• γ::Any: branch associated to the current node

• child::Any: children of current node. These are the different branches off the bifurcation point in γ

struct BifFunction{Tf, Tdf, Tdfad, Tj, Tjad, Td2f, Td2fc, Td3f, Td3fc, Tsym, Tδ} <: BifurcationKit.AbstractBifurcationFunction

Structure to hold the vector field and its derivatives. It should rarely be called directly. Also, in essence, it is very close to SciMLBase.ODEFunction.

Fields

• F::Any: Vector field. Function of type out-of-place result = f(x, p) or inplace f(result, x, p). For type stability, the types of x and result should match

• dF::Any: Differential of F with respect to x, signature dF(x,p,dx)

• dFad::Any: Adjoint of the Differential of F with respect to x, signature dFad(x,p,dx)

• J::Any: Jacobian of F at (x, p). It can assume three forms. 1. Either J is a function and J(x, p) returns a ::AbstractMatrix. In this case, the default arguments of contparams::ContinuationPar will make continuation work. 2. Or J is a function and J(x, p) returns a function taking one argument dx and returning dr of the same type as dx. In our notation, dr = J * dx. In this case, the default parameters of contparams::ContinuationPar will not work and you have to use a Matrix Free linear solver, for example GMRESIterativeSolvers, 3. Or J is a function and J(x, p) returns a variable j which can assume any type. Then, you must implement a linear solver ls as a composite type, subtype of AbstractLinearSolver which is called like ls(j, rhs) and which returns the solution of the jacobian linear system. See for example examples/SH2d-fronts-cuda.jl. This linear solver is passed to NewtonPar(linsolver = ls) which itself passed to ContinuationPar. Similarly, you have to implement an eigensolver eig as a composite type, subtype of AbstractEigenSolver.

• Jᵗ::Any: jacobian adjoint, it should be implemented in an efficient manner. For matrix-free methods, transpose is not readily available and the user must provide a dedicated method. In the case of sparse based jacobian, Jᵗ should not be passed as it is computed internally more efficiently, i.e. it avoids recomputing the jacobian as it would be if you pass Jᵗ = (x, p) -> transpose(dF(x, p)).

• d2F::Any: Second Differential of F with respect to x, signature d2F(x,p,dx1,dx2)

• d3F::Any: Third Differential of F with respect to x, signature d3F(x,p,dx1,dx2,dx3)

• d2Fc::Any: [internal] Second Differential of F with respect to x which accept complex vectors dxi

• d3Fc::Any: [internal] Third Differential of F with respect to x which accept complex vectors dxi

• isSymmetric::Any: Whether the jacobian is auto-adjoint.

• δ::Any: used internally to compute derivatives (with finite differences), for example for normal form computation and codim 2 continuation.

• inplace::Bool: optionally sets whether the function is inplace or not

Structure to hold the bifurcation problem.

Fields

• VF::Any: Vector field, typically a BifFunction

• u0::Any: Initial guess

• params::Any: parameters

• lens::Lens: Typically a Setfield.Lens. It specifies which parameter axis among params is used for continuation. For example, if par = (α = 1.0, β = 1), we can perform continuation w.r.t. α by using lens = (@lens _.α). If you have an array par = [ 1.0, 2.0] and want to perform continuation w.r.t. the first variable, you can use lens = (@lens _[1]). For more information, we refer to SetField.jl.

• plotSolution::Any: user function to plot solutions during continuation. Signature: plot_solution(x, p; kwargs...) for Plot.jl and plot_solution(ax, x, p; kwargs...) for the Makie package(s).

• recordFromSolution::Any: record_from_solution = (x, p) -> norm(x) function used record a few indicators about the solution. It could be norm or (x, p) -> x[1]. This is also useful when saving several huge vectors is not possible for memory reasons (for example on GPU). This function can return pretty much everything but you should keep it small. For example, you can do (x, p) -> (x1 = x[1], x2 = x[2], nrm = norm(x)) or simply (x, p) -> (sum(x), 1). This will be stored in contres.branch where contres::ContResult is the continuation curve of the bifurcation problem. Finally, the first component is used for plotting in the continuation curve.

