Chart Functions#

In the context of a topological manifold \(M\) over a topological field \(K\), a chart function is a function from a chart codomain to \(K\). In other words, a chart function is a \(K\)-valued function of the coordinates associated to some chart. The internal coordinate expressions of chart functions and calculus on them are taken in charge by different calculus methods, at the choice of the user:

  • Sage’s default symbolic engine (Pynac + Maxima), implemented via the Symbolic Ring (SR)

  • SymPy engine, denoted sympy hereafter

See CalculusMethod for details.

class sage.manifolds.chart_func.ChartFunction(parent, expression=None, calc_method=None, expansion_symbol=None, order=None)#

Bases: AlgebraElement, ModuleElementWithMutability

Function of coordinates of a given chart.

If \((U, \varphi)\) is a chart on a topological manifold \(M\) of dimension \(n\) over a topological field \(K\), a chart function associated to \((U, \varphi)\) is a map

\[\begin{split}\begin{array}{llcl} f:& V \subset K^n & \longrightarrow & K \\ & (x^1, \ldots, x^n) & \longmapsto & f(x^1, \ldots, x^n), \end{array}\end{split}\]

where \(V\) is the codomain of \(\varphi\). In other words, \(f\) is a \(K\)-valued function of the coordinates associated to the chart \((U, \varphi)\).

The chart function \(f\) can be represented by expressions pertaining to different calculus methods; the currently implemented ones are

  • SR (Sage’s Symbolic Ring)

  • SymPy

See expr() for details.

INPUT:

  • parent – the algebra of chart functions on the chart \((U, \varphi)\)

  • expression – (default: None) a symbolic expression representing \(f(x^1, \ldots, x^n)\), where \((x^1, \ldots, x^n)\) are the coordinates of the chart \((U, \varphi)\)

  • calc_method – string (default: None): the calculus method with respect to which the internal expression of self must be initialized from expression; one of

    • 'SR': Sage’s default symbolic engine (Symbolic Ring)

    • 'sympy': SymPy

    • None: the chart current calculus method is assumed

  • expansion_symbol – (default: None) symbolic variable (the “small parameter”) with respect to which the coordinate expression is expanded in power series (around the zero value of this variable)

  • order – integer (default: None); the order of the expansion if expansion_symbol is not None; the order is defined as the degree of the polynomial representing the truncated power series in expansion_symbol

    Warning

    The value of order is \(n-1\), where \(n\) is the order of the big \(O\) in the power series expansion

EXAMPLES:

A symbolic chart function on a 2-dimensional manifold:

sage: M = Manifold(2, 'M', structure='topological')
sage: X.<x,y> = M.chart()
sage: f = X.function(x^2+3*y+1)
sage: type(f)
<class 'sage.manifolds.chart_func.ChartFunctionRing_with_category.element_class'>
sage: f.display()
(x, y) ↦ x^2 + 3*y + 1
sage: f(x,y)
x^2 + 3*y + 1

The symbolic expression is returned when asking for the direct display of the function:

sage: f
x^2 + 3*y + 1
sage: latex(f)
x^{2} + 3 \, y + 1

A similar output is obtained by means of the method expr():

sage: f.expr()
x^2 + 3*y + 1

The expression returned by expr() is by default a Sage symbolic expression:

sage: type(f.expr())
<class 'sage.symbolic.expression.Expression'>

A SymPy expression can also be asked for:

sage: f.expr('sympy')
x**2 + 3*y + 1
sage: type(f.expr('sympy'))
<class 'sympy.core.add.Add'>

The value of the function at specified coordinates is obtained by means of the standard parentheses notation:

sage: f(2,-1)
2
sage: var('a b')
(a, b)
sage: f(a,b)
a^2 + 3*b + 1

An unspecified chart function:

sage: g = X.function(function('G')(x, y))
sage: g
G(x, y)
sage: g.display()
(x, y) ↦ G(x, y)
sage: g.expr()
G(x, y)
sage: g(2,3)
G(2, 3)

