denseLU-class {Matrix}

Dense LU Factorizations

Description

denseLU is the class of dense, row-pivoted LU factorizations of m \times n real matrices A, having the general form

P_{1} A = L U

or (equivalently)

A = P_{1}' L U

where P_{1} is an m \times m permutation matrix, L is an m \times \min(m,n) unit lower trapezoidal matrix, and U is a \min(m,n) \times n upper trapezoidal matrix. If m = n, then the factors L and U are triangular.

Slots

Dim, Dimnames

inherited from virtual class MatrixFactorization.

x

a numeric vector of length prod(Dim) storing the triangular L and U factors together in a packed format. The details of the representation are specified by the manual for LAPACK routine dgetrf.

perm

an integer vector of length min(Dim) specifying the permutation P_{1} as a product of transpositions. The corresponding permutation vector can be obtained as asPerm(perm).

Extends

Class LU, directly. Class MatrixFactorization, by class LU, distance 2.

Instantiation

Objects can be generated directly by calls of the form new("denseLU", ...), but they are more typically obtained as the value of lu(x) for x inheriting from denseMatrix (often dgeMatrix).

Methods

coerce

signature(from = "denseLU", to = "dgeMatrix"): returns a dgeMatrix with the dimensions of the factorized matrix A, equal to L below the diagonal and equal to U on and above the diagonal.

determinant

signature(from = "denseLU", logarithm = "logical"): computes the determinant of the factorized matrix A or its logarithm.

expand

signature(x = "denseLU"): see expand-methods.

expand1

signature(x = "denseLU"): see expand1-methods.

expand2

signature(x = "denseLU"): see expand2-methods.

solve

signature(a = "denseLU", b = "missing"): see solve-methods.

Examples

showClass("denseLU")
set.seed(1)

n <- 3L
(A <- Matrix(round(rnorm(n * n), 2L), n, n))

## With dimnames, to see that they are propagated :
dimnames(A) <- dn <- list(paste0("r", seq_len(n)),
                          paste0("c", seq_len(n)))

(lu.A <- lu(A))
str(e.lu.A <- expand2(lu.A), max.level = 2L)

## Underlying LAPACK representation
(m.lu.A <- as(lu.A, "dgeMatrix")) # which is L and U interlaced
stopifnot(identical(as(m.lu.A, "matrix"), `dim<-`(lu.A@x, lu.A@Dim)))

ae1 <- function(a, b, ...) all.equal(as(a, "matrix"), as(b, "matrix"), ...)
ae2 <- function(a, b, ...) ae1(unname(a), unname(b), ...)

## A ~ P1' L U in floating point
stopifnot(exprs = {
    identical(names(e.lu.A), c("P1.", "L", "U"))
    identical(e.lu.A[["P1."]],
              new(  "pMatrix", Dim = c(n, n), Dimnames = c(dn[1L], list(NULL)),
                  margin = 1L, perm = invertPerm(asPerm(lu.A@perm))))
    identical(e.lu.A[["L"]],
              new("dtrMatrix", Dim = c(n, n), Dimnames = list(NULL, NULL),
                  uplo = "L", diag = "U", x = lu.A@x))
    identical(e.lu.A[["U"]],
              new("dtrMatrix", Dim = c(n, n), Dimnames = c(list(NULL), dn[2L]),
                  uplo = "U", diag = "N", x = lu.A@x))
    ae1(A, with(e.lu.A, P1. %*% L %*% U))
    ae2(A[asPerm(lu.A@perm), ], with(e.lu.A, L %*% U))
})

## Factorization handled as factorized matrix
b <- rnorm(n)
stopifnot(identical(det(A), det(lu.A)),
          identical(solve(A, b), solve(lu.A, b)))