• save_solution::Any: function to save the full solution on the branch. Some problem are mutable (like periodic orbit functional with adaptive mesh) and this function allows to save the state of the problem along with the solution itself. Signature save_solution(x, p)

Methods

• re_make(pb; kwargs...) modify a bifurcation problem
• getu0(pb) calls pb.u0
• getparams(pb) calls pb.params
• getlens(pb) calls pb.lens
• getparam(pb) calls get(pb.params, pb.lens)
• setparam(pb, p0) calls _set_param(pb.params, pb.lens, p0)
• record_from_solution(pb) calls pb.recordFromSolution
• plot_solution(pb) calls pb.plotSolution
• is_symmetric(pb) calls is_symmetric(pb.prob)

Constructors

• BifurcationProblem(F, u0, params, lens; J, Jᵗ, d2F, d3F, kwargs...) and kwargs are the fields above. You can pass your own jacobian with J (see BifFunction for description of the jacobian function) and jacobian adjoint with Jᵗ. For example, this can be used to provide finite differences based jacobian using BifurcationKit.finiteDifferences.

struct BilinearMap{Tm}

This structure wraps a bilinear map to allow evaluation on Complex arguments. This is especially useful when these maps are produced by ForwardDiff.jl.

mutable struct BorderedArray{vectype1, vectype2}

This defines an array (although not <: AbstractArray) to hold two arrays or an array and a scalar. This is useful when one wants to add constraints (phase, ...) to a functional for example. It is used throughout the package for the Pseudo Arc Length Continuation, for the continuation of Fold / Hopf points, for periodic orbits... It is also used to define periodic orbits as (orbit, period). As such, it is a convenient alternative to cat, vcat and friends. We chose not to make it a subtype of AbstractArray as we wish to apply the current package to general "arrays", see Requested methods for Custom State. Finally, it proves useful for the GPU where the operation x[end] can be slow.

Handling eigen elements, their computation is triggered by the argument detect_bifurcation (see below)

• nev = 3 number of eigenvalues to be computed. It is automatically increased to have at least nev unstable eigenvalues. To be set for proper bifurcation detection. See Detection of bifurcation points of Equilibria for more informations.
• save_eig_every_step = 1 record eigen vectors every specified steps. Important for memory limited resource, e.g. GPU.
• save_eigenvectors = true Important for memory limited resource, e.g. GPU.

Handling bifurcation detection

• tol_stability = 1e-10 lower bound on the real part of the eigenvalues to test for stability of equilibria and periodic orbits
• detect_fold = true detect Fold bifurcations? It is a useful option although the detection of Fold is cheap. Indeed, it may happen that there is a lot of Fold points and this can saturate the memory in memory limited devices (e.g. on GPU)
• detect_bifurcation::Int ∈ {0, 1, 2, 3} If set to 0, nothing is done. If set to 1, the eigen-elements are computed. If set to 2, the bifurcations points are detected during the continuation run, but not located precisely. If set to 3, a bisection algorithm is used to locate the bifurcations points (slower). The possibility to switch off detection is a useful option. Indeed, it may happen that there are a lot of bifurcation points and this can saturate the memory of memory limited devices (e.g. on GPU)

Handling event detection

• detect_event::Int ∈ {0, 1, 2} If set to 0, nothing is done. If set to 1, the event locations are sought during the continuation run, but not located precisely. If set to 2, a bisection algorithm is used to locate the event (slower).
• tol_param_bisection_event = 1e-16 tolerance on parameter to locate event

For example, to detect crossing 1.0 and -2.0, you can pass (iter, state) -> (getp(state)+2, getx(state)[1]-1)),. Note that the type T should match the one of the parameter specified by the ::Lens in continuation.

• computeEigenElements::Bool: whether the event requires to compute eigen elements

• labels::Any: Labels used to display information. For example labels[1] is used to qualify an event of the type (0, 1.3213, 3.434). You can use labels = ("hopf",) or labels = ("hopf", "fold"). You must have labels::Union{Nothing, NTuple{N, String}}.

• useFactorization::Bool: Whether to catch a factorization for multiple solves. Some operators may not support LU (like ApproxFun.jl) or QR factorization so it is best to let the user decides. Some matrices do not have factorize like StaticArrays.MMatrix. Default: true

pb = DeflatedProblem(prob, M::DeflationOperator, jactype)

Create a DeflatedProblem.

This creates a deflated functional (problem) $M(u) \cdot F(u) = 0$ where M is a DeflationOperator which encodes the penalization term. prob is an AbstractBifurcationProblem which encodes the functional. It is not meant not be used directly albeit by advanced users.

Return the deflated function M(u) * F(u) where M(u) ∈ R

Return the jacobian of the deflated function M(u) * F(u) where M(u) ∈ R

struct DeflatedProblemCustomLS{T} <: BifurcationKit.AbstractLinearSolverForDeflation

Custom linear solver for deflated problem, very close to the Sherman-Morrison formula.

