sage.combinat.vector_partition.IntegerVectorsIterator(vect, min=None)[source]#

Return an iterator over the list of integer vectors which are componentwise less than or equal to vect, and lexicographically greater than or equal to min.

INPUT:

  • vect – A list of non-negative integers

  • min – A list of non-negative integers dominated elementwise by vect

OUTPUT:

A list in lexicographic order of all integer vectors (as lists) which are dominated elementwise by vect and are greater than or equal to min in lexicographic order.

EXAMPLES:

sage: from sage.combinat.vector_partition import IntegerVectorsIterator
sage: list(IntegerVectorsIterator([1, 1]))
[[0, 0], [0, 1], [1, 0], [1, 1]]

sage: list(IntegerVectorsIterator([1, 1], min = [1, 0]))
[[1, 0], [1, 1]]

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> from sage.combinat.vector_partition import IntegerVectorsIterator
>>> list(IntegerVectorsIterator([Integer(1), Integer(1)]))
[[0, 0], [0, 1], [1, 0], [1, 1]]

>>> list(IntegerVectorsIterator([Integer(1), Integer(1)], min = [Integer(1), Integer(0)]))
[[1, 0], [1, 1]]
class sage.combinat.vector_partition.VectorPartition(parent, vecpar)[source]#

Bases: CombinatorialElement

A vector partition is a multiset of integer vectors.

partition_at_vertex(i)[source]#

Return the partition obtained by sorting the i-th elements of the vectors in the vector partition.

EXAMPLES:

sage: V = VectorPartition([[1, 2, 1], [2, 4, 1]])
sage: V.partition_at_vertex(1)
[4, 2]

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> V = VectorPartition([[Integer(1), Integer(2), Integer(1)], [Integer(2), Integer(4), Integer(1)]])
>>> V.partition_at_vertex(Integer(1))
[4, 2]
sum()[source]#

Return the sum vector as a list.

EXAMPLES:

sage: V = VectorPartition([[3, 2, 1], [2, 2, 1]])
sage: V.sum()
[5, 4, 2]

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> V = VectorPartition([[Integer(3), Integer(2), Integer(1)], [Integer(2), Integer(2), Integer(1)]])
>>> V.sum()
[5, 4, 2]
class sage.combinat.vector_partition.VectorPartitions(vec, min=None, parts=None, distinct=False, is_repeatable=None)[source]#

Bases: UniqueRepresentation, Parent

Class of all vector partitions of vec with all parts greater than or equal to min in lexicographic order, with parts from parts.

A vector partition of vec is a list of vectors with non-negative integer entries whose sum is vec.

INPUT:

  • vec – Integer vector

  • min – Integer vector dominated elementwise by vec

  • parts – Finite list of possible parts

  • distinct – Boolean, set to True if only vector partitions with distinct parts are enumerated

  • is_repeatable – Boolean function on parts which gives True in parts that can be repeated

EXAMPLES:

If min is not specified, then the class of all vector partitions of vec is created:

sage: VP = VectorPartitions([2, 2])
sage: for vecpar in VP:
....:     print(vecpar)
[[0, 1], [0, 1], [1, 0], [1, 0]]
[[0, 1], [0, 1], [2, 0]]
[[0, 1], [1, 0], [1, 1]]
[[0, 1], [2, 1]]
[[0, 2], [1, 0], [1, 0]]
[[0, 2], [2, 0]]
[[1, 0], [1, 2]]
[[1, 1], [1, 1]]
[[2, 2]]

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> VP = VectorPartitions([Integer(2), Integer(2)])
>>> for vecpar in VP:
...     print(vecpar)
[[0, 1], [0, 1], [1, 0], [1, 0]]
[[0, 1], [0, 1], [2, 0]]
[[0, 1], [1, 0], [1, 1]]
[[0, 1], [2, 1]]
[[0, 2], [1, 0], [1, 0]]
[[0, 2], [2, 0]]
[[1, 0], [1, 2]]
[[1, 1], [1, 1]]
[[2, 2]]

If distinct is set to be True, then distinct part partitions are created:

sage: VP = VectorPartitions([2,2], distinct = True)
sage: list(VP)
[[[0, 1], [1, 0], [1, 1]],
 [[0, 1], [2, 1]],
 [[0, 2], [2, 0]],
 [[1, 0], [1, 2]],
 [[2, 2]]]

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> VP = VectorPartitions([Integer(2),Integer(2)], distinct = True)
>>> list(VP)
[[[0, 1], [1, 0], [1, 1]],
 [[0, 1], [2, 1]],
 [[0, 2], [2, 0]],
 [[1, 0], [1, 2]],
 [[2, 2]]]

If min is specified, then the class consists of only those vector partitions whose parts are all greater than or equal to min in lexicographic order:

sage: VP = VectorPartitions([2, 2], min = [1, 0])
sage: for vecpar in VP:
....:     print(vecpar)
[[1, 0], [1, 2]]
[[1, 1], [1, 1]]
[[2, 2]]
sage: VP = VectorPartitions([2, 2], min = [1, 0], distinct = True)
sage: for vecpar in VP:
....:     print(vecpar)
[[1, 0], [1, 2]]
[[2, 2]]

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> VP = VectorPartitions([Integer(2), Integer(2)], min = [Integer(1), Integer(0)])
>>> for vecpar in VP:
...     print(vecpar)
[[1, 0], [1, 2]]
[[1, 1], [1, 1]]
[[2, 2]]
>>> VP = VectorPartitions([Integer(2), Integer(2)], min = [Integer(1), Integer(0)], distinct = True)
>>> for vecpar in VP:
...     print(vecpar)
[[1, 0], [1, 2]]
[[2, 2]]

If parts is specified, then the class consists only of those vector partitions whose parts are from parts:

sage: Vec_Par = VectorPartitions([2,2], parts=[[0,1],[1,0],[1,1]])
sage: list(Vec_Par)
[[[0, 1], [0, 1], [1, 0], [1, 0]], [[0, 1], [1, 0], [1, 1]], [[1, 1], [1, 1]]]

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> Vec_Par = VectorPartitions([Integer(2),Integer(2)], parts=[[Integer(0),Integer(1)],[Integer(1),Integer(0)],[Integer(1),Integer(1)]])
>>> list(Vec_Par)
[[[0, 1], [0, 1], [1, 0], [1, 0]], [[0, 1], [1, 0], [1, 1]], [[1, 1], [1, 1]]]

If is_repeatable is specified, then the parts which satisfy the boolean function is_repeatable are allowed to be repeated:

sage: Vector_Partitions = VectorPartitions([2,2], parts=[[0,1],[1,0],[1,1]], is_repeatable=lambda vec: sum(vec)%2!=0)
sage: list(Vector_Partitions)
[[[0, 1], [0, 1], [1, 0], [1, 0]], [[0, 1], [1, 0], [1, 1]]]

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> Vector_Partitions = VectorPartitions([Integer(2),Integer(2)], parts=[[Integer(0),Integer(1)],[Integer(1),Integer(0)],[Integer(1),Integer(1)]], is_repeatable=lambda vec: sum(vec)%Integer(2)!=Integer(0))
>>> list(Vector_Partitions)
[[[0, 1], [0, 1], [1, 0], [1, 0]], [[0, 1], [1, 0], [1, 1]]]