Coordinate functions can be compared to other values:

sage: f = X.function(x^2+3*y+1)
sage: f == 2
False
sage: f == x^2 + 3*y + 1
True
sage: g = X.function(x*y)
sage: f == g
False
sage: h = X.function(x^2+3*y+1)
sage: f == h
True

A coercion by means of the restriction is implemented:

sage: D = M.open_subset('D')
sage: X_D = X.restrict(D, x^2+y^2<1)  # open disk
sage: c = X_D.function(x^2)
sage: c + f
2*x^2 + 3*y + 1

Expansion to a given order with respect to a small parameter:

sage: t = var('t')  # the small parameter
sage: f = X.function(cos(t)*x*y, expansion_symbol=t, order=2)

The expansion is triggered by the call to simplify():

sage: f
x*y*cos(t)
sage: f.simplify()
-1/2*t^2*x*y + x*y

Differences between ChartFunction and callable symbolic expressions

Callable symbolic expressions are defined directly from symbolic expressions of the coordinates:

sage: f0(x,y) = x^2 + 3*y + 1
sage: type(f0)
<class 'sage.symbolic.expression.Expression'>
sage: f0
(x, y) |--> x^2 + 3*y + 1
sage: f0(x,y)
x^2 + 3*y + 1

To get an output similar to that of f0 for a chart function, we must use the method display():

sage: f = X.function(x^2+3*y+1)
sage: f
x^2 + 3*y + 1
sage: f.display()
(x, y) ↦ x^2 + 3*y + 1
sage: f(x,y)
x^2 + 3*y + 1

More importantly, instances of ChartFunction differ from callable symbolic expression by the automatic simplifications in all operations. For instance, adding the two callable symbolic expressions:

sage: f0(x,y,z) = cos(x)^2 ; g0(x,y,z) = sin(x)^2

results in:

sage: f0 + g0
(x, y, z) |--> cos(x)^2 + sin(x)^2

To get \(1\), one has to call simplify_trig():

sage: (f0 + g0).simplify_trig()
(x, y, z) |--> 1

On the contrary, the sum of the corresponding ChartFunction instances is automatically simplified (see simplify_chain_real() and simplify_chain_generic() for details):

sage: f = X.function(cos(x)^2) ; g = X.function(sin(x)^2)
sage: f + g
1

Another difference regards the display of partial derivatives: for callable symbolic functions, it involves diff:

sage: g = function('g')(x, y)
sage: f0(x,y) = diff(g, x) + diff(g, y)
sage: f0
(x, y) |--> diff(g(x, y), x) + diff(g(x, y), y)

while for chart functions, the display is more “textbook” like:

sage: f = X.function(diff(g, x) + diff(g, y))
sage: f
d(g)/dx + d(g)/dy

The difference is even more dramatic on LaTeX outputs:

sage: latex(f0)
\left( x, y \right) \ {\mapsto} \ \frac{\partial}{\partial x}g\left(x, y\right) + \frac{\partial}{\partial y}g\left(x, y\right)
sage: latex(f)
\frac{\partial\,g}{\partial x} + \frac{\partial\,g}{\partial y}

Note that this regards only the display of coordinate functions: internally, the diff notation is still used, as we can check by asking for the symbolic expression stored in f:

sage: f.expr()
diff(g(x, y), x) + diff(g(x, y), y)

One can switch to Pynac notation by changing the options:

sage: Manifold.options.textbook_output=False
sage: latex(f)
\frac{\partial}{\partial x}g\left(x, y\right) + \frac{\partial}{\partial y}g\left(x, y\right)
sage: Manifold.options._reset()
sage: latex(f)
\frac{\partial\,g}{\partial x} + \frac{\partial\,g}{\partial y}

Another difference between ChartFunction and callable symbolic expression is the possibility to switch off the display of the arguments of unspecified functions. Consider for instance:

sage: f = X.function(function('u')(x, y) * function('v')(x, y))
sage: f
u(x, y)*v(x, y)
sage: f0(x,y) = function('u')(x, y) * function('v')(x, y)
sage: f0
(x, y) |--> u(x, y)*v(x, y)

