Detailed Description

template<class T, bool ring = ((std::is_integral<T>::value && ! std::is_same<T, bool>::value) || IsReginaInteger<T>::value || std::is_same<T, Rational>::value)>
class regina::Matrix< T, ring >

Represents a matrix of elements of the given type T.

As of Regina 5.96, the old subclasses of Matrix have now been merged into a single Matrix class. The additional member functions that the old subclasses MatrixRing and MatrixIntDomain used to provide are now part of Matrix, and are enabled or disabled according to the Matrix template parameters.

It is generally safe to just use the type Matrix<T>, since the ring argument has a sensible default. At present, ring defaults to true (thereby enabling member functions designed for matrices over rings) when T is one of the following types:

Other types may be added to this list in future versions of Regina.

There are several requirements for the underlying type T. For all matrix types:

If ring is true, then in addition to this:

In particular, all of Regina's integer and rational types (Integer, LargeInteger, NativeInteger<...> and Rational) satisfy all of these requirements, and will set ring to true by default.

The header maths/matrixops.h contains several other algorithms that work with the specific class Matrix<Integer>.

This class implements C++ move semantics and adheres to the C++ Swappable requirement. It is designed to avoid deep copies wherever possible, even when passing or returning objects by value.

Python
Not present in general, although the specific types Matrix<Integer> and Matrix<bool> are available under the names MatrixInt and MatrixBool respectively.
Template Parameters
Tthe type of each individual matrix element.
ringtrue if we should enable member functions that only work when T represents an element of a ring. This has a sensible default; see above in the class documentation for details.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Matrix() [1/6]

template<class T , bool ring = ((std::is_integral<T>::value && ! std::is_same<T, bool>::value) || IsReginaInteger<T>::value || std::is_same<T, Rational>::value)>
regina::Matrix< T, ring >::Matrix ( )
inline

Creates a new uninitialised matrix.

You must initialise this matrix using the assignment operator before you can use it for any purpose. The only exceptions are:

  • you can safely destroy an uninitialised matrix;
  • you can safely assign an uninitialised matrix to another matrix (either via an assignment operator or copy constructor), in which case the other matrix will become uninitialised also and subject to similar constraints.
Python
Not present, since the C++ assignment operators are not accessible to Python.

◆ Matrix() [2/6]

template<class T , bool ring = ((std::is_integral<T>::value && ! std::is_same<T, bool>::value) || IsReginaInteger<T>::value || std::is_same<T, Rational>::value)>
regina::Matrix< T, ring >::Matrix ( unsigned long  size)
inline

Creates a new square matrix of the given size.

Both the number of rows and the number of columns will be set to size.

All entries will be initialised using their default constructors. In particular, this means that for Regina's own integer classes (Integer, LargeInteger and NativeInteger), all entries will be initialised to zero.

Warning
If T is a native C++ integer type (such as int or long), then the matrix elements will not be initialised to any particular value.
Precondition
The given size is strictly positive.
Parameters
sizethe number of rows and columns in the new matrix.

◆ Matrix() [3/6]

template<class T , bool ring = ((std::is_integral<T>::value && ! std::is_same<T, bool>::value) || IsReginaInteger<T>::value || std::is_same<T, Rational>::value)>
regina::Matrix< T, ring >::Matrix ( unsigned long  rows,
unsigned long  cols 
)
inline

Creates a new matrix of the given size.

All entries will be initialised using their default constructors. In particular, this means that for Regina's own integer classes (Integer, LargeInteger and NativeInteger), all entries will be initialised to zero.

Warning
If T is a native C++ integer type (such as int or long), then the matrix elements will not be initialised to any particular value.
Precondition
The given number of rows and columns are both strictly positive.
Parameters
rowsthe number of rows in the new matrix.
colsthe number of columns in the new matrix.

◆ Matrix() [4/6]

template<class T , bool ring = ((std::is_integral<T>::value && ! std::is_same<T, bool>::value) || IsReginaInteger<T>::value || std::is_same<T, Rational>::value)>
regina::Matrix< T, ring >::Matrix ( std::initializer_list< std::initializer_list< T > >  data)
inline

Creates a new matrix containing the given hard-coded entries.

This constructor can be used (for example) to create hard-coded examples directly in C++ code.

Each element of the initialiser list data describes a single row of the matrix.

Precondition
The list data is non-empty (i.e., the number of rows is positive), and each of its elements is non-empty (i.e., the number of columns is positive).
All elements of data (representing the rows of the matrix) are lists of the same size.
Python
The argument data should be a Python list of Python lists.
Parameters
datathe rows of the matrix, each given as a list of elements.

