Detailed Description

template<typename number = double, typename BlockVectorType = BlockVector<number>>
class BlockMatrixArray< number, BlockVectorType >

Block matrix composed of different single matrices; these matrices may even be of different types.

Given a set of arbitrary matrices Ai, this class implements a block matrix with block entries of the form Mjk = sjkAi. Each Ai may be used several times with different prefix. The matrices are not copied into the BlockMatrixArray object, but rather a PointerMatrix referencing each of them will be stored along with factors and transposition flags.

Non-zero entries are registered by the function enter(), zero entries are not stored at all. Using enter() with the same location (i,j) several times will add the corresponding matrices in matrix-vector multiplications. These matrices will not be actually added, but the multiplications with them will be summed up.

Note
This mechanism makes it impossible to access single entries of BlockMatrixArray. In particular, (block) relaxation preconditioners based on PreconditionRelaxation or PreconditionBlock cannot be used with this class. If you need a preconditioner for a BlockMatrixArray object, use BlockTrianglePrecondition.

Requirements on MatrixType

The template argument MatrixType is a class providing the matrix- vector multiplication functions vmult(), Tvmult(), vmult_add() and Tvmult_add() used in this class, but with arguments of type Vector<number> instead of BlockVector<number>. Every matrix which can be used by PointerMatrix is allowed, in particular SparseMatrix is a possible entry type.

Example program

We document the relevant parts of examples/doxygen/block_matrix_array.cc.

Obviously, we have to include the header file containing the definition of BlockMatrixArray:

#include <deal.II/lac/block_matrix_array.h>

First, we set up some matrices to be entered into the blocks.

int main ()
{
A.fill(Adata);
B1.fill(B1data);
B2.fill(B2data);
C.fill(Cdata);

Now, we are ready to build a 2x2 BlockMatrixArray.

First, we enter the matrix A multiplied by 2 in the upper left block
matrix.enter(A,0,0,2.);
Now -1 times B1 in the upper right block.
matrix.enter(B1,0,1,-1.);
We add the transpose of B2 to the upper right block and continue in a similar fashion. In the end, the block matrix structure is printed into an LaTeX table.
matrix.enter(B2,0,1,1., true);
matrix.enter(B2,1,0,1.);
matrix.enter(B1,1,0,-1., true);
matrix.enter(C,1,1);
matrix.print_latex(deallog);

Now, we set up vectors to be multiplied with this matrix and do a multiplication.

std::vector<unsigned int> block_sizes(2);
block_sizes[0] = 4;
block_sizes[1] = 2;
BlockVector<double> result(block_sizes);
BlockVector<double> x(block_sizes);
BlockVector<double> y(block_sizes);
for (unsigned int i=0; i<result.size(); ++i)
result(i) = i;
matrix.vmult(y, result);

Finally, we solve a linear system with BlockMatrixArray, using no preconditioning and the conjugate gradient method.

SolverControl control(100,1.e-10);
cg.solve(matrix, x, y, id);
x.add(-1., result);
deallog << "Error " << x.l2_norm() << std::endl;

The remaining code of this sample program concerns preconditioning and is described in the documentation of BlockTrianglePrecondition.

Member Typedef Documentation

◆ size_type

template<typename number = double, typename BlockVectorType = BlockVector<number>>
typedef types::global_dof_index BlockMatrixArray< number, BlockVectorType >::size_type

Declare the type for container size.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ BlockMatrixArray() [1/2]

template<typename number , typename BlockVectorType >
BlockMatrixArray< number, BlockVectorType >::BlockMatrixArray ( )

Default constructor creating a useless object. initialize() must be called before using it.

Definition at line 52 of file block_matrix_array.cc.

◆ BlockMatrixArray() [2/2]

template<typename number , typename BlockVectorType >
BlockMatrixArray< number, BlockVectorType >::BlockMatrixArray ( const unsigned int  n_block_rows,
const unsigned int  n_block_cols 
)

Constructor fixing the dimensions.