If there is a clear understanding that \(u\) and \(v\) are functions of \((x,y)\), the explicit mention of the latter can be cumbersome in lengthy tensor expressions. We can switch it off by:

sage: Manifold.options.omit_function_arguments=True
sage: f
u*v

Note that neither the callable symbolic expression f0 nor the internal expression of f is affected by the above command:

sage: f0
(x, y) |--> u(x, y)*v(x, y)
sage: f.expr()
u(x, y)*v(x, y)

We revert to the default behavior by:

sage: Manifold.options._reset()
sage: f
u(x, y)*v(x, y)
__call__(*coords, **options)#

Compute the value of the function at specified coordinates.

INPUT:

  • *coords – list of coordinates \((x^1, \ldots, x^n)\), where the function \(f\) is to be evaluated

  • **options – allows to pass simplify=False to disable the call of the simplification chain on the result

OUTPUT:

  • the value \(f(x^1, \ldots, x^n)\), where \(f\) is the current chart function

OUTPUT:

  • a ChartFunction representing the partial derivative \(\frac{\partial f}{\partial x^i}\)

EXAMPLES:

disp()#

The output is either text-formatted (console mode) or LaTeX-formatted (notebook mode).

EXAMPLES:

Coordinate function on a 2-dimensional manifold:

sage: M = Manifold(2, 'M', structure='topological')
sage: X.<x,y> = M.chart()
sage: f = X.function(cos(x*y/2))
sage: f.display()
(x, y) ↦ cos(1/2*x*y)
sage: latex(f.display())
\left(x, y\right) \mapsto \cos\left(\frac{1}{2} \, x y\right)

A shortcut is disp():

sage: f.disp()
(x, y) ↦ cos(1/2*x*y)

Display of the zero function:

sage: X.zero_function().display()
(x, y) ↦ 0
exp()#

Exponential of self.

OUTPUT:

  • chart function \(\exp(f)\), where \(f\) is the current chart function

EXAMPLES:

sage: M = Manifold(2, 'M', structure='topological')
sage: X.<x,y> = M.chart()
sage: f = X.function(x+y)
sage: f.exp()
e^(x + y)
sage: exp(f) # equivalent to f.exp()
e^(x + y)
sage: exp(f).display()
(x, y) ↦ e^(x + y)
sage: exp(X.zero_function())
1

The same test with SymPy:

sage: X.calculus_method().set('sympy')
sage: f = X.function(x+y)
sage: f.exp()
exp(x + y)
sage: exp(f) # equivalent to f.exp()
exp(x + y)
sage: exp(f).display()
(x, y) ↦ exp(x + y)
sage: exp(X.zero_function())
1
expand()#

Expand the coordinate expression of self.

OUTPUT:

  • self with its expression expanded

EXAMPLES:

Expanding a 2-dimensional chart function:

sage: M = Manifold(2, 'M', structure='topological')
sage: X.<x,y> = M.chart()
sage: f = X.function((x - y)^2)
sage: f.display()
(x, y) ↦ (x - y)^2
sage: f.expand()
x^2 - 2*x*y + y^2

The method expand() has changed the expression of f:

sage: f.display()
(x, y) ↦ x^2 - 2*x*y + y^2

The same test with SymPy

sage: X.calculus_method().set('sympy')
sage: g = X.function((x - y)^2)
sage: g.expand()
x**2 - 2*x*y + y**2
expr(method=None)#

Return the symbolic expression of self in terms of the chart coordinates, as an object of a specified calculus method.

