How do you calculate a matrix function in Sage? For example, exp is easily calculated as exp(A) or A.exp(). And how do you calculate sin(A), сos(A), ln(A)?

It turns out that Sage's various interpreters do have ways to get matrix trig functions :

giac has matrix trig functions :

sage: matrix(giac.sin(A)._sage_())
[              sin(2)     -sin(2) + sin(1) -3*sin(2) + 3*sin(1)]
[-3*sin(2) + 3*sin(1)  3*sin(2) - 2*sin(1)  9*sin(2) - 9*sin(1)]
[     sin(2) - sin(1)     -sin(2) + sin(1) -3*sin(2) + 4*sin(1)]

sympy has not matrix trig functions. But it has matrix exponential (and logarithm), which can be used to find matrix trigonoimetric functions, as noted by @Max Alekseyev :

sage: matrix([[u for u in v] for v in ((I*A)._sympy_().exp()-(-I*A)._sympy_().ex
....: p())._sage_()/2/I]).apply_map(lambda u:u.demoivre(force=True))
[              sin(2)     -sin(2) + sin(1) -3*sin(2) + 3*sin(1)]
[-3*sin(2) + 3*sin(1)  3*sin(2) - 2*sin(1)  9*sin(2) - 9*sin(1)]
[     sin(2) - sin(1)     -sin(2) + sin(1) -3*sin(2) + 4*sin(1)]

You can cheat and use Mathematica, or the (gratis but not free) Wolfram engine :

sage: matrix(sin._mathematica_().MatrixFunction(A).sage())
[              sin(2)     -sin(2) + sin(1) -3*sin(2) + 3*sin(1)]
[-3*sin(2) + 3*sin(1)  3*sin(2) - 2*sin(1)  9*sin(2) - 9*sin(1)]
[     sin(2) - sin(1)     -sin(2) + sin(1) -3*sin(2) + 4*sin(1)]

One notes that conversions of matrices to/from interpreters may be problematic which implies some workarounds in the previous examples...

HTH,

You can define trigonometric functions via exp() as:

matsin = lambda M: ((I*M).exp() - (-I*M).exp())/2/I
matcos = lambda M: ((I*M).exp() + (-I*M).exp())/2

For logarithm, please see this Q&A: https://math.stackexchange.com/q/3116315

Thanks, but it doesn't compute in all cases. For example, for the matrix A = matrix(QQ, 3, [2, -1, -3, -3, 4, 9, 1, -1, -2]) error: RuntimeError: ECL says: Unable to find the spectral representation

It's a known issue with Maxima - see https://ask.sagemath.org/question/23784/

A workaround is to define A over CDF, or change its ring on fly:

matcos(A.change_ring(CDF))

Thanks, that helps, although it gives an approximate result. Is there no way to get an exact solution in Sage? The matrix has integer eigenvalues and sin(A) = {{Sin[2], Sin[1] - Sin[2], 3 Sin[1] - 3 Sin[2]}, {3 Sin[1] - 3 Sin[2], -2 Sin[1] + 3 Sin[2], -9 Sin[1] + 9 Sin[2]}, {-Sin[1] + Sin[2], Sin[1] - Sin[2], 4 Sin[1] - 3 Sin[2]}} (computed in Wolfram).

FWIW, sympy has matrix exponential and logarithm (but no matrix trig...). These can be used by Sage :

sage: A = matrix(QQ, 3, [2, -1, -3, -3, 4, 9, 1, -1, -2]) ; A
[ 2 -1 -3]
[-3  4  9]
[ 1 -1 -2]
sage: (((I*A)._sympy_().exp()-(-I*A)._sympy_().exp())._sage_()/2/I).apply_map(lambda u:u.demoivre(force=True))
[              sin(2)     -sin(2) + sin(1) -3*sin(2) + 3*sin(1)]
[-3*sin(2) + 3*sin(1)  3*sin(2) - 2*sin(1)  9*sin(2) - 9*sin(1)]
[     sin(2) - sin(1)     -sin(2) + sin(1) -3*sin(2) + 4*sin(1)]

Mapping the function to the matrix can be useful:

A = matrix([[0.1,0.2],[0.3,0.4]])
matsin(x)=sin(x)
matlog(x)=log(x)
print(A.apply_map(matsin))
print(A.apply_map(matlog))

Thank you, but that's not it. This is simply calculating the function from each element of the matrix.

You can use Python modules in Sagemath. What about the following solution?

import numpy as np

A = matrix(QQ, 3, [2, -1, -3, -3, 4, 9, 1, -1, -2])
print(np.sin(A))
print(np.cos(A))
print(np.log(A))