Implement the custom linear solver for the deflated problem.

struct DeflationOperator{Tp<:Real, Tdot, T<:Real, vectype} <: BifurcationKit.AbstractDeflationFactor

Structure for defining a custom distance.

This operator allows to handle the following situation. Assume you want to solve F(x)=0 with a Newton algorithm but you want to avoid the process to return some already known solutions $roots_i$. The deflation operator penalizes these roots. You can create a DeflationOperator to define a scalar function M(u) used to find, with Newton iterations, the zeros of the following function $F(u) \cdot Π_i(\|u - root_i\|^{-2p} + \alpha) := F(u) \cdot M(u)$ where $\|u\|^2 = dot(u, u)$. The fields of the struct DeflationOperator are as follows:

• power::Real: power p. You can use an Int for example

• dot::Any: function, this function has to be bilinear and symmetric for the linear solver to work well

• α::Real: shift

• roots::Vector: roots

• tmp::Any

• autodiff::Bool

• δ::Real

Given defOp::DeflationOperator, one can access its roots via defOp[n] as a shortcut for defOp.roots[n]. Note that you can also use defOp[end].

Also, one can add (resp. remove) a new root by using push!(defOp, newroot) (resp. pop!(defOp)). Finally length(defOp) is a shortcut for length(defOp.roots)

Constructors

• DeflationOperator(p::Real, α::Real, roots::Vector{vectype}; autodiff = false)
• DeflationOperator(p::Real, dt, α::Real, roots::Vector{vectype}; autodiff = false)
• DeflationOperator(p::Real, α::Real, roots::Vector{vectype}, v::vectype; autodiff = false)

The option autodiff triggers the use of automatic differentiation for the computation of the gradient of the scalar function M. This works only on AbstractVector for now.

Custom distance

You are asked to pass a scalar product like dot to build a DeflationOperator. However, in some cases, you may want to pass a custom distance dist(u, v). You can do this using

`DeflationOperator(p, CustomDist(dist), α, roots)`

Note that passing CustomDist(dist, true) will trigger the use of automatic differentiation for the gradient of M.

Linear solvers

When used with newton, you have access to the following linear solvers

• custom solver DeflatedProblemCustomLS() which requires solving two linear systems J⋅x = rhs.
• For other linear solvers <: AbstractLinearSolver, a matrix free method is used for the deflated functional.
• if passed Val(:autodiff), then ForwardDiff.jl is used to compute the jacobian Matrix of the deflated problem
• if passed Val(:fullIterative), then a full matrix free method is used for the deflated problem.

struct DiscreteEvent{Tcb, Tl} <: BifurcationKit.AbstractDiscreteEvent

Structure to pass a DiscreteEvent function to the continuation algorithm. A discrete call back returns a discrete value and we seek when it changes.

• nb::Int64: number of events, ie the length of the result returned by the callback function

• condition::Any: = (iter, state) -> NTuple{nb, Int64} callback function which at each continuation state, returns a tuple. For example, to detect a value change.

• computeEigenElements::Bool: whether the event requires to compute eigen elements

• labels::Any: Labels used to display information. For example labels[1] is used to qualify an event occurring in the first component. You can use labels = ("hopf",) or labels = ("hopf", "fold"). You must have labels::Union{Nothing, NTuple{N, String}}.

struct DotTheta{Tdot, Ta}

• dot::Any: dot product used in pseudo-arclength constraint

• apply!::Any: Linear operator associated with dot product, i.e. dot(x, y) = <x, Ay>, where <,> is the standard dot product on R^N. You must provide an inplace function which evaluates A. For example x -> rmul!(x, 1/length(x)).

This parametric type allows to define a new dot product from the one saved in dt::dot. More precisely:

dt(u1, u2, p1::T, p2::T, theta::T) where {T <: Real}

computes, the weighted dot product $\langle (u_1,p_1), (u_2,p_2)\rangle_\theta = \theta \Re \langle u_1,u_2\rangle +(1-\theta)p_1p_2$ where $u_i\in\mathbb R^N$. The $\Re$ factor is put to ensure a real valued result despite possible complex valued arguments.

eigfloquet = BifurcationKit.FloquetColl()

Computation of Floquet coefficients for the orthogonal collocation method. The method is based on the condensation of parameters described in [1] and used in Auto07p with a twist from [2] in which we form the monodromy matrix with a product of Ntst matrices.