INPUT:

  • method – string (default: None): the calculus method which the returned expression belongs to; one of

    • 'SR': Sage’s default symbolic engine (Symbolic Ring)

    • 'sympy': SymPy

    • None: the chart current calculus method is assumed

OUTPUT:

EXAMPLES:

Chart function on a 2-dimensional manifold:

sage: M = Manifold(2, 'M', structure='topological')
sage: X.<x,y> = M.chart()
sage: f = X.function(x^2+y)
sage: f.expr()
x^2 + y
sage: type(f.expr())
<class 'sage.symbolic.expression.Expression'>

Asking for the SymPy expression:

sage: f.expr('sympy')
x**2 + y
sage: type(f.expr('sympy'))
<class 'sympy.core.add.Add'>

The default corresponds to the current calculus method, here the one based on the Symbolic Ring SR:

sage: f.expr() is f.expr('SR')
True

If we change the current calculus method on chart X, we change the default:

sage: X.calculus_method().set('sympy')
sage: f.expr()
x**2 + y
sage: f.expr() is f.expr('sympy')
True
sage: X.calculus_method().set('SR')  # revert back to SR

Internally, the expressions corresponding to various calculus methods are stored in the dictionary _express:

sage: for method in sorted(f._express):
....:     print("'{}': {}".format(method, f._express[method]))
....:
'SR': x^2 + y
'sympy': x**2 + y

The method expr() is useful for accessing to all the symbolic expression functionalities in Sage; for instance:

sage: var('a')
a
sage: f = X.function(a*x*y); f.display()
(x, y) ↦ a*x*y
sage: f.expr()
a*x*y
sage: f.expr().subs(a=2)
2*x*y

Note that for substituting the value of a coordinate, the function call can be used as well:

sage: f(x,3)
3*a*x
sage: bool( f(x,3) == f.expr().subs(y=3) )
True
factor()#

Factorize the coordinate expression of self.

OUTPUT:

  • self with its expression factorized

EXAMPLES:

Factorization of a 2-dimensional chart function:

sage: M = Manifold(2, 'M', structure='topological')
sage: X.<x,y> = M.chart()
sage: f = X.function(x^2 + 2*x*y + y^2)
sage: f.display()
(x, y) ↦ x^2 + 2*x*y + y^2
sage: f.factor()
(x + y)^2

The method factor() has changed the expression of f:

sage: f.display()
(x, y) ↦ (x + y)^2

The same test with SymPy

sage: X.calculus_method().set('sympy')
sage: g = X.function(x^2 + 2*x*y + y^2)
sage: g.display()
(x, y) ↦ x**2 + 2*x*y + y**2
sage: g.factor()
(x + y)**2
is_trivial_one()#

Check if self is trivially equal to one without any simplification.

This method is supposed to be fast as compared with self == 1 and is intended to be used in library code where trying to obtain a mathematically correct result by applying potentially expensive rewrite rules is not desirable.

EXAMPLES:

sage: M = Manifold(2, 'M', structure='topological')
sage: X.<x,y> = M.chart()
sage: f = X.function(1)
sage: f.is_trivial_one()
True
sage: f = X.function(float(1.0))
sage: f.is_trivial_one()
True
sage: f = X.function(x-x+1)
sage: f.is_trivial_one()
True
sage: X.one_function().is_trivial_one()
True

No simplification is attempted, so that False is returned for non-trivial cases:

sage: f = X.function(cos(x)^2 + sin(x)^2)
sage: f.is_trivial_one()
False

On the contrary, the method is_zero() and the direct comparison to one involve some simplification algorithms and return True:

sage: (f - 1).is_zero()
True
sage: f == 1
True
is_trivial_zero()#

Check if self is trivially equal to zero without any simplification.

This method is supposed to be fast as compared with self.is_zero() or self == 0 and is intended to be used in library code where trying to obtain a mathematically correct result by applying potentially expensive rewrite rules is not desirable.

