Meta Manifolds

While the interface does not provide concrete manifolds itself, it does provide several manifolds that can be build based on a given AbstractManifold instance.

(Abstract) power manifold

A power manifold is constructed like higher dimensional vector spaces are formed from the real line, just that for every point $p = (p_1,\ldots,p_n) ∈ \mathcal M^n$ on the power manifold $\mathcal M^n$ the entries of $p$ are points $p_1,\ldots,p_n ∈ \mathcal M$ on some manifold $\mathcal M$. Note that $n$ can also be replaced by multiple values, such that $p$ is not a vector but a matrix or a multi-index array of points.

ManifoldsBase.PowerManifoldType
PowerManifold{𝔽,TM<:AbstractManifold,TSize,TPR<:AbstractPowerRepresentation} <: AbstractPowerManifold{𝔽,TM}

The power manifold $\mathcal M^{n_1× n_2 × … × n_d}$ with power geometry. TSize defines the number of elements along each axis, either statically using TypeParameter or storing it in a field.

For example, a manifold-valued time series would be represented by a power manifold with $d$ equal to 1 and $n_1$ equal to the number of samples. A manifold-valued image (for example in diffusion tensor imaging) would be represented by a two-axis power manifold ($d=2$) with $n_1$ and $n_2$ equal to width and height of the image.

While the size of the manifold is static, points on the power manifold would not be represented by statically-sized arrays.

Constructor

PowerManifold(M::PowerManifold, N_1, N_2, ..., N_d; parameter::Symbol=:field)
PowerManifold(M::AbstractManifold, NestedPowerRepresentation(), N_1, N_2, ..., N_d; parameter::Symbol=:field)
M^(N_1, N_2, ..., N_d)

Generate the power manifold $M^{N_1 × N_2 × … × N_d}$. By default, a PowerManifold is expanded further, i.e. for M=PowerManifold(N, 3) PowerManifold(M, 2) is equivalent to PowerManifold(N, 3, 2). Points are then 3×2 matrices of points on N. Providing a NestedPowerRepresentation as the second argument to the constructor can be used to nest manifold, i.e. PowerManifold(M, NestedPowerRepresentation(), 2) represents vectors of length 2 whose elements are vectors of length 3 of points on N in a nested array representation.

Since there is no default AbstractPowerRepresentation within this interface, the ^ operator is only available for PowerManifolds and concatenates dimensions.

parameter: whether a type parameter should be used to store n. By default size is stored in a field. Value can either be :field or :type.