◆ Matrix() [5/6]

template<class T , bool ring = ((std::is_integral<T>::value && ! std::is_same<T, bool>::value) || IsReginaInteger<T>::value || std::is_same<T, Rational>::value)>
regina::Matrix< T, ring >::Matrix ( const Matrix< T, ring > &  src)
inline

Creates a new matrix that is a clone of the given matrix.

This constructor induces a deep copy of src.

This routine is safe to call even if src is uninitialised (in which case this matrix will become uninitialised also).

Parameters
srcthe matrix to clone.

◆ Matrix() [6/6]

template<class T , bool ring = ((std::is_integral<T>::value && ! std::is_same<T, bool>::value) || IsReginaInteger<T>::value || std::is_same<T, Rational>::value)>
regina::Matrix< T, ring >::Matrix ( Matrix< T, ring > &&  src)
inlinenoexcept

Moves the given matrix into this new matrix.

This is a fast (constant time) operation.

The matrix that is passed (src) will no longer be usable.

This routine is safe to call even if src is uninitialised (in which case this matrix will become uninitialised also).

Parameters
srcthe matrix to move.

◆ ~Matrix()

template<class T , bool ring = ((std::is_integral<T>::value && ! std::is_same<T, bool>::value) || IsReginaInteger<T>::value || std::is_same<T, Rational>::value)>
regina::Matrix< T, ring >::~Matrix ( )

unsigned long  dest 
)
inline

Adds the given source column to the given destination column.

This routine is only available when the template argument ring is true.

Warning
If you only wish to add a portion of a column, be careful: you cannot just pass the usual fromRow argument, since this will be interpreted as a coefficient to be used with the other version of addCol() that adds several copies of the source column. Instead you will need to call addColFrom().

Parameters
sourcethe columns to add.
destthe column that will be added to.

◆ addCol() [2/2]

unsigned long  fromRow = 0 
)
inline

void regina::Matrix< T, ring >::addRow ( unsigned long  source,
unsigned long  dest 
)
inline

This routine is only available when the template argument ring is true.

Precondition
The two given rows are distinct and between 0 and rows()-1 inclusive.
Warning
If you only wish to add a portion of a row, be careful: you cannot just pass the usual fromCol argument, since this will be interpreted as a coefficient to be used with the other version of addRow() that adds several copies of the source row. Instead you will need to call addRowFrom().
Parameters
sourcethe row to add.
destthe row that will be added to.

◆ addRow() [2/2]

template<class T , bool ring = ((std::is_integral<T>::value && ! std::is_same<T, bool>::value) || IsReginaInteger<T>::value || std::is_same<T, Rational>::value)>
void regina::Matrix< T, ring >::addRow ( unsigned long  source,
unsigned long  dest,
copies,
unsigned long  fromCol = 0 
)
inline

void regina::Matrix< T, ring >::addRowFrom ( unsigned long  source,
unsigned long  dest,
unsigned long  fromCol 
)
inline

Adds a portion of the given source row to the given destination row.

This is similar to addRow(), except that the operation will only be performed for the elements from the column fromCol to the rightmost end of the row (inclusive).

This routine is only available when the template argument ring is true.

Precondition
The two given rows are distinct and between 0 and rows()-1 inclusive.
If passed, fromCol is between 0 and columns() -1 inclusive.

◆ columnEchelonForm()

template<class T , bool ring = ((std::is_integral<T>::value && ! std::is_same<T, bool>::value) || IsReginaInteger<T>::value || std::is_same<T, Rational>::value)>
unsigned long regina::Matrix< T, ring >::columnEchelonForm ( )
inline

Transforms this matrix into column echelon form.

The transformation will perform only column operations.

This is simpler than the global routine regina::columnEchelonForm(): it does not return the change of basis matrices, and it processes all rows in order from left to right (instead of passing a custom row list).

Our convention is that a matrix is in column echelon form if:

  1. each column is either zero or there is a first non-zero entry which is positive;
  2. moving from the left column to the right, these first non-zero entries have strictly increasing row indices;
  3. for each first non-zero column entry, in that row all the elements to the left are smaller and non-negative (and all elements to the right are already zero by the previous condition);
  4. all the zero columns are at the right hand end of the matrix.

This routine is only available when T is one of Regina's own integer classes (Integer, LargeInteger, or NativeIntgeger).

Returns
the rank of this matrix, i.e., the number of non-zero columns remaining.

◆ columns()

template<class T , bool ring = ((std::is_integral<T>::value && ! std::is_same<T, bool>::value) || IsReginaInteger<T>::value || std::is_same<T, Rational>::value)>

inline

Returns the number of columns in this matrix.

Returns
the number of columns.

unsigned long  col2,
coeff11,
coeff12,
coeff21,
coeff22,
unsigned long  fromRow = 0 
)
inline

Rewrites two columns as linear combinations of those two columns.