EXAMPLES:

sage: M = Manifold(2, 'M', structure='topological')
sage: X.<x,y> = M.chart()
sage: f = X.function(0)
sage: f.is_trivial_zero()
True
sage: f = X.function(float(0.0))
sage: f.is_trivial_zero()
True
sage: f = X.function(x-x)
sage: f.is_trivial_zero()
True
sage: X.zero_function().is_trivial_zero()
True

No simplification is attempted, so that False is returned for non-trivial cases:

sage: f = X.function(cos(x)^2 + sin(x)^2 - 1)
sage: f.is_trivial_zero()
False

On the contrary, the method is_zero() and the direct comparison to zero involve some simplification algorithms and return True:

sage: f.is_zero()
True
sage: f == 0
True
is_unit()#

Return True iff self is not trivially zero since most chart functions are invertible and an actual computation would take too much time.

EXAMPLES:

sage: M = Manifold(2, 'M', structure='topological')
sage: X.<x,y> = M.chart()
sage: f = X.function(x^2+3*y+1)
sage: f.is_unit()
True
sage: zero = X.function(0)
sage: zero.is_unit()
False
log(base=None)#

Logarithm of self.

INPUT:

  • base – (default: None) base of the logarithm; if None, the natural logarithm (i.e. logarithm to base \(e\)) is returned

OUTPUT:

  • chart function \(\log_a(f)\), where \(f\) is the current chart function and \(a\) is the base

EXAMPLES:

sage: M = Manifold(2, 'M', structure='topological')
sage: X.<x,y> = M.chart()
sage: f = X.function(x+y)
sage: f.log()
log(x + y)
sage: log(f) # equivalent to f.log()
log(x + y)
sage: log(f).display()
(x, y) ↦ log(x + y)
sage: f.log(2)
log(x + y)/log(2)
sage: log(f, 2)
log(x + y)/log(2)

The same test with SymPy:

sage: X.calculus_method().set('sympy')
sage: f = X.function(x+y)
sage: f.log()
log(x + y)
sage: log(f) # equivalent to f.log()
log(x + y)
sage: log(f).display()
(x, y) ↦ log(x + y)
sage: f.log(2)
log(x + y)/log(2)
sage: log(f, 2)
log(x + y)/log(2)
scalar_field(name=None, latex_name=None)#

Construct the scalar field that has self as coordinate expression.

The domain of the scalar field is the open subset covered by the chart on which self is defined.

INPUT:

  • name – (default: None) name given to the scalar field

  • latex_name – (default: None) LaTeX symbol to denote the scalar field; if None, the LaTeX symbol is set to name

OUTPUT:

EXAMPLES:

Construction of a scalar field on a 2-dimensional manifold:

sage: M = Manifold(2, 'M', structure='topological')
sage: c_xy.<x,y> = M.chart()
sage: fc = c_xy.function(x+2*y^3)
sage: f = fc.scalar_field() ; f
Scalar field on the 2-dimensional topological manifold M
sage: f.display()
M → ℝ
(x, y) ↦ 2*y^3 + x
sage: f.coord_function(c_xy) is fc
True
set_expr(calc_method, expression)#

Add an expression in a particular calculus method self. Some control is done to verify the consistency between the different representations of the same expression.

INPUT:

  • calc_method – calculus method

  • expression – symbolic expression

EXAMPLES:

sage: M = Manifold(2, 'M', structure='topological')
sage: X.<x,y> = M.chart()
sage: f = X.function(1+x^2)
sage: f._repr_()
'x^2 + 1'
sage: f.set_expr('sympy','x**2+1')
sage: f  # indirect doctest
x^2 + 1

sage: g = X.function(1+x^3)
sage: g._repr_()
'x^3 + 1'
sage: g.set_expr('sympy','x**2+y')
Traceback (most recent call last):

ValueError: Expressions are not equal
simplify()#

Simplify the coordinate expression of self.

For details about the employed chain of simplifications for the SR calculus method, see simplify_chain_real() for chart functions on real manifolds and simplify_chain_generic() for the generic case.

If self has been defined with the small parameter expansion_symbol and some truncation order, the coordinate expression of self will be expanded in power series of that parameter and truncated to the given order.

