Comment #3 on issue 2247 by yuri.kar...@gmail.com: Problem with coth http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=2247 There's no foliation in these cases so there's no need in cuts of Rieman surface: tanh(acoth(x))=1/x coth(atanh(x))=1/x coth(acoth(x))=x The others is agreed with sqrt foliation, because sqrt(4) 2 Let's proove this formula coth(asinh(x))=sqrt(x**2+1)/x asinh(x)=t so by definition sinh(t)=x coth(t)**2=cosh(t)**2/sinh(t)**2=(1+sinh(t)**2)/sinh(t)**2=(1+x**2)/x**2 as positive branch of sqrt are chosen than coth(t)=sqrt(1+x**2)/x So it seems we should not think about issue's 564 agreement.

Comment #4 on issue 2246 by yuri.kar...@gmail.com: Global directive to switch strict transformations http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=2246 Sure they could. But still it will be better to divide this problem into two subproblems (it could be one issue): 1st - change standard and special functions to be able to call inverse (using some cut agreements) if the keyword nonstrict or may be foliation or whatever are set to true. 2nd - do what you say in previous comment. The profit of such differentiation is that the other functions like evalf will be able to use nonstrict computation, so the functionality won't be doubled for any function that need it (and this will be so if we implement it all inside solve function).

Updates: Labels: -NeedsBetterPatch NeedsReview Comment #24 on issue 821 by pr...@goodok.ru: multiple arguments for max and other improvements http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=821 Thanks a lot for detailed and useful remarks here and there! I have updated the pull now. Regarding the comparison of incomparable arguments. I consider them as unjoined vertexes, for generalization in common case: whether they have boolean relation or not (`is_connected` method). Besides, by that I move the problem and tuning of Max behaviour to ``, `==`, `` operators in SymPy core. What to do with concrete comparison of complex number I don't know. I think that complex numbers comparable only by norm, but user can tune it manually, supplying appropriate arguments. At the same Max can consider as ordinary unevaluated expression, e.g. Max(cos(x), sin(x)) Max(cos(x), sin(x)) with the aim to further Max(cos(x), sin(x)).subs(x, 0) 1 For this aim I should not like the checking of inputs for real. And also, I've forgotten to notice it in previous message, in one place (`def remove_duplicates`) I used python 2.5 technique, guided by [1]. Is it acceptably for next milestone?

Comment #5 on issue 2246 by ronan.l...@gmail.com: Global directive to switch strict transformations http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=2246 Having a global switch is always a bad idea, I think. Such things tend to cause a lot of trouble. Even as an option, turning it on would cause a lot of wrong results to be returned. But actually, nonstrict computation is already the default and wrong results are returned at present, for example solve(sin(x), x) - [0]. Anyway, concerning the examples above, strict vs nonstrict isn't the issue. tan(atan(x)) is always equal to x, so atan(x) = y always implies x = tan(y). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups sympy-issues group.

Re: Issue 564 in sympy: series expansion of acosh and acoth
Comment #14 on issue 564 by pr...@goodok.ru: series expansion of acosh and acoth http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=564 Regarding the wolframalpha. I observed that it have many questions too, therefore can be considered as etalon with accuracy. Mathematically, `coth(0) == zoo` is true only in the case of when user asks CAS about the extension of reals to complex numbers. But I, e.g. can ask CAS to do not extend reals (then oo must the right answer), or even can ask to extent reals to the similar so called `semi-complex` numbers. Second, coth(0) have singularity at this point: And I supposed that walframalpha try to show this for us by returning `zoo`. Or simply return `zoo` like S(1)/S.Zero oo But I think that right way is return more general singularity description (formally, coth(o) has no value, only infinite limit at this point) So, the question, what coth(0) must result, I think is related with issue 2242 (A general way to describe and test for singularities) and so on. Returning to the title of issue. Both answers of sympy and maxima are correct. Except the remarks about branches, but branches (multi-valued function) are not used now for definitions of functions in sympy and it is a separated question. There is only definition what branches for multi-valued function are chosen as main. since the range of sinh(x) in the reals is (-1,1).

