (the sum of dot(x[i],y[i])) as if they were vectors.

Examples

julia> vecdot(1:5, 2:6)
70

julia> x = fill(2., (5,5));

julia> y = fill(3., (5,5));

julia> vecdot(x, y)
150.0
source
Base.LinAlg.crossFunction.
cross(x, y)
×(x,y)

Compute the cross product of two 3-vectors.

Example

julia> a = [0;1;0]
3-element Array{Int64,1}:

Base.LinAlg.factorizeFunction.
factorize(A)

Compute a convenient factorization of A, based upon the type of the input matrix. factorize checks A to see if it is symmetric/triangular/etc. if A is passed as a generic matrix. factorize checks every element of A to verify/rule out each property. It will short-circuit as soon as it can rule out symmetry/triangular structure. The return value can be reused for efficient solving of multiple systems. For example: A=factorize(A); x=A\b; y=A\C.

TridiagonalLU (see lufact)
Symmetric real tridiagonalLDLt (see ldltfact)

If factorize is called on a Hermitian positive-definite matrix, for instance, then factorize will return a Cholesky factorization.

Example

julia> A = Array(Bidiagonal(ones(5, 5), true))
5×5 Array{Float64,2}:
 1.0  1.0  0.0  0.0  0.0
 0.0  1.0  1.0  0.0  0.0
 0.0  0.0  1.0  1.0  0.0
 0.0  0.0  0.0  1.0  1.0
 0.0  0.0  0.0  0.0  1.0

julia> factorize(A) # factorize will check to see that A is already factorized
5×5 Bidiagonal{Float64}:

  ⋅    ⋅    ⋅   1.0  1.0
  ⋅    ⋅    ⋅    ⋅   1.0

This returns a 5×5 Bidiagonal{Float64}, which can now be passed to other linear algebra functions (e.g. eigensolvers) which will use specialized methods for Bidiagonal types.

Base.LinAlg.luFunction.
lu(A, pivot=Val{true}) -> L, U, p

Compute the LU factorization of A, such that A[p,:] = L*U. By default, pivoting is used. This can be overridden by passing Val{false} for the second argument.

See also lufact.

Example

julia> A = [4. 3.; 6. 3.]

Base.LinAlg.lufactFunction.
lufact(A::SparseMatrixCSC) -> F::UmfpackLU

Compute the LU factorization of a sparse matrix A.

For sparse A with real or complex element type, the return type of F is UmfpackLU{Tv, Ti}, with Tv = Float64 or Complex128 respectively and Ti is an integer type (Int32 or Int64).

The individual components of the factorization F can be accessed by indexing:

ComponentDescription
F[:L]L (lower triangular) part of LU
F[:U]U (upper triangular) part of LU
F[:p]right permutation Vector
F[:q]left permutation Vector
F[:Rs]Vector of scaling factors
F[:(:)](L,U,p,q,Rs) components

The relation between F and A is

F[:L]*F[:U] == (F[:Rs] .* A)[F[:p], F[:q]]

F further supports the following functions:

Note

lufact(A::SparseMatrixCSC) uses the UMFPACK library that is part of SuiteSparse. As this library only supports sparse matrices with Float64 or Complex128 elements, lufact converts A into a copy that is of type SparseMatrixCSC{Float64} or SparseMatrixCSC{Complex128} as appropriate.

source
lufact(A [,pivot=Val{true}]) -> F::LU

Compute the LU factorization of A.

In most cases, if A is a subtype S of AbstractMatrix{T} with an element type T supporting +, -, * and /, the return type is LU{T,S{T}}. If pivoting is chosen (default) the element type should also support abs and <.

The individual components of the factorization F can be accessed by indexing:

ComponentDescription
F[:L]L (lower triangular) part of LU
F[:U]U (upper triangular) part of LU
F[:p](right) permutation Vector
F[:P](right) permutation Matrix

The relationship between F and A is

F[:L]*F[:U] == A[F[:p], :]

F further supports the following functions:

Base.LinAlg.lufact!Function.

lufact! is the same as lufact, but saves space by overwriting the input A, instead of creating a copy. An InexactError exception is thrown if the factorization produces a number not representable by the element type of A, e.g. for integer types.