OUTPUT:

  • self with its coordinate expression simplified

EXAMPLES:

Simplification of a chart function on a 2-dimensional manifold:

sage: M = Manifold(2, 'M', structure='topological')
sage: X.<x,y> = M.chart()
sage: f = X.function(cos(x)^2 + sin(x)^2 + sqrt(x^2))
sage: f.display()
(x, y) ↦ cos(x)^2 + sin(x)^2 + abs(x)
sage: f.simplify()
abs(x) + 1

The method simplify() has changed the expression of f:

sage: f.display()
(x, y) ↦ abs(x) + 1

Another example:

sage: f = X.function((x^2-1)/(x+1)); f
(x^2 - 1)/(x + 1)
sage: f.simplify()
x - 1

Examples taking into account the declared range of a coordinate:

sage: M = Manifold(2, 'M', structure='topological')
sage: X.<x,y> = M.chart('x:(1,+oo) y')
sage: f = X.function(sqrt(x^2-2*x+1)); f
sqrt(x^2 - 2*x + 1)
sage: f.simplify()
x - 1
sage: forget()  # to clear the previous assumption on x
sage: M = Manifold(2, 'M', structure='topological')
sage: X.<x,y> = M.chart('x:(-oo,0) y')
sage: f = X.function(sqrt(x^2-2*x+1)); f
sqrt(x^2 - 2*x + 1)
sage: f.simplify()
-x + 1

The same tests with SymPy:

sage: forget()  # to clear the previous assumption on x
sage: M = Manifold(2, 'M', structure='topological')
sage: X.<x,y> = M.chart(calc_method='sympy')
sage: f = X.function(cos(x)^2 + sin(x)^2 + sqrt(x^2)); f
sin(x)**2 + cos(x)**2 + Abs(x)
sage: f.simplify()
Abs(x) + 1
sage: f = X.function((x^2-1)/(x+1)); f
(x**2 - 1)/(x + 1)
sage: f.simplify()
x - 1
sage: M = Manifold(2, 'M', structure='topological')
sage: X.<x,y> = M.chart('x:(1,+oo) y', calc_method='sympy')
sage: f = X.function(sqrt(x^2-2*x+1)); f
sqrt(x**2 - 2*x + 1)
sage: f.simplify()
x - 1
sage: forget()  # to clear the previous assumption on x
sage: M = Manifold(2, 'M', structure='topological')
sage: X.<x,y> = M.chart('x:(-oo,0) y', calc_method='sympy')
sage: f = X.function(sqrt(x^2-2*x+1)); f
sqrt(x**2 - 2*x + 1)
sage: f.simplify()
1 - x

Power series expansion with respect to a small parameter \(t\) (at the moment, this is implemented only for the SR calculus backend, hence the first line below):

sage: X.calculus_method().set('SR')
sage: t = var('t')
sage: f = X.function(exp(t*x), expansion_symbol=t, order=3)

At this stage, \(f\) is not expanded in power series:

sage: f
e^(t*x)

Invoking simplify() triggers the expansion to the given order:

sage: f.simplify()
1/6*t^3*x^3 + 1/2*t^2*x^2 + t*x + 1
sage: f.display()
(x, y) ↦ 1/6*t^3*x^3 + 1/2*t^2*x^2 + t*x + 1
sin()#

sage: f = X.function(x*y)
sage: f.sin()
sin(x*y)

class sage.manifolds.chart_func.MultiCoordFunction(chart, expressions)#

Bases: SageObject, Mutability

Coordinate function to some Cartesian power of the base field.

If \(n\) and \(m\) are two positive integers and \((U, \varphi)\) is a chart on a topological manifold \(M\) of dimension \(n\) over a topological field \(K\), a multi-coordinate function associated to \((U, \varphi)\) is a map

\[\begin{split}\begin{array}{llcl} f:& V \subset K^n & \longrightarrow & K^m \\ & (x^1, \ldots, x^n) & \longmapsto & (f_1(x^1, \ldots, x^n), \ldots, f_m(x^1, \ldots, x^n)), \end{array}\end{split}\]

where \(V\) is the codomain of \(\varphi\). In other words, \(f\) is a \(K^m\)-valued function of the coordinates associated to the chart \((U, \varphi)\). Each component \(f_i\) (\(1 \leq i \leq m\)) is a coordinate function and is therefore stored as a ChartFunction.