This is much faster than FloquetCollGEV but less precise. The best version uses a Periodic Schur decomposition instead of the product of Ntst matrices. This is provided in the package PeriodicSchurBifurcationKit.jl.

floquet = FloquetQaD(eigsolver::AbstractEigenSolver)

This composite type implements the computation of the eigenvalues of the monodromy matrix in the case of periodic orbits problems (based on the Shooting method or Finite Differences (Trapeze method)), also called the Floquet multipliers. The method, dubbed Quick and Dirty (QaD), is not numerically very precise for large / small Floquet exponents when the number of time sections is large because of many matrix products. It allows, nevertheless, to detect bifurcations. The arguments are as follows:

• eigsolver::AbstractEigenSolver solver used to compute the eigenvalues.

If eigsolver == DefaultEig(), then the monodromy matrix is formed and its eigenvalues are computed. Otherwise, a Matrix-Free version of the monodromy is used.

mutable struct FloquetWrapper{Tpb, Tjacpb, Torbitguess, Tp}

Define a structure to interface the jacobian of the periodic orbits functional with the Floquet computation methods. If we use the same code as for newton (see below) but in continuation, it is difficult to tell to the eigensolver that it should use the monodromy matrix instead of the jacobian.

pb = PeriodicOrbitOCollProblem(kwargs...)

This composite type implements an orthogonal collocation (at Gauss points) method of piecewise polynomials to locate periodic orbits. More details (maths, notations, linear systems) can be found here.

Arguments

• prob a bifurcation problem
• ϕ::AbstractVector used to set a section for the phase constraint equation
• xπ::AbstractVector used in the section for the phase constraint equation
• N::Int dimension of the state space
• mesh_cache::MeshCollocationCache cache for collocation. See docs of MeshCollocationCache

• K::Float64 = 500 parameter for mesh adaptation, control new mesh step size. More precisely, we set max(hᵢ) / min(hᵢ) ≤ K if hᵢ denotes the time steps.

Methods

Here are some useful methods you can apply to pb

• length(pb) gives the total number of unknowns
• size(pb) returns the triplet (N, m, Ntst)
• getmesh(pb) returns the mesh 0 = τ0 < ... < τNtst+1 = 1. This is useful because this mesh is born to vary during automatic mesh adaptation
• get_mesh_coll(pb) returns the (static) mesh 0 = σ0 < ... < σm+1 = 1
• get_times(pb) returns the vector of times (length 1 + m * Ntst) at the which the collocation is applied.
• generate_solution(pb, orbit, period) generate a guess from a function t -> orbit(t) which approximates the periodic orbit.
• POSolution(pb, x) return a function interpolating the solution x using a piecewise polynomials function

Orbit guess

You can evaluate the residual of the functional (and other things) by calling pb(orbitguess, p) on an orbit guess orbitguess. Note that orbitguess must be of size 1 + N * (1 + m * Ntst) where N is the number of unknowns in the state space and orbitguess[end] is an estimate of the period $T$ of the limit cycle.

Constructors

• PeriodicOrbitOCollProblem(Ntst::Int, m::Int; kwargs) creates an empty functional with Ntst and m.

Note that you can generate this guess from a function using generate_solution.

Functional

A functional, hereby called G, encodes this problem. The following methods are available

• pb(orbitguess, p) evaluates the functional G on orbitguess

This composite type implements Finite Differences based on a Trapezoidal rule (Order 2 in time) to locate periodic orbits. More details (maths, notations, linear systems) can be found here.

Fields

• prob a bifurcation problem
• M::Int number of time slices
• ϕ used to set a section for the phase constraint equation, of size N*M
• xπ used in the section for the phase constraint equation, of size N*M
• linsolver: = DefaultLS() linear solver for each time slice, i.e. to solve J⋅sol = rhs. This is only needed for the computation of the Floquet multipliers in a full matrix-free setting.
• ongpu::Bool whether the computation takes place on the gpu (Experimental)
• massmatrix a mass matrix. You can pass for example a sparse matrix. Default: identity matrix.
• update_section_every_step updates the section every update_section_every_step step during continuation
• jacobian::Symbol symbol which describes the type of jacobian used in Newton iterations (see below).