Base.LinAlg.cholfactFunction.
cholfact(A; shift = 0.0, perm = Int[]) -> CHOLMOD.Factor

Compute the Cholesky factorization of a sparse positive definite matrix A. A must be a SparseMatrixCSC or a Symmetric/Hermitian view of a SparseMatrixCSC. Note that even if A doesn't have the type tag, it must still be symmetric or Hermitian. A fill-reducing permutation is used. F = cholfact(A) is most frequently used to solve systems of equations with F\b, but also the methods diag, det, and logdet are defined for F. You can also extract individual factors from F, using F[:L]. However, since pivoting is on by default, the factorization is internally represented as A == P'*L*L'*P with a permutation matrix P; using just L without accounting for P will give incorrect answers. To include the effects of permutation, it's typically preferable to extract "combined" factors like PtL = F[:PtL] (the equivalent of P'*L) and LtP = F[:UP] (the equivalent of L'*P).

Setting the optional shift keyword argument computes the factorization of A+shift*I instead of A. If the perm argument is nonempty, it should be a permutation of 1:size(A,1) giving the ordering to use (instead of CHOLMOD's default AMD ordering).

Note

This method uses the CHOLMOD library from SuiteSparse, which only supports doubles or complex doubles. Input matrices not of those element types will be converted to SparseMatrixCSC{Float64} or SparseMatrixCSC{Complex128} as appropriate.

Many other functions from CHOLMOD are wrapped but not exported from the Base.SparseArrays.CHOLMOD module.

source
cholfact(A, [uplo::Symbol,] Val{false}) -> Cholesky

Compute the Cholesky factorization of a dense symmetric positive definite matrix A and return a Cholesky factorization. The matrix A can either be a Symmetric or HermitianStridedMatrix or a perfectly symmetric or Hermitian StridedMatrix. In the latter case, the optional argument uplo may be :L for using the lower part or :U for the upper part of A. The default is to use :U. The triangular Cholesky factor can be obtained from the factorization F with: F[:L] and F[:U]. The following functions are available for Cholesky objects: size, \, inv, and det. A PosDefException exception is thrown in case the matrix is not positive definite.

Compute the pivoted Cholesky factorization of a dense symmetric positive semi-definite matrix A and return a CholeskyPivoted factorization. The matrix A can either be a Symmetric or HermitianStridedMatrix or a perfectly symmetric or Hermitian StridedMatrix. In the latter case, the optional argument uplo may be :L for using the lower part or :U for the upper part of A. The default is to use :U. The triangular Cholesky factor can be obtained from the factorization F with: F[:L] and F[:U]. The following functions are available for PivotedCholesky objects: size, \, inv, det, and rank. The argument tol determines the tolerance for determining the rank. For negative values, the tolerance is the machine precision.

F = ldltfact(A) is most frequently used to solve systems of equations A*x = b with F\b. The returned factorization object F also supports the methods diag, det, logdet, and inv. You can extract individual factors from F using F[:L]. However, since pivoting is on by default, the factorization is internally represented as A == P'*L*D*L'*P with a permutation matrix P; using just L without accounting for P will give incorrect answers. To include the effects of permutation, it is typically preferable to extract "combined" factors like PtL = F[:PtL] (the equivalent of P'*L) and LtP = F[:UP] (the equivalent of L'*P). The complete list of supported factors is :L, :PtL, :D, :UP, :U, :LD, :DU, :PtLD, :DUP.

Setting the optional shift keyword argument computes the factorization of A+shift*I instead of A. If the perm argument is nonempty, it should be a permutation of 1:size(A,1) giving the ordering to use (instead of CHOLMOD's default AMD ordering).

Note

This method uses the CHOLMOD library from SuiteSparse, which only supports doubles or complex doubles. Input matrices not of those element types will be converted to SparseMatrixCSC{Float64} or SparseMatrixCSC{Complex128} as appropriate.

Many other functions from CHOLMOD are wrapped but not exported from the Base.SparseArrays.CHOLMOD module.

ldltfact(S::SymTridiagonal) -> LDLt

Compute an LDLt factorization of a real symmetric tridiagonal matrix such that A = L*Diagonal(d)*L' where L is a unit lower triangular matrix and d is a vector. The main use of an LDLt factorization F = ldltfact(A) is to solve the linear system of equations Ax = b with F\b.

source
Base.LinAlg.ldltfact!Function.
ldltfact!(F::Factor, A; shift = 0.0) -> CHOLMOD.Factor

Compute the $LDL'$ factorization of A, reusing the symbolic factorization F. A must be a SparseMatrixCSC or a Symmetric/Hermitian view of a SparseMatrixCSC. Note that even if A doesn't have the type tag, it must still be symmetric or Hermitian.

