Overload 1: TMtx LUSolve(TMtx B, TMtx X, TMtxType MtxType, TMtxOperation Operation)

Desc Matrix version of LUSolve. Perfroms a LUSolve for each B and X matrices columns in single pass.

Result: stored in self (calling object), returns self for chaining

Overload 2: TMtx LUSolve(TMtx B, TMtx X, TMtxType MtxType, TMtxOperation Operation, TMtx Mtx, TMtx OrigMtx, TVecInt pipiv)

Finds solution with an already precomputed factorzation.

2XTMtxsource TMtx
3MtxTypeTMtxType
4OperationTMtxOperation
5MtxTMtxsource TMtx
6OrigMtxTMtxsource TMtx

Result: stored in self (calling object), returns self for chaining

Remarks:

Mtx, origMtx and ipiv contain result of factorization on exit. The factorization was obtained with a previous call to LUSolve, which did not require B and X params.

Overload 3: TMtx LUSolve(TMtxType MtxType, TMtx Mtx, TMtx OrigMtx, TVecInt pipiv)

Performs factorization for LUSolve.

#NameTypeDescription
1MtxTypeTMtxType
2MtxTMtxsource TMtx
3OrigMtxTMtxsource TMtx
4pipivTVecIntsource TVecInt

Result: stored in self (calling object), returns self for chaining

Remarks:

Mtx, origMtx and ipiv contain result of factorization on exit. This result is again to be passed to the LUSolve together with B to obtain solution for X.

Examples
TMtx LU;
TMtx A;
TMtx W1;
TMtx W2;
TVecInt P;
TVec B;
TVec X;
MtxVec.CreateIt(out LU, out A, out W1, out W2);
MtxVec.CreateIt(out P);
MtxVec.CreateIt(out B, out X);
try
    {
        A.RefineSolution = true; //it is false by default
        A.SetIt(2,2,false,[1,2,
        3,4]);

        B.SetIt(2,false, [1,
        0 ]);

        //Perform factorization:
        A.LUSolve(mtGeneral, W1, W2, P);  //OrigMtx param can be nil, if A.RefineSolution = false

        //Perform solution with given factorization:
        A.LUSolve(B, X, mtGeneral, opNone, W1, W2, P);  //X now holds solution
    }
finally
    {
        MtxVec.FreeIt(ref LU, ref A, ref W1, ref W2);
        MtxVec.FreeIt(ref B, ref X);
        MtxVec.FreeIt(ref P);
    }

Overload 4: TMtx LUSolve(TVec B, TVec X, TMtxType MtxType, TMtxOperation Operation)

Solves system of linear equations by using LU factorization.

#NameTypeDescription
1BTVecsource TVec
2XTVecsource TVec
3MtxTypeTMtxType
4OperationTMtxOperation

Result: stored in self (calling object), returns self for chaining

Remarks:

Uses the LU factorization to solve the system of linear equations. AX = B. The matrix must be full rank. If there are more rows than columns use the least square solver Dew.Math.Matrix.LQRSolve and if the matrix is also rank deficient use the Dew.Math.Matrix.SVDSolve method. MtxType allows the selection of an optimized algorithm and Op defines the operation to be performed on the calling matrix prior to solve.

LUSolve also supports banded matrices. The banded matrix storage is defined with the help of two additional properties: Dew.Math.Matrix.SubDiag and Dew.Math.Matrix.SuperDiag. SubDiag defines the number of non-zero subdiagonals and the SuperDiag the number of non-zero super diagonals. An example of the storage format for the first sub and super diagonal:

A.SubDiag := 1;
A.SuperDiag := 1;
A.Size(3,6);
// ...
[0 , ud2, ud3, ud4 ,ud5 ,ud6]   first upper diagonal
[md1, md2, md3, md4, md5, md6]      main diagonal
[ld1, ld2, ld3, ld4, ld5,  0] first lower diagonal

The columns must be aligned. All the diagonals between the SubDiag and SuperDiag diagonals including the main diagonal must always be included. Similarly you can define two sub/super diagonal storage format :

aXY =   (X Row Index, Y Column Index)

[a11,  a12,  a13,      0,     0,     0]
[a21,  a22,  a23,  a24,     0,     0]
[a31,  a32,  a33,  a34,  a35,     0]
[0,      a42,  a43,  a44,  a45, a46]
[0,          0,  a53,  a54,  a55, a56]
[0,          0,      0,  a64,  a65, a66]

A.SubDiag := 2;
A.SuperDiag := 2;
A.Size(5,6);

[0   ,  0,  a13, a24 ,a35, a46]    second upper diagonal
[0   , a12, a23, a34, a45, a56]     first upper diagonal
[a11 , a22, a33, a44, a55, a66]      main diagonal
[a21 , a32, a43, a54, a65,   0]     first lower diagonal
[a31 , a42, a53, a64,   0,   0]     second lower diagonal

If you would like to solve X for several different B vectors (from the formula AX= B), you can pass TMtx objects to LUSolve method. With one call you solve the system for several different B vectors and save time.