The scheme is as follows. We first consider a partition of $[0,1]$ given by $0<s_0<\cdots<s_m=1$ and one looks for T = x[end] such that

$M_a\cdot\left(x_{i} - x_{i-1}\right) - \frac{T\cdot h_i}{2} \left(F(x_{i}) + F(x_{i-1})\right) = 0,\ i=1,\cdots,m-1$

with $u_{0} := u_{m-1}$ and the periodicity condition $u_{m} - u_{1} = 0$ and

where $h_1 = s_i-s_{i-1}$. $M_a$ is a mass matrix. Finally, the phase of the periodic orbit is constrained by using a section (but you could use your own)

$\sum_i\langle x_{i} - x_{\pi,i}, \phi_{i}\rangle=0.$

Constructors

The structure can be created by calling PeriodicOrbitTrapProblem(;kwargs...). For example, you can declare such a problem without vector field by doing

PeriodicOrbitTrapProblem(M = 100)

Orbit guess

You will see below that you can evaluate the residual of the functional (and other things) by calling pb(orbitguess, p) on an orbit guess orbitguess. Note that orbitguess must be a vector of size M * N + 1 where N is the number of unknowns in the state space and orbitguess[M*N+1] is an estimate of the period $T$ of the limit cycle. More precisely, using the above notations, orbitguess must be $orbitguess = [x_{1},x_{2},\cdots,x_{M}, T]$.

Note that you can generate this guess from a function solution using generateSolution.

Functional

A functional, hereby called G, encodes this problem. The following methods are available

• pb(orbitguess, p) evaluates the functional G on orbitguess
• pb(orbitguess, p, du) evaluates the jacobian dG(orbitguess).du functional at orbitguess on du
• pb(Val(:JacFullSparse), orbitguess, p) return the sparse matrix of the jacobian dG(orbitguess) at orbitguess without the constraints. It is called A_γ in the docs.
• pb(Val(:JacFullSparseInplace), J, orbitguess, p). Same as pb(Val(:JacFullSparse), orbitguess, p) but overwrites J inplace. Note that the sparsity pattern must be the same independently of the values of the parameters or of orbitguess. In this case, this is significantly faster than pb(Val(:JacFullSparse), orbitguess, p).
• pb(Val(:JacCyclicSparse), orbitguess, p) return the sparse cyclic matrix Jc (see the docs) of the jacobian dG(orbitguess) at orbitguess
• pb(Val(:BlockDiagSparse), orbitguess, p) return the diagonal of the sparse matrix of the jacobian dG(orbitguess) at orbitguess. This allows to design Jacobi preconditioner. Use blockdiag.

Jacobian

Specify the choice of the jacobian (and linear algorithm), jacobian must belong to [:FullLU, :FullSparseInplace, :Dense, :DenseAD, :BorderedLU, :BorderedSparseInplace, :FullMatrixFree, :BorderedMatrixFree, :FullMatrixFreeAD]. This is used to select a way of inverting the jacobian dG of the functional G.

• For jacobian = :FullLU, we use the default linear solver based on a sparse matrix representation of dG. This matrix is assembled at each newton iteration. This is the default algorithm.
• For jacobian = :FullSparseInplace, this is the same as for :FullLU but the sparse matrix dG is updated inplace. This method allocates much less. In some cases, this is significantly faster than using :FullLU. Note that this method can only be used if the sparsity pattern of the jacobian is always the same.
• For jacobian = :Dense, same as above but the matrix dG is dense. It is also updated inplace. This option is useful to study ODE of small dimension.
• For jacobian = :DenseAD, evaluate the jacobian using ForwardDiff
• For jacobian = :BorderedLU, we take advantage of the bordered shape of the linear solver and use a LU decomposition to invert dG using a bordered linear solver.
• For jacobian = :BorderedSparseInplace, this is the same as for :BorderedLU but the cyclic matrix dG is updated inplace. This method allocates much less. In some cases, this is significantly faster than using :BorderedLU. Note that this method can only be used if the sparsity pattern of the jacobian is always the same.
• For jacobian = :FullMatrixFree, a matrix free linear solver is used for dG: note that a preconditioner is very likely required here because of the cyclic shape of dG which affects negatively the convergence properties of GMRES.
• For jacobian = :BorderedMatrixFree, a matrix free linear solver is used but for Jc only (see docs): it means that options.linsolver is used to invert Jc. These two Matrix-Free options thus expose different part of the jacobian dG in order to use specific preconditioners. For example, an ILU preconditioner on Jc could remove the constraints in dG and lead to poor convergence. Of course, for these last two methods, a preconditioner is likely to be required.
• For jacobian = :FullMatrixFreeAD, the evaluation map of the differential is derived using automatic differentiation. Thus, unlike the previous two cases, the user does not need to pass a Matrix-Free differential.

This method returns the jacobian of the functional G encoded in PeriodicOrbitTrapProblem using a Sparse representation.