Specifically, if C1 and C2 are the original values of columns col1 and col2 respectively, then:

  • Column col1 will become coeff11 * C1 + coeff12 * C2;
  • Column col2 will become coeff21 * C1 + coeff22 * C2.

The four coefficients are passed by value, in case they are elements of the columns to be changed.

If the optional argument fromRow is passed, then the operation will only be performed for the elements from that column down to the bottom of each column (inclusive).

This routine is only available when the template argument ring is true.

unsigned long  row2,
coeff11,
coeff12,
coeff21,
coeff22,
unsigned long  fromCol = 0 
)
inline

Rewrites two rows as linear combinations of those two rows.

Specifically, if R1 and R2 are the original values of rows row1 and row2 respectively, then:

  • Row row1 will become coeff11 * R1 + coeff12 * R2;
  • Row row2 will become coeff21 * R1 + coeff22 * R2.

The four coefficients are passed by value, in case they are elements of the rows to be changed.

If the optional argument fromCol is passed, then the operation will only be performed for the elements from that column to the rightmost end of each row (inclusive).

T regina::Matrix< T, ring >::det ( ) const
inline

Evaluates the determinant of the matrix.

This algorithm has quartic complexity, and uses the dynamic programming approach of Mahajan and Vinay. For further details, see Meena Mahajan and V. Vinay, "Determinant: Combinatorics, algorithms, and complexity", Chicago J. Theor. Comput. Sci., Vol. 1997, Article 5.

This routine is only available when the template argument ring is true.

Returns
the determinant of this matrix.

◆ detail()

std::string regina::Output< Matrix< T > , false >::detail ( ) const
inherited

Returns a detailed text representation of this object.

This text may span many lines, and should provide the user with all the information they could want. It should be human-readable, should not contain extremely long lines (which cause problems for users reading the output in a terminal), and should end with a final newline. There are no restrictions on the underlying character set.

Returns
a detailed text representation of this object.

◆ divColExact()

template<class T , bool ring = ((std::is_integral<T>::value && ! std::is_same<T, bool>::value) || IsReginaInteger<T>::value || std::is_same<T, Rational>::value)>
void regina::Matrix< T, ring >::divColExact ( unsigned long  col,
const T &  divBy 
)
inline

Divides all elements of the given column by the given integer.

This can only be used when the given integer divides into all column elements exactly (with no remainder). For the Integer class, this may be much faster than ordinary division.

This routine is only available when T is one of Regina's own integer classes (Integer, LargeInteger, or NativeIntgeger).

Precondition
The argument divBy is neither zero nor infinity, and none of the elements of the given column are infinity.
The argument divBy divides exactly into every element of the given column (i.e., it leaves no remainder).
The given column number is between 0 and columns()-1 inclusive.
Parameters
colthe index of the column whose elements should be divided by divBy.
divBythe integer to divide each column element by.

◆ divRowExact()

template<class T , bool ring = ((std::is_integral<T>::value && ! std::is_same<T, bool>::value) || IsReginaInteger<T>::value || std::is_same<T, Rational>::value)>
void regina::Matrix< T, ring >::divRowExact ( unsigned long  row,
const T &  divBy 
)
inline

Divides all elements of the given row by the given integer.

This can only be used when the given integer divides into all row elements exactly (with no remainder). For the Integer class, this may be much faster than ordinary division.

This routine is only available when T is one of Regina's own integer classes (Integer, LargeInteger, or NativeIntgeger).

Precondition
The argument divBy is neither zero nor infinity, and none of the elements of the given row are infinity.
The argument divBy divides exactly into every element of the given row (i.e., it leaves no remainder).
The given row number is between 0 and rows()-1 inclusive.
Parameters
rowthe index of the row whose elements should be divided by divBy.
divBythe integer to divide each row element by.

◆ entry() [1/2]

template<class T , bool ring = ((std::is_integral<T>::value && ! std::is_same<T, bool>::value) || IsReginaInteger<T>::value || std::is_same<T, Rational>::value)>
T & regina::Matrix< T, ring >::entry ( unsigned long  row,
unsigned long  column 
)
inline

Returns the entry at the given row and column.

Rows and columns are numbered beginning at zero.