See also ldltfact.

Base.LinAlg.qrFunction.
qr(A, pivot=Val{false}; thin::Bool=true) -> Q, R, [p]

Compute the (pivoted) QR factorization of A such that either A = Q*R or A[:,p] = Q*R. Also see qrfact. The default is to compute a thin factorization. Note that R is not extended with zeros when the full Q is requested.

source
qr(v::AbstractVector) -> w, r

Computes the polar decomposition of a vector. Returns w, a unit vector in the direction of v, and r, the norm of v.

source
Base.LinAlg.qr!Function.
LinAlg.qr!(v::AbstractVector) -> w, r

Computes the polar decomposition of a vector. Instead of returning a new vector as qr(v::AbstractVector), this function mutates the input vector v in place. Returns w, a unit vector in the direction of v (this is a mutation of v), and r, the norm of v.

See also normalize, normalize!, and qr.

source
Base.LinAlg.qrfactFunction.
qrfact(A, pivot=Val{false}) -> F

Compute the QR factorization of the matrix A: an orthogonal (or unitary if A is complex-valued) matrix Q, and an upper triangular matrix R such that

\[A = Q R\]

The returned object F stores the factorization in a packed format:

  • if pivot == Val{true} then F is a QRPivoted object,

  • otherwise if the element type of A is a BLAS type (Float32, Float64, Complex64 or Complex128), then F is a QRCompactWY object,

  • otherwise F is a QR object.

The individual components of the factorization F can be accessed by indexing with a symbol:

  • F[:Q]: the orthogonal/unitary matrix Q

  • F[:R]: the upper triangular matrix R

  • F[:p]: the permutation vector of the pivot (QRPivoted only)

  • F[:P]: the permutation matrix of the pivot (QRPivoted only)

The following functions are available for the QR objects: inv, size, and \. When A is rectangular, \ will return a least squares solution and if the solution is not unique, the one with smallest norm is returned.

Multiplication with respect to either thin or full Q is allowed, i.e. both F[:Q]*F[:R] and F[:Q]*A are supported. A Q matrix can be converted into a regular matrix with full which has a named argument thin.

Example

julia> A = [3.0 -6.0; 4.0 -8.0; 0.0 1.0]
3×2 Array{Float64,2}:
 3.0  -6.0
 4.0  -8.0
 0.0   1.0

julia> F = qrfact(A)
Base.LinAlg.QRCompactWY{Float64,Array{Float64,2}} with factors Q and R:
[-0.6 0.0 0.8; -0.8 0.0 -0.6; 0.0 -1.0 0.0]
[-5.0 10.0; 0.0 -1.0]

julia> F[:Q] * F[:R] == A
true
Note

qrfact returns multiple types because LAPACK uses several representations that minimize the memory storage requirements of products of Householder elementary reflectors, so that the Q and R matrices can be stored compactly rather as two separate dense matrices.

source
qrfact(A) -> SPQR.Factorization

Compute the QR factorization of a sparse matrix A. A fill-reducing permutation is used. The main application of this type is to solve least squares problems with \. The function calls the C library SPQR and a few additional functions from the library are wrapped but not exported.

qrfact!(A, pivot=Val{false})

qrfact! is the same as qrfact when A is a subtype of StridedMatrix, but saves space by overwriting the input A, instead of creating a copy. An InexactError exception is thrown if the factorization produces a number not representable by the element type of A, e.g. for integer types.

QR <: Factorization

A QR matrix factorization stored in a packed format, typically obtained from qrfact. If $A$ is an m×n matrix, then

\[A = Q R\]

where $Q$ is an orthogonal/unitary matrix and $R$ is upper triangular. The matrix $Q$ is stored as a sequence of Householder reflectors $v_i$ and coefficients $\tau_i$ where:

\[Q = \prod_{i=1}^{\min(m,n)} (I - \tau_i v_i v_i^T).\]

The object has two fields:

  • factors is an m×n matrix.

    • The upper triangular part contains the elements of $R$, that is R = triu(F.factors) for a QR object F.