INPUT:

  • chart – the chart \((U, \varphi)\)

  • expressions – list (or tuple) of length \(m\) of elements to construct the coordinate functions \(f_i\) (\(1 \leq i \leq m\)); for symbolic coordinate functions, this must be symbolic expressions involving the chart coordinates, while for numerical coordinate functions, this must be data file names

EXAMPLES:

A function \(f: V \subset \RR^2 \longrightarrow \RR^3\):

sage: forget()  # to clear the previous assumption on x
sage: M = Manifold(2, 'M', structure='topological')
sage: X.<x,y> = M.chart()
sage: f = X.multifunction(x-y, x*y, cos(x)*exp(y)); f

sage: latex(f)
\left(x - y, x y, \cos\left(x\right) e^{y}\right)

Each real-valued function \(f_i\) (\(1 \leq i \leq m\)) composing \(f\) can be accessed via the square-bracket operator, by providing \(i-1\) as an argument:

sage: f[0]
x - y
sage: f[1]
x*y
sage: f[2]
cos(x)*e^y

We can give a more verbose explanation of each function:

sage: f[0].display()
(x, y) ↦ x - y

Each f[i-1] is an instance of ChartFunction:

sage: isinstance(f[0], sage.manifolds.chart_func.ChartFunction)
True

A class MultiCoordFunction can represent a real-valued function (case \(m = 1\)), although one should rather employ the class ChartFunction for this purpose:

sage: g = X.multifunction(x*y^2)
sage: g(x,y)
(x*y^2,)

Evaluating the functions at specified coordinates:

sage: f(1,2)
(-1, 2, cos(1)*e^2)
sage: var('a b')
(a, b)
sage: f(a,b)
(a - b, a*b, cos(a)*e^b)

sage: X.<x,y> = M.chart()
sage: f = X.multifunction(x-y, x*y, cos(x)*exp(y))
sage: f.chart()
Chart (M, (x, y))
sage: f.chart() is X
True
expr(method=None)#

Return a tuple of data, the item no. \(i\) being sufficient to reconstruct the coordinate function no. \(i\).

In other words, if f is a multi-coordinate function, then f.chart().multifunction(*(f.expr())) results in a multi-coordinate function identical to f.

INPUT:

  • method – string (default: None): the calculus method which the returned expressions belong to; one of

    • 'SR': Sage’s default symbolic engine (Symbolic Ring)

    • 'sympy': SymPy

    • None: the chart current calculus method is assumed

OUTPUT:

  • a tuple of the symbolic expressions of the chart functions composing self

EXAMPLES:

sage: M = Manifold(2, 'M', structure='topological')
sage: X.<x,y> = M.chart()
sage: f = X.multifunction(x-y, x*y, cos(x)*exp(y))
sage: f.expr()
(x - y, x*y, cos(x)*e^y)

One shall always have:

True
jacobian()#

Return the Jacobian matrix of the system of coordinate functions.

jacobian() is a 2-dimensional array of size \(m \times n\), where \(m\) is the number of functions and \(n\) the number of coordinates, the generic element being \(J_{ij} = \frac{\partial f_i}{\partial x^j}\) with \(1 \leq i \leq m\) (row index) and \(1 \leq j \leq n\) (column index).

