1 Purpose

f01jfc computes the Fréchet derivative

L (A, E)

of the

p

th power (where

p

is real) of the real

n

n

matrix

A

applied to the real

n

n

matrix

E

. The principal matrix power

A^{p}

is also returned.

2 Specification

#include <nag.h>

void	f01jfc (Integer n, double a[], Integer pda, double e[], Integer pde, double p, NagError *fail)

The function may be called by the names: f01jfc or nag_matop_real_gen_matrix_frcht_pow.

3 Description

For a matrix

A

with no eigenvalues on the closed negative real line,

A^{p}

(

p \in ℝ

) can be defined as

A^{p} = \exp (p \log (A))

where

\log (A)

is the principal logarithm of

A

(the unique logarithm whose spectrum lies in the strip

\{z : - π < Im (z) < π\}

The Fréchet derivative of the matrix

p

th power of

A

is the unique linear mapping

E ⟼ L (A, E)

such that for any matrix

E

{(A + E)}^{p} - A^{p} - L (A, E) = o (‖E‖) .

The derivative describes the first-order effect of perturbations in

A

on the matrix power

A^{p}

f01jfc uses the algorithms of Higham and Lin (2011) and Higham and Lin (2013) to compute

A^{p}

and

L (A, E)

. The real number

p

is expressed as

p = q + r

where

q \in (- 1, 1)

and

r \in ℤ

. Then

A^{p} = A^{q} A^{r}

. The integer power

A^{r}

is found using a combination of binary powering and, if necessary, matrix inversion. The fractional power

A^{q}

is computed using a Schur decomposition, a Padé approximant and the scaling and squaring method. The Padé approximant is differentiated in order to obtain the Fréchet derivative of

A^{q}

and

L (A, E)

is then computed using a combination of the chain rule and the product rule for Fréchet derivatives.

NE_INTERNAL_ERROR: An internal error has occurred in this function. Check the function call and any array sizes. If the call is correct then please contact NAG for assistance.
See Section 7.5 in the Introduction to the NAG Library CL Interface for further information.
NE_NEGATIVE_EIGVAL: $A$ has eigenvalues on the negative real line. The principal $p$ th power is not defined in this case; f01kfc can be used to find a complex, non-principal $p$ th power.

NE_SINGULAR: $A$ is singular so the $p$ th power cannot be computed.
NW_SOME_PRECISION_LOSS: $A^{p}$ has been computed using an IEEE double precision Padé approximant, although the arithmetic precision is higher than IEEE double precision.

7 Accuracy

For a normal matrix

A

(for which

A^{T} A = A A^{T}

), the Schur decomposition is diagonal and the computation of the fractional part of the matrix power reduces to evaluating powers of the eigenvalues of

A

and then constructing

A^{p}

using the Schur vectors. This should give a very accurate result. In general, however, no error bounds are available for the algorithm. See Higham and Lin (2011) and Higham and Lin (2013) for details and further discussion.

If the condition number of the matrix power is required then f01jec should be used.

8 Parallelism and Performance

f01jfc is threaded by NAG for parallel execution in multithreaded implementations of the NAG Library.

f01jfc makes calls to BLAS and/or LAPACK routines, which may be threaded within the vendor library used by this implementation. Consult the documentation for the vendor library for further information.

Please consult the X06 Chapter Introduction for information on how to control and interrogate the OpenMP environment used within this function. Please also consult the Users' Note for your implementation for any additional implementation-specific information.

9 Further Comments

The real allocatable memory required by the algorithm is approximately

6 \times n^{2}

The cost of the algorithm is

O (n^{3})

floating-point operations; see Higham and Lin (2011) and Higham and Lin (2013).

If the matrix

p

th power alone is required, without the Fréchet derivative, then f01eqc should be used. If the condition number of the matrix power is required then f01jec should be used. If

A

has negative real eigenvalues then f01kfc can be used to return a complex, non-principal

p

th power and its Fréchet derivative

L (A, E)

10 Example

This example finds

A^{p}

and the Fréchet derivative of the matrix power

L (A, E)

, where

p = 0.2

A = (\begin{array}{r} 3 & 3 & 2 & 1 \\ 3 & 1 & 0 & 2 \\ 1 & 1 & 4 & 3 \\ 3 & 0 & 3 & 1 \end{array}) and E = (\begin{array}{r} 1 & 0 & 2 & 1 \\ 0 & 4 & 5 & 2 \\ 1 & 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 2 & 3 & 3 & 0 \end{array}) .