    • The subdiagonal part contains the reflectors $v_i$ stored in a packed format where $v_i$ is the $i$th column of the matrix V = eye(m,n) + tril(F.factors,-1).

  • τ is a vector of length min(m,n) containing the coefficients $au_i$.

source
QRCompactWY <: Factorization

A QR matrix factorization stored in a compact blocked format, typically obtained from qrfact. If $A$ is an m×n matrix, then

\[A = Q R\]

where $Q$ is an orthogonal/unitary matrix and $R$ is upper triangular. It is similar to the QR format except that the orthogonal/unitary matrix $Q$ is stored in Compact WY format [Schreiber1989], as a lower trapezoidal matrix $V$ and an upper triangular matrix $T$ where

\[Q = \prod_{i=1}^{\min(m,n)} (I - \tau_i v_i v_i^T) = I - V T V^T\]

such that $v_i$ is the $i$th column of $V$, and $au_i$ is the $i$th diagonal element of $T$.

The object has two fields:

  • factors, as in the QR type, is an m×n matrix.

    • The upper triangular part contains the elements of $R$, that is R = triu(F.factors) for a QR object F.

    • The subdiagonal part contains the reflectors $v_i$ stored in a packed format such that V = eye(m,n) + tril(F.factors,-1).

  • T is a square matrix with min(m,n) columns, whose upper triangular part gives the matrix $T$ above (the subdiagonal elements are ignored).

Note

This format should not to be confused with the older WY representation [Bischof1987].

QRPivoted <: Factorization

A QR matrix factorization with column pivoting in a packed format, typically obtained from qrfact. If $A$ is an m×n matrix, then

\[Q = \prod_{i=1}^{\min(m,n)} (I - \tau_i v_i v_i^T).\]

The object has three fields:

  • factors is an m×n matrix.

    • The upper triangular part contains the elements of $R$, that is R = triu(F.factors) for a QR object F.

    • The subdiagonal part contains the reflectors $v_i$ stored in a packed format where $v_i$ is the $i$th column of the matrix V = eye(m,n) + tril(F.factors,-1).

Computes the Generalized Schur (or QZ) factorization of the matrices A and B. The (quasi) triangular Schur factors can be obtained from the Schur object F with F[:S] and F[:T], the left unitary/orthogonal Schur vectors can be obtained with F[:left] or F[:Q] and the right unitary/orthogonal Schur vectors can be obtained with F[:right] or F[:Z] such that A=F[:left]*F[:S]*F[:right]' and B=F[:left]*F[:T]*F[:right]'. The generalized eigenvalues of A and B can be obtained with F[:alpha]./F[:beta].

Base.LinAlg.svdfactFunction.
svdfact(A; thin::Bool=true) -> SVD

Compute the singular value decomposition (SVD) of A and return an SVD object.

U, S, V and Vt can be obtained from the factorization F with F[:U], F[:S], F[:V] and F[:Vt], such that A = U*diagm(S)*Vt. The algorithm produces Vt and hence Vt is more efficient to extract than V. The singular values in S are sorted in descending order.

If thin=true (default), a thin SVD is returned. For a $M \times N$ matrix A, U is $M \times M$ for a full SVD (thin=false) and $M \times \min(M, N)$ for a thin SVD.

svdfact(A, B) -> GeneralizedSVD

Compute the generalized SVD of A and B, returning a GeneralizedSVD factorization object F, such that A = F[:U]*F[:D1]*F[:R0]*F[:Q]' and B = F[:V]*F[:D2]*F[:R0]*F[:Q]'.

For an M-by-N matrix A and P-by-N matrix B,

  • F[:U] is a M-by-M orthogonal matrix,

  • F[:V] is a P-by-P orthogonal matrix,

  • F[:Q] is a N-by-N orthogonal matrix,

  • F[:R0] is a (K+L)-by-N matrix whose rightmost (K+L)-by-(K+L) block is nonsingular upper block triangular,

  • F[:D1] is a M-by-(K+L) diagonal matrix with 1s in the first K entries,

  • F[:D2] is a P-by-(K+L) matrix whose top right L-by-L block is diagonal,

K+L is the effective numerical rank of the matrix [A; B].

