Linear Algebra

In addition to (and as part of) its support for multi-dimensional arrays, Julia provides native implementations of many common and useful linear algebra operations which can be loaded with using LinearAlgebra. Basic operations, such as tr, det, and inv are all supported:

1. julia> A = [1 2 3; 4 1 6; 7 8 1]
2. 3×3 Matrix{Int64}:
3. 1  2  3
4. 4  1  6
5. 7  8  1

7. julia> tr(A)
8. 3

10. julia> det(A)
11. 104.0

13. julia> inv(A)
14. 3×3 Matrix{Float64}:
15. -0.451923   0.211538    0.0865385
16. 0.365385  -0.192308    0.0576923
17. 0.240385   0.0576923  -0.0673077

As well as other useful operations, such as finding eigenvalues or eigenvectors:

1. julia> A = [-4. -17.; 2. 2.]
2. 2×2 Matrix{Float64}:
3. -4.0  -17.0
4. 2.0    2.0

6. julia> eigvals(A)
7. 2-element Vector{ComplexF64}:
8. -1.0 - 5.0im
9. -1.0 + 5.0im

11. julia> eigvecs(A)
12. 2×2 Matrix{ComplexF64}:
13. 0.945905-0.0im        0.945905+0.0im
14. -0.166924+0.278207im  -0.166924-0.278207im

In addition, Julia provides many factorizations which can be used to speed up problems such as linear solve or matrix exponentiation by pre-factorizing a matrix into a form more amenable (for performance or memory reasons) to the problem. See the documentation on factorize for more information. As an example:

1. julia> A = [1.5 2 -4; 3 -1 -6; -10 2.3 4]
2. 3×3 Matrix{Float64}:
3. 1.5   2.0  -4.0
4. 3.0  -1.0  -6.0
5. -10.0   2.3   4.0

7. julia> factorize(A)
8. LU{Float64, Matrix{Float64}}
9. L factor:
10. 3×3 Matrix{Float64}:
11. 1.0    0.0       0.0
12. -0.15   1.0       0.0
13. -0.3   -0.132196  1.0
14. U factor:
15. 3×3 Matrix{Float64}:
16. -10.0  2.3     4.0
17. 0.0  2.345  -3.4
18. 0.0  0.0    -5.24947

Since A is not Hermitian, symmetric, triangular, tridiagonal, or bidiagonal, an LU factorization may be the best we can do. Compare with:

1. julia> B = [1.5 2 -4; 2 -1 -3; -4 -3 5]
2. 3×3 Matrix{Float64}:
3. 1.5   2.0  -4.0
4. 2.0  -1.0  -3.0
5. -4.0  -3.0   5.0

7. julia> factorize(B)
8. BunchKaufman{Float64, Matrix{Float64}}
9. D factor:
10. 3×3 Tridiagonal{Float64, Vector{Float64}}:
11. -1.64286   0.0   ⋅
12. 0.0      -2.8  0.0
13. ⋅        0.0  5.0
14. U factor:
15. 3×3 UnitUpperTriangular{Float64, Matrix{Float64}}:
16. 1.0  0.142857  -0.8
17. ⋅   1.0       -0.6
18. ⋅    ⋅         1.0
19. permutation:
20. 3-element Vector{Int64}:
21. 1
22. 2
23. 3

Here, Julia was able to detect that B is in fact symmetric, and used a more appropriate factorization. Often it’s possible to write more efficient code for a matrix that is known to have certain properties e.g. it is symmetric, or tridiagonal. Julia provides some special types so that you can “tag” matrices as having these properties. For instance:

1. julia> B = [1.5 2 -4; 2 -1 -3; -4 -3 5]
2. 3×3 Matrix{Float64}:
3. 1.5   2.0  -4.0
4. 2.0  -1.0  -3.0
5. -4.0  -3.0   5.0

7. julia> sB = Symmetric(B)
8. 3×3 Symmetric{Float64, Matrix{Float64}}:
9. 1.5   2.0  -4.0
10. 2.0  -1.0  -3.0
11. -4.0  -3.0   5.0

sB has been tagged as a matrix that’s (real) symmetric, so for later operations we might perform on it, such as eigenfactorization or computing matrix-vector products, efficiencies can be found by only referencing half of it. For example:

1. julia> B = [1.5 2 -4; 2 -1 -3; -4 -3 5]
2. 3×3 Matrix{Float64}:
3. 1.5   2.0  -4.0
4. 2.0  -1.0  -3.0
5. -4.0  -3.0   5.0

