Group manifolds

Lie groups, groups that are Riemannian manifolds with a smooth binary group operation AbstractGroupOperation, are implemented as AbstractDecoratorManifold and specifying the group operation using the IsGroupManifold or by decorating an existing manifold with a group operation using GroupManifold.

The common addition and multiplication group operations of AdditionOperation and MultiplicationOperation are provided, though their behavior may be customized for a specific group.

There are short introductions at the beginning of each subsection. They briefly mention what is available with links to more detailed descriptions.

Contents

Groups

The following operations are available for group manifolds:

  • Identity: an allocation-free representation of the identity element of the group.
  • inv: get the inverse of a given element.
  • compose: compose two given elements of a group.
  • identity_element get the identity element of the group, in the representation used by other points from the group.

Group manifold

GroupManifold adds a group structure to the wrapped manifold. It does not affect metric (or connection) structure of the wrapped manifold, however it can to be further wrapped in MetricManifold to get invariant metrics, or in a ConnectionManifold to equip it with a Cartan-Schouten connection.

Manifolds.AbstractGroupOperation โ€” Type
AbstractGroupOperation

Abstract type for smooth binary operations $โˆ˜$ on elements of a Lie group $\mathcal{G}$:

\[โˆ˜ : \mathcal{G} ร— \mathcal{G} โ†’ \mathcal{G}\]

An operation can be either defined for a specific group manifold over number system ๐”ฝ or in general, by defining for an operation Op the following methods:

identity_element!(::AbstractDecoratorManifold, q, q)
inv!(::AbstractDecoratorManifold, q, p)
_compose!(::AbstractDecoratorManifold, x, p, q)

Note that a manifold is connected with an operation by wrapping it with a decorator, AbstractDecoratorManifold using the IsGroupManifold to specify the operation. For a concrete case the concrete wrapper GroupManifold can be used.

Manifolds.GroupExponentialRetraction โ€” Type
GroupExponentialRetraction{D<:ActionDirectionAndSide} <: AbstractRetractionMethod

Retraction using the group exponential exp_lie "translated" to any point on the manifold.

For more details, see retract.

Constructor

source
Manifolds.GroupLogarithmicInverseRetraction โ€” Type
GroupLogarithmicInverseRetraction{D<:ActionDirectionAndSide} <: AbstractInverseRetractionMethod

source
Manifolds.Identity โ€” Type
Identity{O<:AbstractGroupOperation}

Represent the group identity element $e โˆˆ \mathcal{G}$ on a Lie group $\mathcal G$ with AbstractGroupOperation of type O.

Similar to the philosophy that points are agnostic of their group at hand, the identity does not store the group g it belongs to. However it depends on the type of the AbstractGroupOperation used.

See also identity_element on how to obtain the corresponding AbstractManifoldPoint or array representation.

Constructors

Identity(G::AbstractDecoratorManifold{๐”ฝ})
Identity(o::O)
Identity(::Type{O})

create the identity of the corresponding subtype O<:AbstractGroupOperation

source
Manifolds.IsGroupManifold โ€” Type
IsGroupManifold{O<:AbstractGroupOperation} <: AbstractTrait

A trait to declare an AbstractManifold as a manifold with group structure with operation of type O.

Using this trait you can turn a manifold that you implement implictly into a Lie group. If you wish to decorate an existing manifold with one (or different) AbstractGroupActions, see GroupManifold.

Constructor

IsGroupManifold(op::AbstractGroupOperation)
source
Manifolds.LeftAction โ€” Type
LeftAction()

Left action of a group on a manifold. For a forward action $ฮฑ: Gร—X โ†’ X$ it is characterized by

\[ฮฑ(g, ฮฑ(h, x)) = ฮฑ(gh, x)\]

for all $g, h โˆˆ G$ and $x โˆˆ X$.

source
Manifolds.LeftSide โ€” Type
LeftSide()

An action of a group on a manifold that acts from the left side, i.e. $ฮฑ: Gร—X โ†’ X$.

source
Manifolds.RightAction โ€” Type
RightAction()

Right action of a group on a manifold. For a forward action $ฮฑ: Gร—X โ†’ X$ it is characterized by

\[ฮฑ(g, ฮฑ(h, x)) = ฮฑ(hg, x)\]

for all $g, h โˆˆ G$ and $x โˆˆ X$.

Note that a right action may act from either left or right side in an expression.

source
Manifolds.RightSide โ€” Type
RightSide()

An action of a group on a manifold that acts from the right side, i.e. $ฮฑ: Xร—G โ†’ X$.

source
Base.inv โ€” Method
inv(G::AbstractDecoratorManifold, p)

Inverse $p^{-1} โˆˆ \mathcal{G}$ of an element $p โˆˆ \mathcal{G}$, such that $p \circ p^{-1} = p^{-1} \circ p = e โˆˆ \mathcal{G}$, where $e$ is the Identity element of $\mathcal{G}$.

source
Manifolds.adjoint_action โ€” Method
adjoint_action(G::AbstractDecoratorManifold, p, X)

Adjoint action of the element p of the Lie group G on the element X of the corresponding Lie algebra.

