Name

invert_matrix_modT_invert_matrix_modInvertMatrixModInvertMatrixModinvert_matrix_mod — Invert a matrix.

Signature

Description

The operator invert_matrix_modinvert_matrix_modInvertMatrixModInvertMatrixModInvertMatrixModinvert_matrix_mod computes the inverse of the MatrixMatrixMatrixMatrixmatrixmatrix defined by the matrix handle MatrixIDMatrixIDMatrixIDMatrixIDmatrixIDmatrix_id. The input matrix is overwritten with the result. Access to the elements of the matrix is possible e.g. with the operator get_full_matrixget_full_matrixGetFullMatrixGetFullMatrixGetFullMatrixget_full_matrix.

For EpsilonEpsilonEpsilonEpsilonepsilonepsilon = 0, the inverse is computed. The type of the MatrixMatrixMatrixMatrixmatrixmatrix can be selected via MatrixTypeMatrixTypeMatrixTypeMatrixTypematrixTypematrix_type. The following values are supported: 'general'"general""general""general""general""general" for general, 'symmetric'"symmetric""symmetric""symmetric""symmetric""symmetric" for symmetric, 'positive_definite'"positive_definite""positive_definite""positive_definite""positive_definite""positive_definite" for symmetric positive definite, 'tridiagonal'"tridiagonal""tridiagonal""tridiagonal""tridiagonal""tridiagonal" for tridiagonal, 'upper_triangular'"upper_triangular""upper_triangular""upper_triangular""upper_triangular""upper_triangular" for upper triangular, 'permuted_upper_triangular'"permuted_upper_triangular""permuted_upper_triangular""permuted_upper_triangular""permuted_upper_triangular""permuted_upper_triangular" for permuted upper triangular, 'lower_triangular'"lower_triangular""lower_triangular""lower_triangular""lower_triangular""lower_triangular" for lower triangular, and 'permuted_lower_triangular'"permuted_lower_triangular""permuted_lower_triangular""permuted_lower_triangular""permuted_lower_triangular""permuted_lower_triangular" for permuted lower triangular matrices.

Example 1:

Example 2:

Example 3: For EpsilonEpsilonEpsilonEpsilonepsilonepsilon > 0, the pseudo inverse is computed using a singular value decomposition (SVD). During the computation, all singular values less than the value EpsilonEpsilonEpsilonEpsilonepsilonepsilon * the largest singular value are set to 0. For these values no internal division is done to prevent a division by zero. If a square matrix is computed with the SVD algorithm the computation takes more time. The type of the matrix must be set to MatrixTypeMatrixTypeMatrixTypeMatrixTypematrixTypematrix_type = 'general'"general""general""general""general""general".

Example:

Note: The relative accuracy of the floating point representation of the used data type (double) is EpsilonEpsilonEpsilonEpsilonepsilonepsilon = 2.2204e-16.

It should be also noted that in the examples there are differences in the meaning of the numbers of the output matrices: The results of the elements are per definition a certain value if the number of this value is shown as an integer number, e.g., 0 or 1. If the number is shown as a floating point number, e.g., 0.0 or 1.0, the value is computed.

Attention

For MatrixTypeMatrixTypeMatrixTypeMatrixTypematrixTypematrix_type = 'symmetric'"symmetric""symmetric""symmetric""symmetric""symmetric", 'positive_definite'"positive_definite""positive_definite""positive_definite""positive_definite""positive_definite", or 'upper_triangular'"upper_triangular""upper_triangular""upper_triangular""upper_triangular""upper_triangular" the upper triangular part of the input MatrixMatrixMatrixMatrixmatrixmatrix must contain the relevant information of the matrix. The strictly lower triangular part of the matrix is not referenced. For MatrixTypeMatrixTypeMatrixTypeMatrixTypematrixTypematrix_type = 'lower_triangular'"lower_triangular""lower_triangular""lower_triangular""lower_triangular""lower_triangular" the lower triangular part of the input MatrixMatrixMatrixMatrixmatrixmatrix must contain the relevant information of the matrix. The strictly upper triangular part of the matrix is not referenced. For MatrixTypeMatrixTypeMatrixTypeMatrixTypematrixTypematrix_type = 'tridiagonal'"tridiagonal""tridiagonal""tridiagonal""tridiagonal""tridiagonal", only the main diagonal, the superdiagonal, and the subdiagonal of the input MatrixMatrixMatrixMatrixmatrixmatrix are used. The other parts of the matrix are not referenced. If the referenced part of the input MatrixMatrixMatrixMatrixmatrixmatrix is not of the specified type, an exception is raised.

invert_matrix_modinvert_matrix_modInvertMatrixModInvertMatrixModInvertMatrixModinvert_matrix_mod modifies the content of an already existing matrix.

Execution Information

• Multithreading type: reentrant (runs in parallel with non-exclusive operators).
• Multithreading scope: global (may be called from any thread).
• Processed without parallelization.

This operator modifies the state of the following input parameter:

• MatrixIDMatrixIDMatrixIDMatrixIDmatrixIDmatrix_id

During execution of this operator, access to the value of this parameter must be synchronized if it is used across multiple threads.

Parameters

Result

If the parameters are valid, the operator invert_matrix_modinvert_matrix_modInvertMatrixModInvertMatrixModInvertMatrixModinvert_matrix_mod returns the value TRUE. If necessary, an exception is raised.
