Accessing block-banded and banded-block-banded matrices

BlockBandedMatrices.isblockbanded — Function

isblockbanded(A)

returns true if a matrix implements the block banded interface.

source

BlockBandedMatrices.blockbandwidths — Function

blockbandwidths(A)

Returns a tuple containing the upper and lower blockbandwidth of A.

source

BlockBandedMatrices.blockbandwidth — Function

blockbandwidth(A,i)

Returns the lower blockbandwidth (i==1) or the upper blockbandwidth (i==2).

source

BlockBandedMatrices.blockbandrange — Function

blockbandrange(A)

Returns the range -blockbandwidth(A,1):blockbandwidth(A,2).

source

BlockBandedMatrices.subblockbandwidths — Function

subblockbandwidths(A)

returns the sub-block bandwidths of A, where A is a banded-block-banded matrix. In other words, A[Block(K,J)] will return a BandedMatrix with bandwidths given by subblockbandwidths(A).

source

BlockBandedMatrices.subblockbandwidth — Function

subblockbandwidth(A, i)

returns the sub-block lower (i == 1) or upper (i == 2) bandwidth of A, where A is a banded-block-banded matrix. In other words, A[Block(K,J)] will return a BandedMatrix with the returned lower/upper bandwidth.

source

Implementation

A BlockBandedMatrix stores the entries in a single vector, ordered by columns. For example, if A is a BlockBandedMatrix with block-bandwidths (A.l,A.u) == (1,0) and the block sizes fill(2, N) where N = 3 is the number of row and column blocks, then A has zero structure

[ a_11 a_12 │  ⋅    ⋅
  a_21 a_22 │  ⋅    ⋅
  ──────────┼──────────
  a_31 a_32 │ a_33 a_34
  a_41 a_42 │ a_43 a_44
  ──────────┼──────────
   ⋅    ⋅   │ a_53 a_54
   ⋅    ⋅   │ a_63 a_64 ]

and is stored in memory via A.data as a single vector by columns, containing:

[a_11,a_21,a_31,a_41,a_12,a_22,a_32,a_42,a_33,a_43,a_53,a_63,a_34,a_44,a_54,a_64]

The reasoning behind this storage scheme as that each block still satisfies the strided matrix interface, but we can also use BLAS and LAPACK to, for example, upper-triangularize a block column all at once.

A BandedBlockBandedMatrix stores the entries as a BlockedMatrix, with the number of row blocks equal to A.l + A.u + 1, and the row block sizes are all A.μ + A.λ + 1. The column block sizes of the storage is the same as the the column block sizes of the BandedBlockBandedMatrix. This is a block-wise version of the storage of BandedMatrix.

For example, if A is a BandedBlockBandedMatrix with block-bandwidths (A.l,A.u) == (1,0) and subblock-bandwidths (A.λ, A.μ) == (1,0), and the block sizes fill(2, N) where N = 3 is the number of row and column blocks, then A has zero structure

[ a_11  ⋅   │  ⋅    ⋅
  a_21 a_22 │  ⋅    ⋅
  ──────────┼──────────
  a_31  ⋅   │ a_33  ⋅
  a_41 a_42 │ a_43 a_44
  ──────────┼──────────
   ⋅    ⋅   │ a_53  ⋅
   ⋅    ⋅   │ a_63 a_64 ]

and is stored in memory via A.data as a BlockedMatrix, which has block sizes 2 x 2, containing entries:

[a_11 a_22 │ a_33 a_44
 a_21  ×   │ a_43  ×
 ──────────┼──────────
 a_31 a_42 │ a_53 a_64
 a_41  ×   │ a_63  ×   ]

where × is an entry in memory that is not used.

The reasoning behind this storage scheme as that each block still satisfies the banded matrix interface.