It is defined as the differential of the group authomorphism $ฮจ_p(q) = pqpโปยน$ at the identity of G.

The formula reads

\[\operatorname{Ad}_p(X) = dฮจ_p(e)[X]\]

where $e$ is the identity element of G.

Note that the adjoint representation of a Lie group isn't generally faithful. Notably the adjoint representation of SO(2) is trivial.

source
Manifolds.adjoint_inv_diff โ€” Method
adjoint_inv_diff(G::AbstractDecoratorManifold, p, X)

Compute the value of pullback of inverse $p^{-1} โˆˆ \mathcal{G}$ of an element $p โˆˆ \mathcal{G}$ at tangent vector X at $p^{-1}$. The result is a tangent vector at $p$.

source
Manifolds.compose โ€” Method
compose(G::AbstractDecoratorManifold, p, q)

Compose elements $p,q โˆˆ \mathcal{G}$ using the group operation $p \circ q$.

For implementing composition on a new group manifold, please overload _compose instead so that methods with Identity arguments are not ambiguous.

source
Manifolds.exp_lie โ€” Method
exp_lie(G, X)
exp_lie!(G, q, X)

Compute the group exponential of the Lie algebra element X. It is equivalent to the exponential map defined by the CartanSchoutenMinus connection.

Given an element $X โˆˆ ๐”ค = T_e \mathcal{G}$, where $e$ is the Identity element of the group $\mathcal{G}$, and $๐”ค$ is its Lie algebra, the group exponential is the map

\[\exp : ๐”ค โ†’ \mathcal{G},\]

such that for $t,s โˆˆ โ„$, $ฮณ(t) = \exp (t X)$ defines a one-parameter subgroup with the following properties. Note that one-parameter subgroups are commutative (see [Suh13], section 3.5), even if the Lie group itself is not commutative.

\[\begin{aligned} ฮณ(t) &= ฮณ(-t)^{-1}\\ ฮณ(t + s) &= ฮณ(t) \circ ฮณ(s) = ฮณ(s) \circ ฮณ(t)\\ ฮณ(0) &= e\\ \lim_{t โ†’ 0} \frac{d}{dt} ฮณ(t) &= X. \end{aligned}\]

Note

In general, the group exponential map is distinct from the Riemannian exponential map exp.

For example for the MultiplicationOperation and either Number or AbstractMatrix the Lie exponential is the numeric/matrix exponential.

\[\exp X = \operatorname{Exp} X = \sum_{n=0}^โˆž \frac{1}{n!} X^n.\]

Since this function also depends on the group operation, make sure to implement the corresponding trait version exp_lie(::TraitList{<:IsGroupManifold}, G, X).

source
Manifolds.get_vector_lie โ€” Method
get_vector_lie(G::AbstractDecoratorManifold, a, B::AbstractBasis)

Reconstruct a tangent vector from the Lie algebra of G from cooordinates a of a basis B. This is similar to calling get_vector at the p=Identity(G).

source
Manifolds.identity_element โ€” Method
identity_element(G::AbstractDecoratorManifold)

Return a point representation of the Identity on the IsGroupManifold G. By default this representation is the default array or number representation. It should return the corresponding default representation of $e$ as a point on G if points are not represented by arrays.

source
Manifolds.inv_diff โ€” Method
inv_diff(G::AbstractDecoratorManifold, p, X)

source
Manifolds.inverse_translate โ€” Method
inverse_translate(G::AbstractDecoratorManifold, p, q, conv::ActionDirectionAndSide=LeftForwardAction())

Inverse translate group element $q$ by $p$ with the translation $ฯ„_p^{-1}$ with the specified convention, either left forward ($L_p^{-1}$), left backward ($R'_p^{-1}$), right backward ($R_p^{-1}$) or right forward ($L'_p^{-1}$), defined as ```math \begin{aligned} Lp^{-1} &: q โ†ฆ p^{-1} \circ q\ L'p^{-1} &: q โ†ฆ p \circ q\ Rp^{-1} &: q โ†ฆ q \circ p^{-1}\ R'p^{-1} &: q โ†ฆ q \circ p. \end{aligned}

source
Manifolds.inverse_translate_diff โ€” Method
inverse_translate_diff(G::AbstractDecoratorManifold, p, q, X, conv::ActionDirectionAndSide=LeftForwardAction())

For group elements $p, q โˆˆ \mathcal{G}$ and tangent vector $X โˆˆ T_q \mathcal{G}$, compute the action on $X$ of the differential of the inverse translation $ฯ„_p$ by $p$, with the specified left or right convention. The differential transports vectors:

\[(\mathrm{d}ฯ„_p^{-1})_q : T_q \mathcal{G} โ†’ T_{ฯ„_p^{-1} q} \mathcal{G}\\\]

source
Manifolds.lie_bracket โ€” Method
lie_bracket(G::AbstractDecoratorManifold, X, Y)

Lie bracket between elements X and Y of the Lie algebra corresponding to the Lie group G, cf. IsGroupManifold.