7. julia> sB = Symmetric(B)
8. 3×3 Symmetric{Float64, Matrix{Float64}}:
9. 1.5   2.0  -4.0
10. 2.0  -1.0  -3.0
11. -4.0  -3.0   5.0

13. julia> x = [1; 2; 3]
14. 3-element Vector{Int64}:
15. 1
16. 2
17. 3

19. julia> sB\x
20. 3-element Vector{Float64}:
21. -1.7391304347826084
22. -1.1086956521739126
23. -1.4565217391304346

The \ operation here performs the linear solution. The left-division operator is pretty powerful and it’s easy to write compact, readable code that is flexible enough to solve all sorts of systems of linear equations.

Special matrices

Matrices with special symmetries and structures arise often in linear algebra and are frequently associated with various matrix factorizations. Julia features a rich collection of special matrix types, which allow for fast computation with specialized routines that are specially developed for particular matrix types.

The following tables summarize the types of special matrices that have been implemented in Julia, as well as whether hooks to various optimized methods for them in LAPACK are available.

Elementary operations

The uniform scaling operator

A UniformScaling operator represents a scalar times the identity operator, λ*I. The identity operator I is defined as a constant and is an instance of UniformScaling. The size of these operators are generic and match the other matrix in the binary operations +, -, * and [](/read/Julia-1.6.4-en/ed6dfb34b0713c41.md#Base.:\-Tuple{Any, Any}). For A+I and A-I this means that A must be square. Multiplication with the identity operator I is a noop (except for checking that the scaling factor is one) and therefore almost without overhead.

To see the UniformScaling operator in action:

1. julia> U = UniformScaling(2);

3. julia> a = [1 2; 3 4]
4. 2×2 Matrix{Int64}:
5. 1  2
6. 3  4

8. julia> a + U
9. 2×2 Matrix{Int64}:
10. 3  2
11. 3  6

13. julia> a * U
14. 2×2 Matrix{Int64}:
15. 2  4
16. 6  8

18. julia> [a U]
19. 2×4 Matrix{Int64}:
20. 1  2  2  0
21. 3  4  0  2

23. julia> b = [1 2 3; 4 5 6]
24. 2×3 Matrix{Int64}:
25. 1  2  3
26. 4  5  6

28. julia> b - U
29. ERROR: DimensionMismatch("matrix is not square: dimensions are (2, 3)")
30. Stacktrace:
31. [...]

If you need to solve many systems of the form (A+μI)x = b for the same A and different μ, it might be beneficial to first compute the Hessenberg factorization F of A via the hessenberg function. Given F, Julia employs an efficient algorithm for (F+μ*I) \ b (equivalent to (A+μ*I)x \ b) and related operations like determinants.

Matrix factorizations

Matrix factorizations (a.k.a. matrix decompositions) compute the factorization of a matrix into a product of matrices, and are one of the central concepts in linear algebra.

The following table summarizes the types of matrix factorizations that have been implemented in Julia. Details of their associated methods can be found in the Standard functions section of the Linear Algebra documentation.

Standard functions

Linear algebra functions in Julia are largely implemented by calling functions from LAPACK. Sparse matrix factorizations call functions from SuiteSparse. Other sparse solvers are available as Julia packages.

Base.:* — Method

1. *(A::AbstractMatrix, B::AbstractMatrix)

Matrix multiplication.

Examples

1. julia> [1 1; 0 1] * [1 0; 1 1]
2. 2×2 Matrix{Int64}:
3. 2  1
4. 1  1

source

[Base.:](#Base.:\-Tuple{AbstractMatrix{T} where T, AbstractVecOrMat{T} where T}) — Method

1. \(A, B)

Matrix division using a polyalgorithm. For input matrices A and B, the result X is such that A*X == B when A is square. The solver that is used depends upon the structure of A. If A is upper or lower triangular (or diagonal), no factorization of A is required and the system is solved with either forward or backward substitution. For non-triangular square matrices, an LU factorization is used.

For rectangular A the result is the minimum-norm least squares solution computed by a pivoted QR factorization of A and a rank estimate of A based on the R factor.

When A is sparse, a similar polyalgorithm is used. For indefinite matrices, the LDLt factorization does not use pivoting during the numerical factorization and therefore the procedure can fail even for invertible matrices.