This method returns the jacobian of the functional G encoded in PeriodicOrbitTrapProblem using an inplace update. In case where the passed matrix J0 is a sparse one, it updates J0 inplace assuming that the sparsity pattern of J0 and dG(orbitguess0) are the same.

pb = PoincareShootingProblem(flow::Flow, M, sections; δ = 1e-8, interp_points = 50, parallel = false)

This composite type implements the Poincaré Shooting method to locate periodic orbits by relying on Poincaré return maps. More details (maths, notations, linear systems) can be found here. The arguments are as follows

• flow::Flow: implements the flow of the Cauchy problem though the structure Flow.
• M: the number of Poincaré sections. If M == 1, then the simple shooting is implemented and the multiple one otherwise.
• sections: function or callable struct which implements a Poincaré section condition. The evaluation sections(x) must return a scalar number when M == 1. Otherwise, one must implement a function section(out, x) which populates out with the M sections. See SectionPS for type of section defined as a hyperplane.
• δ = 1e-8 used to compute the jacobian of the functional by finite differences. If set to 0, an analytical expression of the jacobian is used instead.
• interp_points = 50 number of interpolation point used to define the callback (to compute the hitting of the hyperplane section)
• parallel = false whether the shooting are computed in parallel (threading). Only available through the use of Flows defined by EnsembleProblem.
• par parameters of the model
• lens parameter axis
• update_section_every_step updates the section every update_section_every_step step during continuation
• jacobian::Symbol symbol which describes the type of jacobian used in Newton iterations (see below).

Jacobian

• jacobian Specify the choice of the linear algorithm, which must belong to [AutoDiffMF(), MatrixFree(), AutodiffDense(), AutoDiffDenseAnalytical(), FiniteDifferences(), FiniteDifferencesMF()]. This is used to select a way of inverting the jacobian dG
  • For MatrixFree(), matrix free jacobian, the jacobian is specified by the user in prob. This is to be used with an iterative solver (e.g. GMRES) to solve the linear system
  • For AutoDiffMF(), we use Automatic Differentiation (AD) to compute the (matrix-free) derivative of x -> prob(x, p) using a directional derivative. This is to be used with an iterative solver (e.g. GMRES) to solve the linear system
  • For AutodiffDense(). Same as for AutoDiffMF but the jacobian is formed as a dense Matrix. You can use a direct solver or an iterative one.
  • For FiniteDifferences(), same as for AutoDiffDense but we use Finite Differences to compute the jacobian of x -> prob(x, p) using the δ = 1e-8 which can be passed as an argument.
  • For AutoDiffDenseAnalytical(). Same as for AutoDiffDense but the jacobian is formed using a mix of AD and analytical formula.
  • For FiniteDifferencesMF(), use Finite Differences to compute the matrix-free jacobian of x -> prob(x, p) using the δ = 1e-8 which can be passed as an argument.

Simplified constructors

• The first important constructor is the following which is used for branching to periodic orbits from Hopf bifurcation points pb = PoincareShootingProblem(M::Int, prob::Union{ODEProblem, EnsembleProblem}, alg; kwargs...)

• A convenient way is to create a functional is

pb = PoincareShootingProblem(prob::ODEProblem, alg, section; kwargs...)

for simple shooting or

pb = PoincareShootingProblem(prob::Union{ODEProblem, EnsembleProblem}, alg, M::Int, section; kwargs...)

for multiple shooting . Here prob is an Union{ODEProblem, EnsembleProblem} which is used to create a flow using the ODE solver alg (for example Tsit5()). Finally, the arguments kwargs are passed to the ODE solver defining the flow. We refer to DifferentialEquations.jl for more information.

• Another convenient call is

pb = PoincareShootingProblem(prob::Union{ODEProblem, EnsembleProblem}, alg, normals::AbstractVector, centers::AbstractVector; δ = 1e-8, kwargs...)

where normals (resp. centers) is a list of normals (resp. centers) which defines a list of hyperplanes $\Sigma_i$. These hyperplanes are used to define partial Poincaré return maps.

Computing the functionals

A functional, hereby called G encodes this shooting problem. You can then call pb(orbitguess, par) to apply the functional to a guess. Note that orbitguess::AbstractVector must be of size M * N where N is the number of unknowns in the state space and M is the number of Poincaré maps. Another accepted guess is such that guess[i] is the state of the orbit on the ith section. This last form allows for non-vector state space which can be convenient for 2d problems for example.

Note that you can generate this guess from a function solution using generate_solution.

