Function of symbols that is drawn from a matrix of symbols - does not work!
Please look at the first cell in this worksheet.
The Problem
Wanted to simplify the following symbolic calculation: If S be a matrix, nXn, of symbols - the matrix Aab=∑c≠dSacSadSbdSbc.
Construction of the matrix of symbols
n = 3
R = PolynomialRing(RR,[['r','t'][cmp(int(i/n),i%n)]+'_'+str(1+int(i/n))+str(1+i%n) for i in range(n^2)])
S = matrix(R,3,R.gens())And this works, the matrix is constructed.
sanity Check
print [S[int(k/n)][k%n] for k in range(n^2)]works perfectly.
Roadblock
However this construct does not work: print [(S[i][int(k/n)]S[i][k%n]S[j][k%n]S[j][int(k/n)])(int(k/n)!=k%n)for k in range(n^2)]
and returns
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in <module>
File "/tmp/tmpQltfcX/___code___.py", line 10, in <module>
print [(S[i][int(k/n)]*S[i][k%n]*S[j][k%n]*S[j][int(k/n)])*(int(k/n)!=k%n)for k in range(n**_sage_const_2 )]
File "matrix0.pyx", line 924, in sage.matrix.matrix0.Matrix.__getitem__ (sage/matrix/matrix0.c:5540)
IndexError: matrix index out of rangeConsequently the constructor for the matrix Aab doesnt work as well!
Check Again
print flatten([[[(i,int(k/n),k%n,j,1*(int(k/n)!=k%n))for k in range(n^2)]for i in range(n)]for j in range(n)])returns a list containing 0, 1 and 2 s only. So the IndexError up there does not make sense either!
Edit: Addendum
n = 3
R = PolynomialRing(RR,[['r','t'][cmp(int(i/n),i%n)]+'_'+str(1+int(i/n))+str(1+i%n) for i in range(n^2)])
S = matrix(R,3,R.gens())
from operator import add
def Sh(i,j):
return reduce(add,[S[i][k//n]*S[i][k%n]*S[j][k%n]*S[j][k//n]*((k//n)!=k%n) for k in range(n^2)])
Shot = matrix(RR,n,n, Sh)
#print Shotsage then returns the following error: Traceback (most recent call last): #print flatten([[[(i,int(k/n),k%n,j,1*(int(k/n)!=k%n))for k in range(n^2)]for i in range(n)]for j in range(n)]) File "", line 1, in <module>