This can be used to compute the adjoint representation of a Lie algebra. Note that this representation isn't generally faithful. Notably the adjoint representation of ๐”ฐ๐”ฌ(2) is trivial.

source
Manifolds.log_lie โ€” Method
log_lie(G, q)
log_lie!(G, X, q)

Compute the Lie group logarithm of the Lie group element q. It is equivalent to the logarithmic map defined by the CartanSchoutenMinus connection.

Given an element $q โˆˆ \mathcal{G}$, compute the right inverse of the group exponential map exp_lie, that is, the element $\log q = X โˆˆ ๐”ค = T_e \mathcal{G}$, such that $q = \exp X$

Note

In general, the group logarithm map is distinct from the Riemannian logarithm map log.

For matrix Lie groups this is equal to the (matrix) logarithm:

\[\log q = \operatorname{Log} q = \sum_{n=1}^โˆž \frac{(-1)^{n+1}}{n} (q - e)^n,\]

where $e$ here is the Identity element, that is, $1$ for numeric $q$ or the identity matrix $I_m$ for matrix $q โˆˆ โ„^{mร—m}$.

Since this function also depends on the group operation, make sure to implement either

  • _log_lie(G, q) and _log_lie!(G, X, q) for the points not being the Identity
  • the trait version log_lie(::TraitList{<:IsGroupManifold}, G, e), log_lie(::TraitList{<:IsGroupManifold}, G, X, e) for own implementations of the identity case.

For group elements $p, q โˆˆ \mathcal{G}$ and tangent vector $X โˆˆ T_q \mathcal{G}$, compute the action of the differential of the translation $ฯ„_p$ by $p$ on $X$, with the specified left or right convention. The differential transports vectors:

\[(\mathrm{d}ฯ„_p)_q : T_q \mathcal{G} โ†’ T_{ฯ„_p q} \mathcal{G}\\\]

ManifoldsBase.hat โ€” Method
hat(M::AbstractDecoratorManifold{๐”ฝ,O}, ::Identity{O}, Xโฑ) where {๐”ฝ,O<:AbstractGroupOperation}

Given a basis $e_i$ on the tangent space at a the Identity and tangent component vector $X^i$, compute the equivalent vector representation ``X=X^i e_i**, where Einstein summation notation is used:

\[โˆง : X^i โ†ฆ X^i e_i\]

For array manifolds, this converts a vector representation of the tangent vector to an array representation. The vee map is the hat map's inverse.

\[\operatorname{retr}_p^{-1} = (\mathrm{d}ฯ„_p)_e \circ \log \circ ฯ„_p^{-1},\]

where $\log$ is the group logarithm (log_lie), and $(\mathrm{d}ฯ„_p)_e$ is the action of the differential of translation $ฯ„_p$ evaluated at the identity element $e$ (see translate_diff).

    X,
    method::GroupExponentialRetraction,

\[\operatorname{retr}_p = ฯ„_p \circ \exp \circ (\mathrm{d}ฯ„_p^{-1})_p,\]

where $\exp$ is the group exponential (exp_lie), and $(\mathrm{d}ฯ„_p^{-1})_p$ is the action of the differential of inverse translation $ฯ„_p^{-1}$ evaluated at $p$ (see inverse_translate_diff).

source
ManifoldsBase.vee โ€” Method

For array manifolds, this converts an array representation of the tangent vector to a vector representation. The hat map is the vee map's inverse.

Addition Operation

Manifolds.adjoint_inv_diff โ€” Method

When tangent vectors are represented in Lie algebra in a left-invariant way, the formula reads $-p^\mathrm{T}X(p^{-1})^\mathrm{T}$.

Compute the exponential map on the GeneralLinear group.

The exponential map is

\[\exp_p \colon X โ†ฆ p \operatorname{Exp}(X^\mathrm{H}) \operatorname{Exp}(X - X^\mathrm{H}),\]

where $\operatorname{Exp}(โ‹…)$ denotes the matrix exponential, and $โ‹…^\mathrm{H}$ is the conjugate transpose [ALRV14] [NM16].

source
Base.log โ€” Method
log(G::GeneralLinear, p, q)

Compute the logarithmic map on the GeneralLinear(n) group.