Those are half superficial anyway since they just get postponed if no one has time to work on the issue :) As to complex numbers, there are multiple ways to compare them, none of which are actual comparison in the sense of what Max is doing, so I think we should just not allow them. On the other hand, pragmatically, it can be a pain to assure that everything is explicitly assumed to be real, so maybe it should just assume it is real unless it is explicitly otherwise (e.g., a symbol is complex by default, but Max(x, 1) will assume it is real; on the other hand Max(1, I) will not work because I cannot be real). I think this is already in some ways the standard for the inequalities, and probably should become that way (unless others have other thoughts). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups sympy-issues group.

Comment #15 on issue 564 by asmeurer: series expansion of acosh and acoth http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=564 Well, since symbols are complex by default in SymPy, I think it only makes sense for functions to be complex by default as well. Someday, the new assumptions will make it easy to work only with the reals if you want. But until then, making things complex by default is the most general way to do it (e.g., if you only care about reals, you at least know that zoo means +/- oo). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups sympy-issues group.

Comment #16 on issue 564 by pr...@goodok.ru: series expansion of acosh and acoth http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=564 A agree that default plane for function's result can be considered as complex plane, but I am not sure that it is the straight consequence from the knowledge of that that symbols are complex by default.

Re: Issue 821 in sympy: multiple arguments for max and other improvements
Updates: Labels: -NeedsBetterPatch NeedsReview Comment #24 on issue 821 by pr...@goodok.ru: multiple arguments for max and other improvements http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=821 Thanks a lot for detailed and useful remarks here and there! I have updated the pull now. Regarding the comparison of incomparable arguments. I consider them as unjoined vertexes, for generalization in common case: whether they have boolean relation or not (`is_connected` method). Besides, by that I move the problem and tuning of Max behaviour to ``, `==`, `` operators in SymPy core. What to do with concrete comparison of complex number I don't know. I think that complex numbers comparable only by norm, but user can tune it manually, supplying appropriate arguments. At the same Max can consider as ordinary unevaluated expression, e.g. Max(cos(x), sin(x)) Max(cos(x), sin(x)) with the aim to further Max(cos(x), sin(x)).subs(x, 0) 1 For this aim I should not like the checking of inputs for real. And also, I've forgotten to notice it in previous message, in one place (`def remove_duplicates`) I used python 2.5 technique, guided by [1]. Is it acceptably for next milestone?

Re: Issue 821 in sympy: multiple arguments for max and other improvements
Updates: Labels: Milestone-Release0.7.1 Comment #25 on issue 821 by asmeurer: multiple arguments for max and other improvements http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=821 Sure, feel free to set the milestone. Those are half superficial anyway since they just get postponed if no one has time to work on the issue :) As to complex numbers, there are multiple ways to compare them, none of which are actual comparison in the sense of what Max is doing, so I think we should just not allow them. On the other hand, pragmatically, it can be a pain to assure that everything is explicitly assumed to be real, so maybe it should just assume it is real unless it is explicitly otherwise (e.g., a symbol is complex by default, but Max(x, 1) will assume it is real; on the other hand Max(1, I) will not work because I cannot be real). I think this is already in some ways the standard for the inequalities, and probably should become that way (unless others have other thoughts). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups sympy-patches group.