Definition at line 61 of file block_matrix_array.cc.

Member Function Documentation

◆ initialize()

template<typename number , typename BlockVectorType >
void BlockMatrixArray< number, BlockVectorType >::initialize ( const unsigned int  n_block_rows,
const unsigned int  n_block_cols 
)

Initialize object completely. This is the function to call for an object created by the default constructor.

Definition at line 71 of file block_matrix_array.cc.

◆ reinit()

template<typename number , typename BlockVectorType >
void BlockMatrixArray< number, BlockVectorType >::reinit ( const unsigned int  n_block_rows,
const unsigned int  n_block_cols 
)

Adjust the matrix to a new size and delete all blocks.

Definition at line 83 of file block_matrix_array.cc.

◆ enter()

template<typename number = double, typename BlockVectorType = BlockVector<number>>
template<typename MatrixType >
void BlockMatrixArray< number, BlockVectorType >::enter ( const MatrixType &  matrix,
const unsigned int  row,
const unsigned int  col,
const number  prefix = 1.,
const bool  transpose = false 
)

Add a block matrix entry. The matrix is entered into a list of blocks for multiplication, together with its coordinates row and col as well as optional multiplication factor prefix and transpose flag transpose.

Note
No check for consistency of block sizes is made. Therefore, entering a block of wrong dimension here will only lead to a ExcDimensionMismatch in one of the multiplication functions.

◆ clear()

template<typename number , typename BlockVectorType >
void BlockMatrixArray< number, BlockVectorType >::clear ( )

Delete all entries, i.e. reset the matrix to an empty state.

Definition at line 95 of file block_matrix_array.cc.

◆ n_block_rows()

template<typename number , typename BlockVectorType >
unsigned int BlockMatrixArray< number, BlockVectorType >::n_block_rows ( ) const

◆ n_block_cols()

template<typename number , typename BlockVectorType >
unsigned int BlockMatrixArray< number, BlockVectorType >::n_block_cols ( ) const

void BlockMatrixArray< number, BlockVectorType >::Tvmult ( BlockVectorType &  dst,
const BlockVectorType &  src 
) const

Definition at line 176 of file block_matrix_array.cc.

◆ Tvmult_add()

void BlockMatrixArray< number, BlockVectorType >::Tvmult_add ( BlockVectorType &  dst,
const BlockVectorType &  src 
) const

Definition at line 146 of file block_matrix_array.cc.

◆ matrix_scalar_product()

template<typename number , typename BlockVectorType >
number BlockMatrixArray< number, BlockVectorType >::matrix_scalar_product ( const BlockVectorType &  u,
const BlockVectorType &  v 
) const

◆ print_latex()

template<typename number = double, typename BlockVectorType = BlockVector<number>>
template<class StreamType >
void BlockMatrixArray< number, BlockVectorType >::print_latex ( StreamType &  out) const

Print the block structure as a LaTeX-array. This output will not be very intuitive, since the current object lacks knowledge about what the individual blocks represent or how they should be named. Instead, what you will see is an entry for each block showing all the matrices with their multiplication factors and possibly transpose marks. The matrices itself are named successively as they are encountered. If the same matrix is entered several times, it will be listed with different names.

As an example, consider the following code:

block.enter(A1,0,0);
block.enter(A2,0,0,2,true);
block.enter(B,0,1,-3.);
block.enter(B,0,1,-3.,true);
block.enter(C,1,1,1.,true);
block.print_latex(std::cout);

The current function will then produce output of the following kind:

\begin{array}{cc}
M0+2xM1^T & -3xM2-3xM3^T\\
& M4^T
\end{array}

Note how the individual blocks here are just numbered successively as M0 to M4 and that the output misses the fact that M2 and M3 are, in fact, the same matrix. Nevertheless, the output at least gives some kind of idea of the block structure of this matrix.