The algorithm proceeds in two stages. First, the point $r = p^{-1} q$ is projected to the nearest element (under the Frobenius norm) of the direct product subgroup $\mathrm{O}(n) ร— S^+$, whose logarithmic map is exactly computed using the matrix logarithm. This initial tangent vector is then refined using the NLSolveInverseRetraction.

For GeneralLinear(n, โ„‚), the logarithmic map is instead computed on the realified supergroup GeneralLinear(2n) and the resulting tangent vector is then complexified.

Note that this implementation is experimental.

Base.rand โ€” Method
Random.rand(G::GeneralLinear; vector_at=nothing, kwargs...)

If vector_at is nothing, return a random point on the GeneralLinear group G by using rand in the embedding.

(Special) Orthogonal and (Special) Unitary group

ManifoldsBase.project โ€” Method
project(G::SpecialUnitary, p)

Project p to the nearest point on the SpecialUnitary group G.

Given the singular value decomposition $p = U S V^\mathrm{H}$, with the singular values sorted in descending order, the projection is

\[\operatorname{proj}_{\mathrm{SU}(n)}(p) = U\operatorname{diag}\left[1,1,โ€ฆ,\det(U V^\mathrm{H})\right] V^\mathrm{H}.\]

The diagonal matrix ensures that the determinant of the result is $+1$.

Unitary group

Manifolds.Unitary โ€” Type
 Unitary{n,๐”ฝ} = GeneralUnitaryMultiplicationGroup{n,๐”ฝ,AbsoluteDeterminantOneMatrices}

The group of unitary matrices $\mathrm{U}(n, ๐”ฝ)$, either complex (when ๐”ฝ=โ„‚) or quaternionic (when ๐”ฝ=โ„)

The group consists of all points $p โˆˆ ๐”ฝ^{nร—n}$ where $p^{\mathrm{H}}p = pp^{\mathrm{H}} = I$.

The tangent spaces are if the form

\[T_p\mathrm{U}(n) = \bigl\{ X \in ๐”ฝ^{nร—n} \big| X = pY \text{ where } Y = -Y^{\mathrm{H}} \bigr\}\]

and we represent tangent vectors by just storing the SkewHermitianMatrices $Y$, or in other words we represent the tangent spaces employing the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{u}(n, ๐”ฝ)$.

Quaternionic unitary group is isomorphic to the compact symplectic group of the same dimension.

Special linear group

Manifolds.SpecialLinear โ€” Type
SpecialLinear{T,๐”ฝ} <: AbstractDecoratorManifold

The special linear group $\mathrm{SL}(n,๐”ฝ)$ that is, the group of all invertible matrices with unit determinant in $๐”ฝ^{nร—n}$.

The Lie algebra $๐”ฐ๐”ฉ(n, ๐”ฝ) = T_e \mathrm{SL}(n,๐”ฝ)$ is the set of all matrices in $๐”ฝ^{nร—n}$ with trace of zero. By default, tangent vectors $X_p โˆˆ T_p \mathrm{SL}(n,๐”ฝ)$ for $p โˆˆ \mathrm{SL}(n,๐”ฝ)$ are represented with their corresponding Lie algebra vector $X_e = p^{-1}X_p โˆˆ ๐”ฐ๐”ฉ(n, ๐”ฝ)$.

The default metric is the same left-$\mathrm{GL}(n)$-right-$\mathrm{O}(n)$-invariant metric used for GeneralLinear(n, ๐”ฝ). The resulting geodesic on $\mathrm{GL}(n,๐”ฝ)$ emanating from an element of $\mathrm{SL}(n,๐”ฝ)$ in the direction of an element of $๐”ฐ๐”ฉ(n, ๐”ฝ)$ is a closed subgroup of $\mathrm{SL}(n,๐”ฝ)$.

Metrics on groups

Lie groups by default typically forward all metric-related operations like exponential or logarithmic map to the underlying manifold, for example SpecialOrthogonal uses methods for Rotations (which is, incidentally, bi-invariant), or SpecialEuclidean uses product metric of the translation and rotation parts (which is not invariant under group operation).

It is, however, possible to change the metric used by a group by wrapping it in a MetricManifold decorator.

    kwargs...,
) -> Bool

Check whether the metric on the group $\mathcal{G}$ is (approximately) invariant using a set of predefined points. Namely, for $p โˆˆ \mathcal{G}$, $X,Y โˆˆ T_p \mathcal{G}$, a metric $g$, and a translation map $ฯ„_q$ in the specified direction, check for each $q โˆˆ \mathcal{G}$ that the following condition holds:

\[g_p(X, Y) โ‰ˆ g_{ฯ„_q p}((\mathrm{d}ฯ„_q)_p X, (\mathrm{d}ฯ„_q)_p Y).\]

This is necessary but not sufficient for invariance.

Optionally, kwargs passed to isapprox may be provided.
