multivariate_polynomial_abstract#

This module contains the abstract base classes for all polynomial base classes.

All concrete implementations of polynomial bases must inherit from the abstract base class. This ensures a consistent interface across all polynomials. As a result, additional features can be developed without needing to reference specific polynomial classes, while allowing each concrete class to manage its own implementation details.

See e.g. PEP 3119 for further explanations on the topic.

Parameters:
multi_index#

The multi-indices of the multivariate polynomial.

Notes

the grid with the corresponding indices defines the “basis” or polynomial space a polynomial is part of. e.g. also the constraints for a Lagrange polynomial, i.e. on which points they must vanish.

Create an instance of polynomial with a Grid instance.

Parameters:
  • grid (Grid) – The grid on which the polynomial is defined.

  • coeffs (numpy.ndarray, optional) – The coefficients of the polynomial(s); a one-dimensional array with the same length as the length of the multi-index set or a two-dimensional array with each column corresponds to the coefficients of a single polynomial on the same grid.

Notes

  • coeffs may be assigned with None to indicate an uninitialized

Returns:

New polynomial(s) instance with negated coefficients.

Return type:

MultivariatePolynomialSingleABC

Notes

  • The resulting polynomial is a deep copy of the original polynomial.

Returns:

The same polynomial

Return type:

  • +P is not the same as 1 * P, the latter of which is a scalar multiplication. In this case, the result actually differs because the scalar multiplication 1 * P returns a new instance of polynomial even though the coefficients are not altered.

This function is called when:

  • two polynomials are added: P1 + P2, where P1 (i.e., self) and P2 (other) are both instances of a concrete polynomial class.

  • a polynomial is added with a real scalar number: P1 + a, where a (other) is a real scalar number.

Polynomials are closed under scalar addition, meaning that the result of the addition is also a polynomial with the same underlying multi-index set; only the coefficients are altered.

Parameters:

other (Union[MultivariatePolynomialSingleABC, SCALAR]) – The right operand, either an instance of polynomial (of the same concrete class as the right operand) or a real scalar number.

Returns:

The result of the addition, an instance of summed polynomial.

  • a polynomial is added with a real scalar number: P1 - a, where a is a real scalar number.

Polynomials are closed under scalar subtraction, meaning that the result of the subtraction is also a polynomial with the same underlying multi-index set; only the coefficients are altered.

Parameters:

other (Union[MultivariatePolynomialSingleABC, SCALAR]) – The right operand, either an instance of polynomial (of the same concrete class as the right operand) or a real scalar number.

Returns:

The result of the subtraction, an instance of subtracted polynomial.

Return type:

MultivariatePolynomialSingleABC

Notes

  • Under the hood subtraction is an addition operation with a negated operand on the right; no separate concrete implementation is used.

Returns:

The result of exponentiation, an instance of a concrete polynomial class.

Return type:

MultivariatePolynomialSingleABC

Notes

  • Exponentiation by zero returns a constant polynomial whose coefficients are zero except for the constant term with respect to the multi-index set which is given a value of \(1.0\). In the case of polynomials in the Lagrange basis whose no constant term with respect to the multi-index set, all coefficients are set to \(1.0\).

  • xx (numpy.ndarray) – The set of query points to evaluate as a two-dimensional array of shape (k, m) where k is the number of query points and m is the spatial dimension of the polynomial.

  • **kwargs – Additional keyword-only arguments that change the behavior of the underlying evaluation (see the concrete implementation).

Returns:

The values of the polynomial evaluated at query points.

  • If there is only a single polynomial (i.e., a single set of coefficients), then a one-dimensional array of length k is returned.

  • If there are multiple polynomials (i.e., multiple sets of coefficients), then a two-dimensional array of shape (k, np) is returned where np is the number of coefficient sets.

Return type:

numpy.ndarray

Notes

  • This is a placeholder of the ABC, which is overwritten by the concrete implementation.
