| | Finite difference weights |
| | ========================= |
| | |
| | This module implements an algorithm for efficient generation of finite |
| | difference weights for ordinary differentials of functions for |
| | derivatives from 0 (interpolation) up to arbitrary order. |
| | |
| | The core algorithm is provided in the finite difference weight generating |
| | function (``finite_diff_weights``), and two convenience functions are provided |
| | for: |
| | |
| | - estimating a derivative (or interpolate) directly from a series of points |
| | is also provided (``apply_finite_diff``). |
| | - differentiating by using finite difference approximations |
| | (``differentiate_finite``). |

| | def finite_diff_weights(order, x_list, x0=S.One): |
| | """ |
| | Calculates the finite difference weights for an arbitrarily spaced |

| | |
| | Parameters |
| | ========== |
| | |
| | order: int |
| | Up to what derivative order weights should be calculated. |
| | 0 corresponds to interpolation. |
| | x_list: sequence |
| | Sequence of (unique) values for the independent variable. |
| | It is useful (but not necessary) to order ``x_list`` from |
| | nearest to furthest from ``x0``; see examples below. |
| | x0: Number or Symbol |
| | Root or value of the independent variable for which the finite |
| | difference weights should be generated. Default is ``S.One``. |
| | |
| | Returns |
| | ======= |
| | |
| | list |
| | A list of sublists, each corresponding to coefficients for |
| | increasing derivative order, and each containing lists of |
| | coefficients for increasing subsets of x_list. |
| | |
| | Examples |
| | ======== |
| | |
| | >>> from sympy import finite_diff_weights, S |
| | >>> res = finite_diff_weights(1, [-S(1)/2, S(1)/2, S(3)/2, S(5)/2], 0) |
| | >>> res |
| | [[[1, 0, 0, 0], |
| | [1/2, 1/2, 0, 0], |
| | [3/8, 3/4, -1/8, 0], |
| | [5/16, 15/16, -5/16, 1/16]], |
| | [[0, 0, 0, 0], |
| | [-1, 1, 0, 0], |
| | [-1, 1, 0, 0], |
| | [-23/24, 7/8, 1/8, -1/24]]] |
| | >>> res[0][-1] # FD weights for 0th derivative, using full x_list |
| | [5/16, 15/16, -5/16, 1/16] |
| | >>> res[1][-1] # FD weights for 1st derivative |
| | [-23/24, 7/8, 1/8, -1/24] |
| | >>> res[1][-2] # FD weights for 1st derivative, using x_list[:-1] |
| | [-1, 1, 0, 0] |
| | >>> res[1][-1][0] # FD weight for 1st deriv. for x_list[0] |
| | -23/24 |
| | >>> res[1][-1][1] # FD weight for 1st deriv. for x_list[1], etc. |
| | 7/8 |
| | |
| | Each sublist contains the most accurate formula at the end. |
| | Note, that in the above example ``res[1][1]`` is the same as ``res[1][2]``. |
| | Since res[1][2] has an order of accuracy of |
| | ``len(x_list[:3]) - order = 3 - 1 = 2``, the same is true for ``res[1][1]``! |
| | |
| | >>> res = finite_diff_weights(1, [S(0), S(1), -S(1), S(2), -S(2)], 0)[1] |
| | >>> res |
| | [[0, 0, 0, 0, 0], |
| | [-1, 1, 0, 0, 0], |
| | [0, 1/2, -1/2, 0, 0], |
| | [-1/2, 1, -1/3, -1/6, 0], |
| | [0, 2/3, -2/3, -1/12, 1/12]] |
| | >>> res[0] # no approximation possible, using x_list[0] only |
| | [0, 0, 0, 0, 0] |
| | >>> res[1] # classic forward step approximation |
| | [-1, 1, 0, 0, 0] |
| | >>> res[2] # classic centered approximation |
| | [0, 1/2, -1/2, 0, 0] |
| | >>> res[3:] # higher order approximations |
| | [[-1/2, 1, -1/3, -1/6, 0], [0, 2/3, -2/3, -1/12, 1/12]] |
| | |
| | Let us compare this to a differently defined ``x_list``. Pay attention to |
| | ``foo[i][k]`` corresponding to the gridpoint defined by ``x_list[k]``. |
| | |
| | >>> foo = finite_diff_weights(1, [-S(2), -S(1), S(0), S(1), S(2)], 0)[1] |
| | >>> foo |
| | [[0, 0, 0, 0, 0], |
| | [-1, 1, 0, 0, 0], |
| | [1/2, -2, 3/2, 0, 0], |
| | [1/6, -1, 1/2, 1/3, 0], |
| | [1/12, -2/3, 0, 2/3, -1/12]] |
| | >>> foo[1] # not the same and of lower accuracy as res[1]! |
| | [-1, 1, 0, 0, 0] |
| | >>> foo[2] # classic double backward step approximation |
| | [1/2, -2, 3/2, 0, 0] |
| | >>> foo[4] # the same as res[4] |
| | [1/12, -2/3, 0, 2/3, -1/12] |
| | |
| | Note that, unless you plan on using approximations based on subsets of |
| | ``x_list``, the order of gridpoints does not matter. |
| | |
| | The capability to generate weights at arbitrary points can be |
| | used e.g. to minimize Runge's phenomenon by using Chebyshev nodes: |
| | |
| | >>> from sympy import cos, symbols, pi, simplify |
| | >>> N, (h, x) = 4, symbols('h x') |
| | >>> x_list = [x+h*cos(i*pi/(N)) for i in range(N,-1,-1)] # chebyshev nodes |
| | >>> print(x_list) |
| | [-h + x, -sqrt(2)*h/2 + x, x, sqrt(2)*h/2 + x, h + x] |
| | >>> mycoeffs = finite_diff_weights(1, x_list, 0)[1][4] |
| | >>> [simplify(c) for c in mycoeffs] #doctest: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE |
| | [(h**3/2 + h**2*x - 3*h*x**2 - 4*x**3)/h**4, |
| | (-sqrt(2)*h**3 - 4*h**2*x + 3*sqrt(2)*h*x**2 + 8*x**3)/h**4, |
| | (6*h**2*x - 8*x**3)/h**4, |
| | (sqrt(2)*h**3 - 4*h**2*x - 3*sqrt(2)*h*x**2 + 8*x**3)/h**4, |
| | (-h**3/2 + h**2*x + 3*h*x**2 - 4*x**3)/h**4] |
| | |
| | Notes |
| | ===== |
| | |
| | If weights for a finite difference approximation of 3rd order |
| | derivative is wanted, weights for 0th, 1st and 2nd order are |
| | calculated "for free", so are formulae using subsets of ``x_list``. |
| | This is something one can take advantage of to save computational cost. |
| | Be aware that one should define ``x_list`` from nearest to furthest from |
| | ``x0``. If not, subsets of ``x_list`` will yield poorer approximations, |
| | which might not grand an order of accuracy of ``len(x_list) - order``. |