Hi Riccardo! On Mon, Mar 28, 2011 at 4:51 PM, norok2 riccardo.met...@gmail.com wrote: Hello everybody! I'm an Italian Physics Master student at University of Trento and I have a bachelor degree from University of Pisa. I would like to partecipate to contribute to sympy development through Google Summer of Code 2011 program. Welcome! I have very recently discovered sympy as my Python experience is quite at the beginning. I am a frequent user of maxima (usually through wxMaxima) where apparently there is no clean way to deal with QM formalism. I therefore find quite interesting to have the opportunity to develop - and, later on, use :-) - a symbolic tool to deal with QM problems. I find particularly interesting all Fourier transform related formalism because this is very basic to any linear system (not just QM). I also find of interest QM analythic solutions as they are very helpful both to serve as a basis for many advanced methods in QM Try to play with the QM stuff and browse and play with sympy more to get an idea what it can or cannot do. And ask questions. Indeed, we would be very interested in having several good QM applications. Feel free to also discuss with the other GSoC applicants. QM is very nice, because it requires quite a bit of CAS, and so it tests sympy quite a lot, and then it is a real application, that people need. And there are not many QM symbolic packages out there, so QM will be one of the selling points of sympy. I'd like to encourage other people, with other interests, for example mechanics, or other fields, to also contribute and create physics/engineering modules for their fields. This adds tremendous value to sympy, and at the end, everybody benefits. and to test out numerical approaches. Moreover, in my quick survey to this CAS I have not found (and I believe it could be useful) a LaTeX converter. We have the latex() function, try it in isympy like this: $ bin/isympy IPython console for SymPy 0.6.7-git (Python 2.6.5) These commands were executed: from __future__ import division from sympy import * x, y, z, t = symbols('x y z t') k, m, n = symbols('k m n', integer=True) f, g, h = map(Function, 'fgh') Documentation can be found at http://sympy.org/ In [1]: latex? [...] it will print help. As far as my programming skills are concerned, I can say that I believe to know quite well C and C++, while I have a limited experience in other programming / scripting / markup languages, including Python, Bash, PHP, Javascript, HTML, LaTeX, Lisp (listed with no specific order). I understand this project is essentially Python but I believe with some further study I can get acquainted with it quite well. Python is not hard to learn. As long as you work hard, you'll pick it up. That's what we (mentors) are here for. I hope I'm writing into the right place and I will be getting attention from people interested in discussing this topics. Definitely.

[sympy] Re: On a general representation for singularities and infinities
My primary use case is for code in sympy to be able to understand the result of a limiting operation. In particular there is currently no (good) way to interpret the result of e.g. limit(Wild('a')*x, x, oo) as being infinity (to the end user a*oo is visibly infinity, but (a*oo).is_unbounded is None) Why do you use Wild('a')? Hm. I think somewhere I found something like acos(1+a*x**2).series(x). Perhaps just using y instead of a would be more sensible. In any case this code should return an error. It has to evaluate the limit(acos(1+a*x**2).diff(x),x,0) which currently returns I*a*oo. A simpler example would be limit(y*x, x, oo). What should this return? It currently returns y*oo which is perhaps helpful for the user, but not for code. How is code supposed to interpret this - in fact how even recognise it? Strictly speaking of course, the limit should either be left unevaluated, or returned as a case expression {oo: y0, -oo: y0, 0: y==0}. Anyway there should be a way for the above code to figure out that in some cases this is unbounded, and hence should return an error. I initially suggested simply to add a .is_potentially_unbounded flag, but goodok objected that this was not the mathematically right way (and I agree, hence my longer proposal). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups sympy group.

