BUILT-IN MATHEMATICA SYMBOL
Arrays
Arrays[{d1, ..., dr}]
represents the domain of arrays of rank r and dimensions
.
Arrays[{d1, ..., dr}, dom]
represents the domain of arrays of dimensions
, with components in the domain dom.
Arrays[{d1, ..., dr}, dom, sym]
represents the subdomain of arrays with dimensions
and symmetry sym.
DetailsDetails
- The length r of the list of dimensions is the rank or depth of the arrays in the domain.
- Valid dimension specifications
in Arrays[{d1, ..., dr}, dom, sym] are positive integers. It is also possible to work with symbolic dimension specifications. - Valid component domain specifications dom are either Reals or Complexes. Arrays[{d1, ..., dr}] uses Complexes by default.
- The symmetry sym can be given in several forms. First, it can be given as expressions like Symmetric[{s1, ..., sk}] or Antisymmetric[{si, ..., sk}], with the slots
being different positive integers between 1 and the rank r. It can also be given as a list of generators of the form
, representing that the array stays invariant under simultaneous transposition by the permutation perm and multiplication by the root of unity
. In addition, it can be given as the internal direct product
of those forms. - When the symmetry is not specified, then none is assumed. The absence of symmetry, or identity symmetry, is represented by an empty list
of generators.