| | Returns an approximation of a derivative of a function in |

| | weighted sum of the function at a number of discrete values of |
| | (one of) the independent variable(s). |
| | |
| | Parameters |
| | ========== |
| | |
| | derivative: a Derivative instance |
| | |
| | points: sequence or coefficient, optional |
| | If sequence: discrete values (length >= order+1) of the |
| | independent variable used for generating the finite |
| | difference weights. |
| | If it is a coefficient, it will be used as the step-size |
| | for generating an equidistant sequence of length order+1 |
| | centered around ``x0``. default: 1 (step-size 1) |
| | |
| | x0: number or Symbol, optional |
| | the value of the independent variable (``wrt``) at which the |
| | derivative is to be approximated. Default: same as ``wrt``. |
| | |
| | wrt: Symbol, optional |
| | "with respect to" the variable for which the (partial) |
| | derivative is to be approximated for. If not provided it |
| | is required that the Derivative is ordinary. Default: ``None``. |
| | |
| | Examples |
| | ======== |
| | |
| | >>> from sympy import symbols, Function, exp, sqrt, Symbol |
| | >>> from sympy.calculus.finite_diff import _as_finite_diff |
| | >>> x, h = symbols('x h') |
| | >>> f = Function('f') |
| | >>> _as_finite_diff(f(x).diff(x)) |
| | -f(x - 1/2) + f(x + 1/2) |
| | |
| | The default step size and number of points are 1 and ``order + 1`` |
| | respectively. We can change the step size by passing a symbol |
| | as a parameter: |
| | |
| | >>> _as_finite_diff(f(x).diff(x), h) |
| | -f(-h/2 + x)/h + f(h/2 + x)/h |
| | |
| | We can also specify the discretized values to be used in a sequence: |
| | |
| | >>> _as_finite_diff(f(x).diff(x), [x, x+h, x+2*h]) |
| | -3*f(x)/(2*h) + 2*f(h + x)/h - f(2*h + x)/(2*h) |
| | |
| | The algorithm is not restricted to use equidistant spacing, nor |
| | do we need to make the approximation around ``x0``, but we can get |
| | an expression estimating the derivative at an offset: |
| | |
| | >>> e, sq2 = exp(1), sqrt(2) |
| | >>> xl = [x-h, x+h, x+e*h] |
| | >>> _as_finite_diff(f(x).diff(x, 1), xl, x+h*sq2) |
| | 2*h*((h + sqrt(2)*h)/(2*h) - (-sqrt(2)*h + h)/(2*h))*f(E*h + x)/((-h + E*h)*(h + E*h)) + |
| | (-(-sqrt(2)*h + h)/(2*h) - (-sqrt(2)*h + E*h)/(2*h))*f(-h + x)/(h + E*h) + |
| | (-(h + sqrt(2)*h)/(2*h) + (-sqrt(2)*h + E*h)/(2*h))*f(h + x)/(-h + E*h) |
| | |
| | Partial derivatives are also supported: |
| | |
| | >>> y = Symbol('y') |
| | >>> d2fdxdy=f(x,y).diff(x,y) |
| | >>> _as_finite_diff(d2fdxdy, wrt=x) |
| | -Derivative(f(x - 1/2, y), y) + Derivative(f(x + 1/2, y), y) |