The entries of F[:D1] and F[:D2] are related, as explained in the LAPACK documentation for the generalized SVD and the xGGSVD3 routine which is called underneath (in LAPACK 3.6.0 and newer).

Base.LinAlg.svdFunction.
svd(A; thin::Bool=true) -> U, S, V

Computes the SVD of A, returning U, vector S, and V such that A == U*diagm(S)*V'. The singular values in S are sorted in descending order.

If thin=true (default), a thin SVD is returned. For a $M \times N$ matrix A, U is $M \times M$ for a full SVD (thin=false) and $M \times \min(M, N)$ for a thin SVD.

svd is a wrapper around svdfact, extracting all parts of the SVD factorization to a tuple. Direct use of svdfact is therefore more efficient.

LinAlg.Givens(i1,i2,c,s) -> G

A Givens rotation linear operator. The fields c and s represent the cosine and sine of the rotation angle, respectively. The Givens type supports left multiplication G*A and conjugated transpose right multiplication A*G'. The type doesn't have a size and can therefore be multiplied with matrices of arbitrary size as long as i2<=size(A,2) for G*A or i2<=size(A,1) for A*G'.

Base.LinAlg.normFunction.
norm(A::AbstractArray, p::Real=2)

Compute the p-norm of a vector or the operator norm of a matrix A, defaulting to the 2-norm.

norm(A::AbstractVector, p::Real=2)

For vectors, this is equivalent to vecnorm and equal to:

\[\|A\|_p = \left( \sum_{i=1}^n | a_i | ^p \right)^{1/p}\]

with $a_i$ the entries of $A$ and $n$ its length.

p can assume any numeric value (even though not all values produce a mathematically valid vector norm). In particular, norm(A, Inf) returns the largest value in abs(A), whereas norm(A, -Inf) returns the smallest.

Example

julia> v = [3, -2, 6]

source
norm(A::AbstractMatrix, p::Real=2)

For matrices, the matrix norm induced by the vector p-norm is used, where valid values of p are 1, 2, or Inf. (Note that for sparse matrices, p=2 is currently not implemented.) Use vecnorm to compute the Frobenius norm.

When p=1, the matrix norm is the maximum absolute column sum of A:

\[\|A\|_1 = \max_{1 ≤ j ≤ n} \sum_{i=1}^m | a_{ij} |\]

with $a_{ij}$ the entries of $A$, and $m$ and $n$ its dimensions.

When p=2, the matrix norm is the spectral norm, equal to the largest singular value of A.

When p=Inf, the matrix norm is the maximum absolute row sum of A:

\[\|A\|_\infty = \max_{1 ≤ i ≤ m} \sum _{j=1}^n | a_{ij} |\]

Example

julia> A = [1 -2 -3; 2 3 -1]

norm(x::Number, p::Real=2)

For numbers, return $\left( |x|^p \right)^{1/p}$. This is equivalent to vecnorm.

source
norm(A::RowVector, q::Real=2)

For row vectors, return the $q$-norm of A, which is equivalent to the p-norm with value p = q/(q-1). They coincide at p = q = 2.

The difference in norm between a vector space and its dual arises to preserve the relationship between duality and the inner product, and the result is consistent with the p-norm of 1 × n matrix.

source
Base.LinAlg.vecnormFunction.
vecnorm(A, p::Real=2)

For any iterable container A (including arrays of any dimension) of numbers (or any element type for which norm is defined), compute the p-norm (defaulting to p=2) as if A were a vector of the corresponding length.

The p-norm is defined as:

\[\|A\|_p = \left( \sum_{i=1}^n | a_i | ^p \right)^{1/p}\]

with $a_i$ the entries of $A$ and $n$ its length.

p can assume any numeric value (even though not all values produce a mathematically valid vector norm). In particular, vecnorm(A, Inf) returns the largest value in abs(A), whereas vecnorm(A, -Inf) returns the smallest. If A is a matrix and p=2, then this is equivalent to the Frobenius norm.

Base.LinAlg.pinvFunction.
pinv(M[, tol::Real])

Computes the Moore-Penrose pseudoinverse.

For matrices M with floating point elements, it is convenient to compute the pseudoinverse by inverting only singular values above a given threshold, tol.