I'd appreciate to have any suggestions and criticism from you. This look mostly like things we have implemented already. Also, in terms of the Hilbert Space stuff. More or less. QM formalism was already implemented 100 years ago and it seems nothing left to work on there from mathematical point of view. The main challange is to port it to computer systems where design skills are mainly required in tandem with a solid QM background. We found that for discrete quantum systems, the notion of hilbert space was pretty clear. You do run into some issues for spaces with symbolic/infinite dimension. Technically, matrix*vector is substituted by operator*function when N- oo limit is considered. I hope that SymPy deals equally well with both operations (at least it is supposed to). Thus again the issue is to design a whole interface in a clean and simple way with lots of examples and docs. But for continuous systems (x, p) Hilbert Space is quite complicated and to do it right you have to introduce a huge amount of complexity with little benefit. Instead of going that route, we have kept it simple. What this means is that (just like in real life) the HilbertSpaces attached to states and operators are sort of in the background. You can ask a state or operator what HilbertSpace it belongs to using the .hilbert_space attribute, but the whole approach is not very formal (which is on purpose). It looks that currently a Hilbert space is attached somehow automatically when a state is created, that I think should work an opposite way round since it has no sense to have a state in some abstract space with no dimensions. Just try to run: k1 = Ket('psi') k1.hilbert_space H How many dimensions does H have? That's simple, right: k1.hilbert_space.dimension NotImplementedError: This Hilbert space has no dimensions. Quite unexpected :( k2 = Ket('phi') k2.hilbert_space H Does k1.hilbert_space == k2.hilbert_space? k1.hilbert_space == k2.hilbert_space True Why is that so, how to make them to be different? And finally: k = 3*k1 + 4*k2 type(k) class 'sympy.core.add.Add Wow, it is supposed to be class 'sympy.physics.quantum.state.Ket', right? All those are very simple questions but still very important since without correctly answering them one will not be able to build more complicated things like perturbative methods, rotation group representations (spin and angular momentum). Summing up, as my GSoC 2011 proposition I'll probably go with an idea of implementing all those basic features for QM in tandem with building a solid set of documentation and examples for as many QM topics as possible (I'll put more details on my wiki

I'd appreciate to have any suggestions and criticism from you. This look mostly like things we have implemented already. Also, in terms of the Hilbert Space stuff. More or less. QM formalism was already implemented 100 years ago and it seems nothing left to work on there from mathematical point of view. The main challange is to port it to computer systems where design skills are mainly required in tandem with a solid QM background. We found that for discrete quantum systems, the notion of hilbert space was pretty clear. You do run into some issues for spaces with symbolic/infinite dimension. Technically, matrix*vector is substituted by operator*function when N- oo limit is considered. I hope that SymPy deals equally well with both operations (at least it is supposed to). Thus again the issue is to design a whole interface in a clean and simple way with lots of examples and docs. But for continuous systems (x, p) Hilbert Space is quite complicated and to do it right you have to introduce a huge amount of complexity with little benefit. Instead of going that route, we have kept it simple. What this means is that (just like in real life) the HilbertSpaces attached to states and operators are sort of in the background. You can ask a state or operator what HilbertSpace it belongs to using the .hilbert_space attribute, but the whole approach is not very formal (which is on purpose). It looks that currently a Hilbert space is attached somehow automatically when a state is created, that I think should work an opposite way round since it has no sense to have a state in some abstract space with no dimensions. Just try to run: k1 = Ket('psi') k1.hilbert_space H How many dimensions does H have? That's simple, right: k1.hilbert_space.dimension NotImplementedError: This Hilbert space has no dimensions. Quite unexpected :( k2 = Ket('phi') k2.hilbert_space H Does k1.hilbert_space == k2.hilbert_space? k1.hilbert_space == k2.hilbert_space True Why is that so, how to make them to be different? And finally: k = 3*k1 + 4*k2 type(k) class 'sympy.core.add.Add Wow, it is supposed to beclass 'sympy.physics.quantum.state.Ket', right? All those are very simple questions but still very important since without correctly answering them one will not be able to build more complicated things like perturbative methods, rotation group representations (spin and angular momentum). Summing up, as my GSoC 2011 proposition I'll probably go with an idea of implementing all those basic features for QM in tandem with building a solid set of documentation and examples for as many QM topics as possible (I'll put more
[sympy] GSoC
I am a sophomore undergraduate at IIT Bombay. I have a very strong mathematical background. I have spent the last one year exploring various areas of theoretical computer science - from graph theory to communication complexity to streaming algorithms through various RD Projects. In the meanwhile I have collaborated with a friend on a paper- http://arxiv.org/abs/1102.1636. Previous summer I spent Interning at Affordable Solution Labs, IIT Bombay in building various tools for a Govt of India Project to advertise e-learning. The summer of 2008, I attended a nurture camp where topics in Group, Ring and Field Theory, Linear Algebra were introduced. And previous to that my summers were spent in attending the International Mathematical Olympiad Training Camp. Up to date I have written around 5 lines of code mostly in C++. Are there any projects which I might be able to do (further considering my inclination for theoretical computer science and algorithms and also the fact that I am comfortable with C++ and to some extent JAVA and C), taking into account the constraint that I am a sophomore? Thanks Karthik PS: I have not written even a line of code in python, however I have great affection for mathematics, logic and natural sciences. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups sympy group.