Examples

1. julia> A = [1 0; 1 -2]; B = [32; -4];

3. julia> X = A \ B
4. 2-element Vector{Float64}:
5. 32.0
6. 18.0

8. julia> A * X == B
9. true

LinearAlgebra.SingularException — Type

1. SingularException

Exception thrown when the input matrix has one or more zero-valued eigenvalues, and is not invertible. A linear solve involving such a matrix cannot be computed. The info field indicates the location of (one of) the singular value(s).

source

LinearAlgebra.PosDefException — Type

1. PosDefException

Exception thrown when the input matrix was not positive definite. Some linear algebra functions and factorizations are only applicable to positive definite matrices. The info field indicates the location of (one of) the eigenvalue(s) which is (are) less than/equal to 0.

source

LinearAlgebra.ZeroPivotException — Type

1. ZeroPivotException <: Exception

Exception thrown when a matrix factorization/solve encounters a zero in a pivot (diagonal) position and cannot proceed. This may not mean that the matrix is singular: it may be fruitful to switch to a diffent factorization such as pivoted LU that can re-order variables to eliminate spurious zero pivots. The info field indicates the location of (one of) the zero pivot(s).

LinearAlgebra.dot — Function

1. dot(x, y)
2. x ⋅ y

Compute the dot product between two vectors. For complex vectors, the first vector is conjugated.

dot also works on arbitrary iterable objects, including arrays of any dimension, as long as dot is defined on the elements.

dot is semantically equivalent to sum(dot(vx,vy) for (vx,vy) in zip(x, y)), with the added restriction that the arguments must have equal lengths.

x ⋅ y (where ⋅ can be typed by tab-completing \cdot in the REPL) is a synonym for dot(x, y).

Examples

1. julia> dot([1; 1], [2; 3])
2. 5

4. julia> dot([im; im], [1; 1])
5. 0 - 2im

7. julia> dot(1:5, 2:6)
8. 70

10. julia> x = fill(2., (5,5));

12. julia> y = fill(3., (5,5));

14. julia> dot(x, y)
15. 150.0

source

LinearAlgebra.dot — Method

1. dot(x, A, y)

Compute the generalized dot product dot(x, A*y) between two vectors x and y, without storing the intermediate result of A*y. As for the two-argument dot(_,_), this acts recursively. Moreover, for complex vectors, the first vector is conjugated.

Julia 1.4

Three-argument dot requires at least Julia 1.4.

Examples

1. julia> dot([1; 1], [1 2; 3 4], [2; 3])
2. 26

4. julia> dot(1:5, reshape(1:25, 5, 5), 2:6)
5. 4850

LinearAlgebra.factorize — Function

1. factorize(A)

Compute a convenient factorization of A, based upon the type of the input matrix. factorize checks A to see if it is symmetric/triangular/etc. if A is passed as a generic matrix. factorize checks every element of A to verify/rule out each property. It will short-circuit as soon as it can rule out symmetry/triangular structure. The return value can be reused for efficient solving of multiple systems. For example: A=factorize(A); x=A\b; y=A\C.

If factorize is called on a Hermitian positive-definite matrix, for instance, then factorize will return a Cholesky factorization.

Examples

1. julia> A = Array(Bidiagonal(fill(1.0, (5, 5)), :U))
2. 5×5 Matrix{Float64}:
3. 1.0  1.0  0.0  0.0  0.0
4. 0.0  1.0  1.0  0.0  0.0
5. 0.0  0.0  1.0  1.0  0.0
6. 0.0  0.0  0.0  1.0  1.0
7. 0.0  0.0  0.0  0.0  1.0

9. julia> factorize(A) # factorize will check to see that A is already factorized
10. 5×5 Bidiagonal{Float64, Vector{Float64}}:
11. 1.0  1.0   ⋅    ⋅    ⋅

14. ⋅    ⋅    ⋅   1.0  1.0
15. ⋅    ⋅    ⋅    ⋅   1.0

This returns a 5×5 Bidiagonal{Float64}, which can now be passed to other linear algebra functions (e.g. eigensolvers) which will use specialized methods for Bidiagonal types.

LinearAlgebra.UpperHessenberg — Type

1. UpperHessenberg(A::AbstractMatrix)

Construct an UpperHessenberg view of the matrix A. Entries of A below the first subdiagonal are ignored.

Efficient algorithms are implemented for H \ b, det(H), and similar.

See also the hessenberg function to factor any matrix into a similar upper-Hessenberg matrix.

If F::Hessenberg is the factorization object, the unitary matrix can be accessed with F.Q and the Hessenberg matrix with F.H. When Q is extracted, the resulting type is the HessenbergQ object, and may be converted to a regular matrix with convert(Array, _) (or Array(_) for short).