The optimal choice of tol varies both with the value of M and the intended application of the pseudoinverse. The default value of tol is eps(real(float(one(eltype(M)))))*maximum(size(A)), which is essentially machine epsilon for the real part of a matrix element multiplied by the larger matrix dimension. For inverting dense ill-conditioned matrices in a least-squares sense, tol = sqrt(eps(real(float(one(eltype(M)))))) is recommended.

Base.LinAlg.logmFunction.
logm(A{T}::StridedMatrix{T})

If A has no negative real eigenvalue, compute the principal matrix logarithm of A, i.e. the unique matrix $X$ such that $e^X = A$ and $-\pi < Im(\lambda) < \pi$ for all the eigenvalues $\lambda$ of $X$. If A has nonpositive eigenvalues, a nonprincipal matrix function is returned whenever possible.

If A is symmetric or Hermitian, its eigendecomposition (eigfact) is used, if A is triangular an improved version of the inverse scaling and squaring method is employed (see [AH12] and [AHR13]). For general matrices, the complex Schur form (schur) is computed and the triangular algorithm is used on the triangular factor.

sqrtm(A)

If A has no negative real eigenvalues, compute the principal matrix square root of A, that is the unique matrix $X$ with eigenvalues having positive real part such that $X^2 = A$. Otherwise, a nonprincipal square root is returned.

If A is symmetric or Hermitian, its eigendecomposition (eigfact) is used to compute the square root. Otherwise, the square root is determined by means of the Björck-Hammarling method [BH83], which computes the complex Schur form (schur) and then the complex square root of the triangular factor.

RowVector(vector)

A lazy-view wrapper of an AbstractVector, which turns a length-n vector into a 1×n shaped row vector and represents the transpose of a vector (the elements are also transposed recursively). This type is usually constructed (and unwrapped) via the transpose function or .' operator (or related ctranspose or ' operator).

By convention, a vector can be multiplied by a matrix on its left (A * v) whereas a row vector can be multiplied by a matrix on its right (such that v.' * A = (A.' * v).'). It differs from a 1×n-sized matrix by the facts that its transpose returns a vector and the inner product v1.' * v2 returns a scalar, but will otherwise behave similarly.

source
ConjArray(array)

A lazy-view wrapper of an AbstractArray, taking the elementwise complex conjugate.

Computes eigenvalues d of A using implicitly restarted Lanczos or Arnoldi iterations for real symmetric or general nonsymmetric matrices respectively.

The following keyword arguments are supported:

  • nev: Number of eigenvalues

  • ncv: Number of Krylov vectors used in the computation; should satisfy nev+1 <= ncv <= n for real symmetric problems and nev+2 <= ncv <= n for other problems, where n is the size of the input matrix A. The default is ncv = max(20,2*nev+1). Note that these restrictions limit the input matrix A to be of dimension at least 2.

:BEcompute half of the eigenvalues from each end of the spectrum, biased in favor of the high end. (real symmetric A only)
  • tol: parameter defining the relative tolerance for convergence of Ritz values (eigenvalue estimates). A Ritz value $θ$ is considered converged when its associated residual is less than or equal to the product of tol and $max(ɛ^{2/3}, |θ|)$, where ɛ = eps(real(eltype(A)))/2 is LAPACK's machine epsilon. The residual associated with $θ$ and its corresponding Ritz vector $v$ is defined as the norm $||Av - vθ||$. The specified value of tol should be positive; otherwise, it is ignored and $ɛ$ is used instead. Default: $ɛ$.

  • maxiter: Maximum number of iterations (default = 300)

  • sigma: Specifies the level shift used in inverse iteration. If nothing (default), defaults to ordinary (forward) iterations. Otherwise, find eigenvalues close to sigma using shift and invert iterations.

  • ritzvec: Returns the Ritz vectors v (eigenvectors) if true

  • v0: starting vector from which to start the iterations

eigs returns the nev requested eigenvalues in d, the corresponding Ritz vectors v (only if ritzvec=true), the number of converged eigenvalues nconv, the number of iterations niter and the number of matrix vector multiplications nmult, as well as the final residual vector resid.

Computes the largest singular values s of A using implicitly restarted Lanczos iterations derived from eigs.

Inputs

  • A: Linear operator whose singular values are desired. A may be represented as a subtype of AbstractArray, e.g., a sparse matrix, or any other type supporting the four methods size(A), eltype(A), A * vector, and A' * vector.

  • nsv: Number of singular values. Default: 6.