[sympy] Re: Solving PDE's
Hi Everyone, Thanks for the reply. @ Vinzent: I am interested in developing the capability of SymPy further by enabling the solution of PDEs. For GSoC, I was thinking of writing FDM based solvers for simple PDEs like heat equation, hyperbolic PDE's, etc. The solvers can be implicit or explicit. If time permits we may add further functionality, but for this we may have to discuss possible options. Also working on ODE's is fine with me. Please tell me your views on this . @ Ondrej: I have uploaded a FDM solver for inviscid supersonic nozzle flow written by me at the following link. Its a stand alone solver and you may get an idea of my capability by looking at it. The solver is entirely coded by me. I have also coded numerous simple PDE's using many other FDM algorithms but I presume that this alone would suffice as all the 3 basic governing equations for fluid flow (Conitnuity, Momentum Energy) have been coded for this solver. This code is written in MATLAB but since Python is also shell based language like MATLAB and have some similarity in their syntactical rules, I believe that I won't have much problem with coding in Python. http://codeviewer.org/view/code:18dc In addition to this I have also coded a FVM solver for supersonic combustion in C++ and ported it OpenFOAM(just like the present case where we have to port our code to SymPy). Its location is below. Please have a look at these and tell me your views regarding my plans for GSoC mentioned above. http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/openfoam/82851-new-solver-supersonic-combustion.html Thanks Nakul -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups sympy group.

On modern hardware, computation is free memory is expensive. Yes, it is typical to use iterative algorithms with sparse matrices and factorizations with dense, but this is because sparse matrices are typically very large (1M -- 10^12 entries with 1000 -- 2B non-zeros). One will switch to things that don't fill in the matrix but SymPy will probably never be at this level. With symbolic matrices, the computation time for each calculation is much higher than with numerical matrices so the benefit of sparse matrix techniques occur at much smaller matrix sizes.