Precondition
row is between 0 and rows()-1 inclusive.
column is between 0 and columns()-1 inclusive.
Python
The entry() routine gives direct read-write access to matrix elements, but does not allow them to be set using the assignment operator. In other words, code such as matrix.entry(r, c).negate() will work, but matrix.entry(r, c) = value will not. To assign values to matrix elements, you should instead use the syntax matrix.set(row, column, value). This set() routine returns nothing, and is provided for python only (i.e., it is not part of the C++ calculation engine).
Parameters
rowthe row of the desired entry.
columnthe column of the desired entry.
Returns
a reference to the entry in the given row and column.

template<class T , bool ring = ((std::is_integral<T>::value && ! std::is_same<T, bool>::value) || IsReginaInteger<T>::value || std::is_same<T, Rational>::value)>
const T & regina::Matrix< T, ring >::entry ( unsigned long  row,
unsigned long  column 
) const
inline

Returns the entry at the given row and column.

Rows and columns are numbered beginning at zero.

Precondition
row is between 0 and rows()-1 inclusive.
column is between 0 and columns()-1 inclusive.

template<class T , bool ring = ((std::is_integral<T>::value && ! std::is_same<T, bool>::value) || IsReginaInteger<T>::value || std::is_same<T, Rational>::value)>
unsigned long regina::Matrix< T, ring >::rowEchelonForm ( )
inline

Transforms this matrix into row echelon form.

The transformation will perform only row operations.

This is simpler than the global routine regina::columnEchelonForm(): it does not return the change of basis matrices, and it processes all columns in order from left to right (instead of passing a custom column list).

Our convention is that a matrix is in row echelon form if:

  1. each row is either zero or there is a first non-zero entry which is positive;
  2. moving from the top row to the bottom, these first non-zero entries have strictly increasing column indices;
  3. for each first non-zero row entry, in that column all the elements above are smaller and non-negative (and all elements below are already zero by the previous condition);
  4. all the zero rows are at the bottom of the matrix.

This routine is only available when T is one of Regina's own integer classes (Integer, LargeInteger, or NativeIntgeger).

Returns
the rank of this matrix, i.e., the number of non-zero rows remaining.

Returns
the number of rows.

◆ str()

std::string regina::Output< Matrix< T > , false >::str ( ) const
inherited

Returns a short text representation of this object.

This text should be human-readable, should use plain ASCII characters where possible, and should not contain any newlines.

Within these limits, this short text ouptut should be as information-rich as possible, since in most cases this forms the basis for the Python str() and repr() functions.

Python
The Python "stringification" function str() will use precisely this function, and for most classes the Python repr() function will incorporate this into its output.
Returns
a short text representation of this object.

◆ swap()

void regina::Matrix< T, ring >::swapCols ( unsigned long  first,
unsigned long  second,
unsigned long  fromRow = 0 
)
inline

Swaps the elements of the two given columns in the matrix.

This operation is linear time (unlike swapping rows, which is constant time).

If the optional argument fromRow is passed, then the operation will only be performed for the elements from that row down to the bottom of each column (inclusive).

Precondition
The two given columns are between 0 and columns()-1 inclusive.
If passed, fromRow is between 0 and rows() -1 inclusive.
Parameters
firstthe first column to swap.
secondthe second column to swap.
fromRowthe starting point in each column from which the operation will be performed.

void regina::Matrix< T, ring >::swapColumns ( unsigned long  first,
unsigned long  second 
)
inline

Deprecated routine that swaps the elements of the two given columns in the matrix.

Deprecated:
This routine has been renamed to swapCols().
Precondition
The two given columns are between 0 and columns()-1 inclusive.
Parameters
firstthe first column to swap.
secondthe second column to swap.

◆ swapRows()

template<class T , bool ring = ((std::is_integral<T>::value && ! std::is_same<T, bool>::value) || IsReginaInteger<T>::value || std::is_same<T, Rational>::value)>
void regina::Matrix< T, ring >::swapRows ( unsigned long  first,
unsigned long  second 
)
inline

Swaps the elements of the two given rows in the matrix.

This operation is constant time (unlike swapping columns, which is linear time).

Unlike swapCols(), this operation does not take a fromCol argument. This is because swapping rows is already as fast possible (internally, just a single pointer swap), and so iterating along only part of the row would slow the routine down considerably.

Precondition
The two given rows are between 0 and rows()-1 inclusive.
Parameters
firstthe first row to swap.
secondthe second row to swap.

◆ transpose()

template<class T , bool ring = ((std::is_integral<T>::value && ! std::is_same<T, bool>::value) || IsReginaInteger<T>::value || std::is_same<T, Rational>::value)>

This matrix is not changed.

Returns
the transpose.

◆ utf8()

std::string regina::Output< Matrix< T > , false >::utf8 ( ) const
inherited

Returns a short text representation of this object using unicode characters.

Like str(), this text should be human-readable, should not contain any newlines, and (within these constraints) should be as information-rich as is reasonable.

Unlike str(), this function may use unicode characters to make the output more pleasant to read. The string that is returned will be encoded in UTF-8.

Returns
a short text representation of this object.