OUTPUT:

  • Jacobian matrix as a 2-dimensional array J of coordinate functions with J[i-1][j-1] being \(J_{ij} = \frac{\partial f_i}{\partial x^j}\) for \(1 \leq i \leq m\) and \(1 \leq j \leq n\)

EXAMPLES:

Jacobian of a set of 3 functions of 2 coordinates:

sage: M = Manifold(2, 'M', structure='topological')
sage: X.<x,y> = M.chart()
sage: f = X.multifunction(x-y, x*y, y^3*cos(x))
sage: f.jacobian()
[           1           -1]
[           y            x]
[ -y^3*sin(x) 3*y^2*cos(x)]

Each element of the result is a chart function:

sage: type(f.jacobian()[2,0])
<class 'sage.manifolds.chart_func.ChartFunctionRing_with_category.element_class'>
sage: f.jacobian()[2,0].display()
(x, y) ↦ -y^3*sin(x)

Test of the computation:

sage: [[f.jacobian()[i,j] == f[i].diff(j) for j in range(2)] for i in range(3)]
[[True, True], [True, True], [True, True]]

Test with start_index = 1:

sage: M = Manifold(2, 'M', structure='topological', start_index=1)
sage: X.<x,y> = M.chart()
sage: f = X.multifunction(x-y, x*y, y^3*cos(x))
sage: f.jacobian()
[           1           -1]
[           y            x]
[ -y^3*sin(x) 3*y^2*cos(x)]
sage: [[f.jacobian()[i,j] == f[i].diff(j+1) for j in range(2)]  # note the j+1
....:                                         for i in range(3)]
[[True, True], [True, True], [True, True]]
jacobian_det()#

Return the Jacobian determinant of the system of functions.

The number \(m\) of coordinate functions must equal the number \(n\) of coordinates.

OUTPUT:

EXAMPLES:

Jacobian determinant of a set of 2 functions of 2 coordinates:

sage: M = Manifold(2, 'M', structure='topological')
sage: X.<x,y> = M.chart()
sage: f = X.multifunction(x-y, x*y)
sage: f.jacobian_det()
x + y

The output of jacobian_det() is an instance of ChartFunction and can therefore be called on specific values of the coordinates, e.g. \((x,y) = (1,2)\):

sage: type(f.jacobian_det())
<class 'sage.manifolds.chart_func.ChartFunctionRing_with_category.element_class'>
sage: f.jacobian_det().display()
(x, y) ↦ x + y
sage: f.jacobian_det()(1,2)
3

The result is cached:

sage: f.jacobian_det() is f.jacobian_det()
True

We verify the determinant of the Jacobian:

sage: f.jacobian_det() == det(matrix([[f[i].diff(j).expr() for j in range(2)]
....:                                 for i in range(2)]))
True

An example using SymPy:

sage: M.set_calculus_method('sympy')
sage: g = X.multifunction(x*y^3, e^x)
sage: g.jacobian_det()
-3*x*y**2*exp(x)
sage: type(g.jacobian_det().expr())
<class 'sympy.core.mul.Mul'>

Jacobian determinant of a set of 3 functions of 3 coordinates:

sage: M = Manifold(3, 'M', structure='topological')
sage: X.<x,y,z> = M.chart()
sage: f = X.multifunction(x*y+z^2, z^2*x+y^2*z, (x*y*z)^3)
sage: f.jacobian_det().display()
(x, y, z) ↦ 6*x^3*y^5*z^3 - 3*x^4*y^3*z^4 - 12*x^2*y^4*z^5 + 6*x^3*y^2*z^6

We verify the determinant of the Jacobian:

sage: f.jacobian_det() == det(matrix([[f[i].diff(j).expr() for j in range(3)]
....:                                 for i in range(3)]))
True
set_immutable()#

Set self and all chart functions of self immutable.

EXAMPLES:

Declare a coordinate function immutable:

sage: M = Manifold(3, 'M', structure='topological')
sage: X.<x,y,z> = M.chart()
sage: f = X.multifunction(x+y+z, x*y*z)
sage: f.is_immutable()
False
sage: f.set_immutable()
sage: f.is_immutable()
True

The chart functions are now immutable, too:

sage: f[0].parent()
Ring of chart functions on Chart (M, (x, y, z))
sage: f[0].is_immutable()
True