Iterating the decomposition produces the factors F.Q and F.H.

Abstract type for matrix factorizations a.k.a. matrix decompositions. See online documentation for a list of available matrix factorizations.

source

LinearAlgebra.LU — Type

1. LU <: Factorization

Matrix factorization type of the LU factorization of a square matrix A. This is the return type of lu, the corresponding matrix factorization function.

The individual components of the factorization F::LU can be accessed via getproperty:

Iterating the factorization produces the components F.L, F.U, and F.p.

Examples

1. julia> A = [4 3; 6 3]
2. 2×2 Matrix{Int64}:
3. 4  3

LinearAlgebra.lu — Function

1. lu(A::SparseMatrixCSC; check = true) -> F::UmfpackLU

Compute the LU factorization of a sparse matrix A.

For sparse A with real or complex element type, the return type of F is UmfpackLU{Tv, Ti}, with Tv = Float64 or ComplexF64 respectively and Ti is an integer type (Int32 or Int64).

When check = true, an error is thrown if the decomposition fails. When check = false, responsibility for checking the decomposition’s validity (via issuccess) lies with the user.

The individual components of the factorization F can be accessed by indexing:

The relation between F and A is

F.L*F.U == (F.Rs .* A)[F.p, F.q]

F further supports the following functions:

• [](/read/Julia-1.6.4-en/ed6dfb34b0713c41.md#Base.:\-Tuple{Any, Any})
• cond
• det

Note

lu(A::SparseMatrixCSC) uses the UMFPACK library that is part of SuiteSparse. As this library only supports sparse matrices with Float64 or ComplexF64 elements, lu converts A into a copy that is of type SparseMatrixCSC{Float64} or SparseMatrixCSC{ComplexF64} as appropriate.

source

1. lu(A, pivot=Val(true); check = true) -> F::LU

Compute the LU factorization of A.

When check = true, an error is thrown if the decomposition fails. When check = false, responsibility for checking the decomposition’s validity (via issuccess) lies with the user.

In most cases, if A is a subtype S of AbstractMatrix{T} with an element type T supporting +, -, * and /, the return type is LU{T,S{T}}. If pivoting is chosen (default) the element type should also support abs and <.

The individual components of the factorization F can be accessed via getproperty:

Iterating the factorization produces the components F.L, F.U, and F.p.

The relationship between F and A is

F.L*F.U == A[F.p, :]

F further supports the following functions:

Examples

1. julia> A = [4 3; 6 3]
2. 2×2 Matrix{Int64}:
3. 4  3
4. 6  3

6. julia> F = lu(A)

8. L factor:
9. 2×2 Matrix{Float64}:

14. 6.0  3.0
15. 0.0  1.0

17. julia> F.L * F.U == A[F.p, :]
18. true

20. julia> l, u, p = lu(A); # destructuring via iteration

22. julia> l == F.L && u == F.U && p == F.p
23. true

source

LinearAlgebra.lu! — Function

1. lu!(F::UmfpackLU, A::SparseMatrixCSC; check=true) -> F::UmfpackLU

Compute the LU factorization of a sparse matrix A, reusing the symbolic factorization of an already existing LU factorization stored in F. The sparse matrix A must have an identical nonzero pattern as the matrix used to create the LU factorization F, otherwise an error is thrown.

When check = true, an error is thrown if the decomposition fails. When check = false, responsibility for checking the decomposition’s validity (via issuccess) lies with the user.

Note

lu!(F::UmfpackLU, A::SparseMatrixCSC) uses the UMFPACK library that is part of SuiteSparse. As this library only supports sparse matrices with Float64 or ComplexF64 elements, lu! converts A into a copy that is of type SparseMatrixCSC{Float64} or SparseMatrixCSC{ComplexF64} as appropriate.

Julia 1.5

lu! for UmfpackLU requires at least Julia 1.5.

Examples

1. julia> A = sparse(Float64[1.0 2.0; 0.0 3.0]);

3. julia> F = lu(A);

5. julia> B = sparse(Float64[1.0 1.0; 0.0 1.0]);

7. julia> lu!(F, B);

9. julia> F \ ones(2)
10. 2-element Vector{Float64}:
11. 0.0
12. 1.0

source

1. lu!(A, pivot=Val(true); check = true) -> LU

lu! is the same as lu, but saves space by overwriting the input A, instead of creating a copy. An InexactError exception is thrown if the factorization produces a number not representable by the element type of A, e.g. for integer types.
