Multinomial doubly stochastic matrices

Manifolds.MultinomialDoubleStochasticType
MultinomialDoublyStochastic{n} <: AbstractMultinomialDoublyStochastic{N}

The set of doubly stochastic multinomial matrices consists of all $n×n$ matrices with stochastic columns and rows, i.e.

\[\begin{aligned} \mathcal{DP}(n) \coloneqq \bigl\{p ∈ ℝ^{n×n}\ \big|\ &p_{i,j} > 0 \text{ for all } i=1,…,n, j=1,…,m,\\ & p\mathbf{1}_n = p^{\mathrm{T}}\mathbf{1}_n = \mathbf{1}_n \bigr\}, \end{aligned}\]

where $\mathbf{1}_n$ is the vector of length $n$ containing ones.

The tangent space can be written as

\[T_p\mathcal{DP}(n) \coloneqq \bigl\{ X ∈ ℝ^{n×n}\ \big|\ X = X^{\mathrm{T}} \text{ and } X\mathbf{1}_n = X^{\mathrm{T}}\mathbf{1}_n = \mathbf{0}_n \bigr\},\]

where $\mathbf{0}_n$ is the vector of length $n$ containing zeros.

More details can be found in Section III[DouikHassibi2019].

Constructor

MultinomialDoubleStochastic(n)

Generate the manifold of matrices $\mathbb R^{n×n}$ that are doubly stochastic and symmetric.

ManifoldsBase.projectMethod
project(
    M::AbstractMultinomialDoublyStochastic,
    p;
    maxiter = 100,
    tolerance = eps(eltype(p))
)

project a matrix p with positive entries applying Sinkhorn's algorithm. Note that this projct method – different from the usual case, accepts keywords.

source
ManifoldsBase.projectMethod
project(M::MultinomialDoubleStochastic{n}, p, Y) where {n}

Project Y onto the tangent space at p on the MultinomialDoubleStochastic M, return the result in X. The formula reads

\[ \operatorname{proj}_p(Y) = Y - (α\mathbf{1}_n^{\mathrm{T}} + \mathbf{1}_nβ^{\mathrm{T}}) ⊙ p,\]

where $⊙$ denotes the Hadamard or elementwise product and $\mathbb{1}_n$ is the vector of length $n$ containing ones. The two vectors $α,β ∈ ℝ^{n×n}$ are computed as a solution (typically using the left pseudo inverse) of

\[ \begin{pmatrix} I_n & p\\p^{\mathrm{T}} & I_n \end{pmatrix} \begin{pmatrix} α\\ β\end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} Y\mathbf{1}\\Y^{\mathrm{T}}\mathbf{1}\end{pmatrix},\]

where $I_n$ is the $n×n$ unit matrix and $\mathbf{1}_n$ is the vector of length $n$ containing ones.

source
ManifoldsBase.retractMethod
retract(M::MultinomialDoubleStochastic, p, X, ::ProjectionRetraction)

compute a projection based retraction by projecting $p\odot\exp(X⨸p)$ back onto the manifold, where $⊙,⨸$ are elementwise multiplication and division, respectively. Similarly, $\exp$ refers to the elementwise exponentiation.

source
ManifoldsBase.vector_transport_toMethod
vector_transport_to(M::MultinomialDoubleStochastic, p, X, q)

transport the tangent vector X at p to q by projecting it onto the tangent space at q.
