Coordinates on positive-diagonal lower-triangular matrices #
A lower-triangular matrix is determined by its on-or-below-diagonal entries. Reading off these
entries identifies the positive-diagonal lower-triangular matrices with the functions on the
lower-triangular positions whose diagonal values are positive. This file packages that
identification as a homeomorphism for the subtype topologies on both sides, and as a measurable
equivalence for the corresponding Borel structures. These are the product coordinates in which
the Jacobian of Cholesky reconstruction is computed. The file also reads the determinant of a
lower-triangular matrix and the trace of its Gram matrix L * Lᵀ off these coordinates,
records how a product over the lower-triangular positions splits into a product over the rows,
and combines these into the factorization, one factor per coordinate, of a determinant power
times an exponential trace factor that underlies Cholesky-coordinate density computations.
Main declarations #
TauCeti.lowerTriangle— the index type of on-or-below-diagonal positions.TauCeti.lowerTriangleMatrix— the lower-triangular matrix with prescribed entries there.TauCeti.PosDiagLowerCoordinates— the coordinate functions with positive diagonal values.TauCeti.lowerTriangleCoordinatesHomeomorph— the coordinate homeomorphism.TauCeti.lowerTriangleCoordinates— its measurable-equivalence form.TauCeti.prod_lowerTriangle_diag_rpow_mul_exp_neg_sq— the coordinatewise factorization of a determinant power times an exponential trace factor.
A product over the lower-triangular positions of a quantity that depends only on the row
index, and only through whether the position is diagonal, collapses to a product over the rows:
row i has one diagonal position and i strictly lower ones.
Real functions on the lower-triangular positions whose diagonal values are positive: the
coordinate space of TauCeti.PosDiagLowerTriangular p.

Instances For
A lower-triangular matrix is rebuilt from its on-or-below-diagonal entries.
A lower-triangular matrix has determinant the product of its diagonal entries, which in coordinates are the values at the diagonal positions.
The trace of the Gram matrix L * Lᵀ of a lower-triangular L is the sum of the squares of
the on-or-below-diagonal coordinates of L: the entries above the diagonal contribute nothing.
The common algebraic core of Cholesky-coordinate density factorizations. A determinant power,
the Cholesky diagonal powers, and an exponential trace factor split into one factor per lower
triangular coordinate; c and b supply the diagonal and off-diagonal constants.
Reading off the on-or-below-diagonal entries is a homeomorphism from the positive-diagonal lower-triangular matrices to their coordinate space. Its inverse fills the positions above the diagonal with zeros.