• pb(orbitguess, par) evaluates the functional G on orbitguess
• pb(orbitguess, par, du) evaluates the jacobian dG(orbitguess).du functional at orbitguess on du
• pb(Val(:JacobianMatrixInplace), J, x, par)` compute the jacobian of the functional analytically. This is based on ForwardDiff.jl. Useful mainly for ODEs.
• pb(Val(:JacobianMatrix), x, par) same as above but out-of-place.

Construct a Poincaré return map Π to an hyperplane Σ from a AbstractPeriodicOrbitProblem. If the state space is of size Nₓ x N𝕪, then we can evaluate the map as Π(xₛ, par) where xₛ ∈ Σ is of size Nₓ x N𝕪.

SectionPS(normals::Vector{Tv}, centers::Vector{Tv})

struct SectionSS{Tn, Tc} <: BifurcationKit.AbstractSection

This composite type (named for Section Standard Shooting) encodes a type of section implemented by a single hyperplane. It can be used in conjunction with ShootingProblem. The hyperplane is defined by a point center and a normal.

• normal::Any: Normal to define hyperplane

• center::Any: Representative point on hyperplane

struct SetOfEvents{Tc<:Tuple, Td<:Tuple} <: BifurcationKit.AbstractEvent

Multiple events can be chained together to form a SetOfEvents. A SetOfEvents is constructed by passing to the constructor ContinuousEvent, DiscreteEvent or other SetOfEvents instances:

SetOfEvents(cb1, cb2, cb3)

Example

 BifurcationKit.SetOfEvents(BK.FoldDetectCB, BK.BifDetectCB)

You can pass as many events as you like.

• eventC::Tuple: Continuous event

• eventD::Tuple: Discrete event

pb = ShootingProblem(flow::Flow, ds, section; parallel = false)

Create a problem to implement the Simple / Parallel Multiple Standard Shooting method to locate periodic orbits. More details (maths, notations, linear systems) can be found here. The arguments are as follows

• flow::Flow: implements the flow of the Cauchy problem though the structure Flow.
• ds: vector of time differences for each shooting. Its length is written M. If M == 1, then the simple shooting is implemented and the multiple one otherwise.
• section: implements a phase condition. The evaluation section(x, T) must return a scalar number where x is a guess for one point on the periodic orbit and T is the period of the guess. Also, the method section(x, T, dx, dT) must be available and which returns the differential of section. The type of x depends on what is passed to the newton solver. See SectionSS for a type of section defined as a hyperplane.
• parallel whether the shooting is computed in parallel (threading). Available through the use of Flows defined by EnsembleProblem (this is automatically set up for you).
• par parameters of the model
• lens parameter axis
• update_section_every_step updates the section every update_section_every_step step during continuation
• jacobian::Symbol symbol which describes the type of jacobian used in Newton iterations (see below).

A functional, hereby called G, encodes the shooting problem. For example, the following methods are available:

• pb(orbitguess, par) evaluates the functional G on orbitguess
• pb(orbitguess, par, du) evaluates the jacobian dG(orbitguess)⋅du functional at orbitguess on du.
• pb(Val(:JacobianMatrixInplace), J, x, par)` compute the jacobian of the functional analytically. This is based on ForwardDiff.jl. Useful mainly for ODEs.
• pb(Val(:JacobianMatrix), x, par) same as above but out-of-place.

You can then call pb(orbitguess, par) to apply the functional to a guess. Note that orbitguess::AbstractVector must be of size M * N + 1 where N is the number of unknowns of the state space and orbitguess[M * N + 1] is an estimate of the period T of the limit cycle. This form of guess is convenient for the use of the linear solvers in IterativeSolvers.jl (for example) which only accept AbstractVectors. Another accepted guess is of the form BorderedArray(guess, T) where guess[i] is the state of the orbit at the ith time slice. This last form allows for non-vector state space which can be convenient for 2d problems for example, use GMRESKrylovKit for the linear solver in this case.

Note that you can generate this guess from a function solution using generate_solution.

