Revision history [back]

Hi!; i've just today used sage for the first time in my life in order to do this one thing described below. I failed, so if anyone would share some helpful thoughts, Id be very grateful.

I have: four real variables: a,b,c,d, each one satisfying: 0=< a,b,c,d,a+b,a+c,...,c+d=<1, (so that m, the 3x3 matrix, is doubly stochastic:) m=[(a,b,1-a-b), (c,d, 1-c-d), (1-a-c, 1-b-d, a+b+c+d-1)]. I do some simple algerba with m end its elements, ending up with a 4x4, (a,b,c,d)-dependent matrix, A. I want to have a look at a plot of an implicit function det(A)==0. I figured i could use implicit_plot3d e.g. in (a,b,c) space with fixed d.

Yet something went wrong; last line of the error message says:

ValueError: Variable 'd' not found

here's, what I've typed from the top:

e_1=matrix(SR,3,3, [1,0,-1, 0,0,0, -1,0,1])

e_2=matrix(SR,3,3, [0,1,-1, 0,0,0, 0,-1,1])

e_3=matrix(SR,3,3, [0,0,0, 1,0,-1, -1,0,1])

e_4=matrix(SR,3,3, [0,0,0, 0,1,-1, 0,-1,1]);

var('a,b,c,d')

m=matrix(SR,3,3, [a,b,1-a-b, c,d,1-c-b, 1-a-c, 1-b-d,a+b+c+d-1])
