scipy.linalg.expm_frechet#

scipy.linalg.expm_frechet(A, E, method=None, compute_expm=True, check_finite=True)[source]#

Frechet derivative of the matrix exponential of A in the direction E.

Parameters
A(N, N) array_like

Matrix of which to take the matrix exponential.

E(N, N) array_like

Matrix direction in which to take the Frechet derivative.

methodstr, optional

Choice of algorithm. Should be one of

  • SPS (default)

  • blockEnlarge

compute_expmbool, optional

Whether to compute also expm_A in addition to expm_frechet_AE. Default is True.

check_finitebool, optional

Whether to check that the input matrix contains only finite numbers. Disabling may give a performance gain, but may result in problems (crashes, non-termination) if the inputs do contain infinities or NaNs.

Returns
expm_Andarray

Matrix exponential of A.

expm_frechet_AEndarray

Frechet derivative of the matrix exponential of A in the direction E.

For compute_expm = False, only expm_frechet_AE is returned.

See also

expm

Compute the exponential of a matrix.

Notes

This section describes the available implementations that can be selected by the method parameter. The default method is SPS.

Method blockEnlarge is a naive algorithm.

Method SPS is Scaling-Pade-Squaring [1]. It is a sophisticated implementation which should take only about 3/8 as much time as the naive implementation. The asymptotics are the same.

New in version 0.13.0.