  • ritzvec: If true, return the left and right singular vectors left_sv and right_sv. If false, omit the singular vectors. Default: true.

  • tol: tolerance, see eigs.

  • maxiter: Maximum number of iterations, see eigs. Default: 1000.

  • ncv: Maximum size of the Krylov subspace, see eigs (there called nev). Default: 2*nsv.

  • u0: Initial guess for the first left Krylov vector. It may have length m (the first dimension of A), or 0.

  • v0: Initial guess for the first right Krylov vector. It may have length n (the second dimension of A), or 0.

Outputs

  • svd: An SVD object containing the left singular vectors, the requested values, and the right singular vectors. If ritzvec = false, the left and right singular vectors will be empty.

  • nconv: Number of converged singular values.

  • niter: Number of iterations.

  • nmult: Number of matrix–vector products used.

  • resid: Final residual vector.

Implementation

svds(A) is formally equivalent to calling eigs to perform implicitly restarted Lanczos tridiagonalization on the Hermitian matrix $\begin{pmatrix} 0 & A^\prime \\ A & 0 \end{pmatrix}$, whose eigenvalues are plus and minus the singular values of $A$.

Base.LinAlg.peakflopsFunction.
peakflops(n::Integer=2000; parallel::Bool=false)

peakflops computes the peak flop rate of the computer by using double precision gemm!. By default, if no arguments are specified, it multiplies a matrix of size n x n, where n = 2000. If the underlying BLAS is using multiple threads, higher flop rates are realized. The number of BLAS threads can be set with BLAS.set_num_threads(n).

If the keyword argument parallel is set to true, peakflops is run in parallel on all the worker processors. The flop rate of the entire parallel computer is returned. When running in parallel, only 1 BLAS thread is used. The argument n still refers to the size of the problem that is solved on each processor.

Low-level matrix operations

Matrix operations involving transpositions operations like A' \ B are converted by the Julia parser into calls to specially named functions like Ac_ldiv_B. If you want to overload these operations for your own types, then it is useful to know the names of these functions.

Also, in many cases there are in-place versions of matrix operations that allow you to supply a pre-allocated output vector or matrix. This is useful when optimizing critical code in order to avoid the overhead of repeated allocations. These in-place operations are suffixed with ! below (e.g. A_mul_B!) according to the usual Julia convention.

Base.LinAlg.A_ldiv_B!Function.
A_ldiv_B!([Y,] A, B) -> Y

Compute A \ B in-place and store the result in Y, returning the result. If only two arguments are passed, then A_ldiv_B!(A, B) overwrites B with the result.

The argument A should not be a matrix. Rather, instead of matrices it should be a factorization object (e.g. produced by factorize or cholfact). The reason for this is that factorization itself is both expensive and typically allocates memory (although it can also be done in-place via, e.g., lufact!), and performance-critical situations requiring A_ldiv_B! usually also require fine-grained control over the factorization of A.

BLAS Functions

In Julia (as in much of scientific computation), dense linear-algebra operations are based on the LAPACK library, which in turn is built on top of basic linear-algebra building-blocks known as the BLAS. There are highly optimized implementations of BLAS available for every computer architecture, and sometimes in high-performance linear algebra routines it is useful to call the BLAS functions directly.

Base.LinAlg.BLAS provides wrappers for some of the BLAS functions. Those BLAS functions that overwrite one of the input arrays have names ending in '!'. Usually, a BLAS function has four methods defined, for Float64, Float32, Complex128, and Complex64 arrays.

BLAS Character Arguments

Many BLAS functions accept arguments that determine whether to transpose an argument (trans), which triangle of a matrix to reference (uplo or ul), whether the diagonal of a triangular matrix can be assumed to be all ones (dA) or which side of a matrix multiplication the input argument belongs on (side). The possiblities are:

Multplication Order

sideMeaning
'L'The argument goes on the left side of a matrix-matrix operation.
'R'The argument goes on the right side of a matrix-matrix operation.

Triangle Referencing

uplo/ulMeaning
'U'Only the upper triangle of the matrix will be used.
'L'Only the lower triangle of the matrix will be used.

Transposition Operation

trans/tXMeaning
'N'The input matrix X is not transposed or conjugated.
'T'The input matrix X will be transposed.
'C'The input matrix X will be conjugated and transposed.

Unit Diagonal