Another algorithm ILU versus LU is also silly (basically it throws away small fill in entries but we have no way of saying what is small in symbolics). For this reason I suggest just implementing standard factorizations and dealing with the fill in as it happens if we get to the point that we need to do UMFPACK style direct factorizations we can do that the next summer. We practitioners only use algorithms suited for sparse matrices because of the size of the matrices which will not be an issue in SymPy. I've already stated that storage isn't suitable for a GSoC project. I respectfully disagree. Furthermore I find it distasteful for one applicant to tell another that their idea is not suitable. Let's remain civil. I think it is important to decide what is needed and what is less needed, or what will be better than the current (dense) implementation and what will actually end up being worse. Perhaps the only way we will really know for sure what sparse methods will work best is to implement a bunch (in a modular way) and see what performs the best. By in a modular way, I mean they should be wrapped around classes in such a way that choosing a different sparse method should be trivial and the algorithms should be unaware to what is being used (except for the cases where it matters because one algorithm will be more efficient for one data type). It's very true that residual based methods will have problems, so will others. That's what I've been saying. The reasons the different methods will have problems will vary. How can you say that size won't be an issue? I've seen very large symbolic sparse matrices in CAS before. In fact, a friend of mine who was working on a project built on top of Maple wrote his own sparse matrix algorithms because Maple only handled dense matrices and bogged down at about 7x7 matrices, which isn't uncommon. I've personally wanted matrices with 10^4 -- 10^6 order entries with symbolic entries. Certainly not as large as a lot of some of the numerical sparse matrices, but still a reasonable size when each entry has several terms in it, rather than just a single number. I would have to see the problem to believe you. In a field where a single equation can bog down, I find it impossible to separate such concerns. You wishes are the future GSOC is about today, I'm more interested in projects that will be successful over the summer. Well, I admit that I am no expert in the area (I have only taken that standard theoretical undergraduate courses in linear algebra for a math major). However, I have personally see the current (dense) module be bogged down solving a sparse system. Take a look at http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=1441. When computing integrate((sin(1/x) - x*exp(x))/((-sin(1/x) + x*exp(x))*x + x*sin(1/x))), x), the heurisch algorithm sets up and tries to solve a very sparse system of about 600 equations in about 450 variables with rational coefficients (very sparse meaning quite a few of the equations are nothing more than something like 5*x23 = 0). (hopefully I remembered that all correctly) For this reason, the above integral will hang indefinitely and never return anything, even if you leave it running for a very long time. If you are interested, put a debug break point or a print statement at line 364 of risch.py (it will take 10-30 min. to reach that point because there is also another slow line in the file related to expansion). So while I don't know for sure, it really seems to me when I look at those equations that a good sparse solver should be able to return very fast with them (by the way, this particular system is

[sympy] GSoC 2011 - Luis Garcia
Hi everyone, My name is Luis F. Garcia, I'm a Physics junior undergrad in Tec de Monterrey, a university in México. I've been browsing the accepted mentor programs for this year's GSoC and SymPy really caught my attention. First a bit of my background. My completed coursework so far has included: Classical mechanics, Electromagnetic Theory, Calculus, Vector Calculus, Mathematical methods for Physics, ODE/PDE, Computational Physics (a numerical methods class applied to Physics, we coded almost entirely in Matlab), Linear Algebra, Data Structures. Some of my current classes are: Quantum Mechanics, Quantum Information Processing, Electrodynamics. I've grown quite fond of QM and quantum computing so far and I am excited to see that SymPy has projects for both areas. On the technical side I have mainly coded in Java, C#, C+ +, Matlab and I've played around for a bit with Python but nothing too complicated. The past two summers I've been an intern with Microsoft, first on the Servers and Tools division and then in a team within the Office org. While working in Microsoft was a great learning experience I want to get more experience with scientific computing since it's more related to my field of study. I saw the ideas page already and I'm interested in the Abstract Dirac Notation, the one of implementing known analytical solutions of q.systems, and the one of symbolic quantum computing. I'll be playing around with sympy.physics to see what's already implemented but could anyone give me some guidance as to what is implemented, known issues, or anything relevant about the module? I'll also get a look at the open issues to get a patch in to the system. Thanks and I'll try to get a draft application in the wiki and the system before the end of this week. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups sympy group.

Any suggestions, comments, criticism are always welcome. After briefly reading your proposal, I have a comment regarding the following statement: As I mentioned, currently only polynomials with complex variable are solvable in SymPy. I want to extend this to make sure that every function which is solvable by any other CAS system will be solvable by SymPy. This is a big statement that you would like to solve *every* function (it could be a GSoC proposal on its own). I would be more specific here and say what classes of functions you would like to support and in what terms solutions should be computed (e.g. do you plan to implement/extend symbolic representation of zeros of functions if there is no closed form, etc.). Looking forward for reply. -- -Regards Hector Whenever you think you can or you can't, in either way you are right. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups sympy group.

[sympy] Re: Update on integral equation solver
No no I meant the *other* graph :) Although I do get the point, I could use pyglet. Alternatively exporting Svgs seems like a good idea too.