Jacobian

• jacobian Specify the choice of the linear algorithm, which must belong to [AutoDiffMF(), MatrixFree(), AutodiffDense(), AutoDiffDenseAnalytical(), FiniteDifferences(), FiniteDifferencesMF()]. This is used to select a way of inverting the jacobian dG
  • For MatrixFree(), matrix free jacobian, the jacobian is specified by the user in prob. This is to be used with an iterative solver (e.g. GMRES) to solve the linear system
  • For AutoDiffMF(), we use Automatic Differentiation (AD) to compute the (matrix-free) derivative of x -> prob(x, p) using a directional derivative. This is to be used with an iterative solver (e.g. GMRES) to solve the linear system
  • For AutodiffDense(). Same as for AutoDiffMF but the jacobian is formed as a dense Matrix. You can use a direct solver or an iterative one.
  • For FiniteDifferences(), same as for AutoDiffDense but we use Finite Differences to compute the jacobian of x -> prob(x, p) using the δ = 1e-8 which can be passed as an argument.
  • For AutoDiffDenseAnalytical(). Same as for AutoDiffDense but the jacobian is formed using a mix of AD and analytical formula.
  • For FiniteDifferencesMF(), use Finite Differences to compute the matrix-free jacobian of x -> prob(x, p) using the δ = 1e-8 which can be passed as an argument.

Simplified constructors

• The first important constructor is the following which is used for branching to periodic orbits from Hopf bifurcation points:

pb = ShootingProblem(M::Int, prob::Union{ODEProblem, EnsembleProblem}, alg; kwargs...)

• A convenient way to build the functional is to use:

pb = ShootingProblem(prob::Union{ODEProblem, EnsembleProblem}, alg, centers::AbstractVector; kwargs...)

where prob is an ODEProblem (resp. EnsembleProblem) which is used to create a flow using the ODE solver alg (for example Tsit5()). centers is list of M points close to the periodic orbit, they will be used to build a constraint for the phase. parallel = false is an option to use Parallel simulations (Threading) to simulate the multiple trajectories in the case of multiple shooting. This is efficient when the trajectories are relatively long to compute. Finally, the arguments kwargs are passed to the ODE solver defining the flow. Look at DifferentialEquations.jl for more information. Note that, in this case, the derivative of the flow is computed internally using Finite Differences.

• Another way to create a Shooting problem with more options is the following where in particular, one can provide its own scalar constraint section(x)::Number for the phase:

pb = ShootingProblem(prob::Union{ODEProblem, EnsembleProblem}, alg, M::Int, section; parallel = false, kwargs...)

or

pb = ShootingProblem(prob::Union{ODEProblem, EnsembleProblem}, alg, ds, section; parallel = false, kwargs...)

• The next way is an elaboration of the previous one

pb = ShootingProblem(prob1::Union{ODEProblem, EnsembleProblem}, alg1, prob2::Union{ODEProblem, EnsembleProblem}, alg2, M::Int, section; parallel = false, kwargs...)

or

pb = ShootingProblem(prob1::Union{ODEProblem, EnsembleProblem}, alg1, prob2::Union{ODEProblem, EnsembleProblem}, alg2, ds, section; parallel = false, kwargs...)

where we supply now two ODEProblems. The first one prob1, is used to define the flow associated to F while the second one is a problem associated to the derivative of the flow. Hence, prob2 must implement the following vector field $\tilde F(x,y,p) = (F(x,p), dF(x,p)\cdot y)$.

This struct allows to have a unified interface with Shooting methods in term of plotting.

struct SpecialPoint{T, Tp, Tv, Tvτ} <: BifurcationKit.AbstractBifurcationPoint

Structure to record special points on a curve. There are two types of special points that are recorded in this structure: bifurcation points and events (see https://bifurcationkit.github.io/BifurcationKitDocs.jl/dev/EventCallback/).

• type::Symbol: Description of the special points. In case of Events, this field records the user passed named to the event, or the default :userD, :userC. In case of bifurcation points, it can be one of the following:

  - :bp Bifurcation point, simple eigenvalue crossing the imaginary axis
  - :fold Fold point
  - :hopf Hopf point
  - :nd not documented bifurcation point. Detected by multiple eigenvalues crossing. Generally occurs in problems with symmetries or in cases where the continuation step size is too large and merge two different bifurcation points.
  - :cusp Cusp point
  - :gh Generalized Hopf point (also called Bautin point)
  - :bt Bogdanov-Takens point
  - :zh Zero-Hopf point
  - :hh Hopf-Hopf point
  - :ns Neimark-Sacker point
  - :pd Period-doubling point
  - :R1 Strong resonance 1:1 of periodic orbits
  - :R2 Strong resonance 1:2 of periodic orbits

  - :R4 Strong resonance 1:4 of periodic orbits
  - :foldFlip Fold / Flip of periodic orbits
  - :foldNS Fold / Neimark-Sacker of periodic orbits

If status == :guess, the bissection algorithm failed to meet the requirements given in ::ContinuationPar. Same for status == :guessL but the bissection algorithm stopped on the left of the bifurcation point. Default: :guess

• δ::Tuple{Int64, Int64}: δ = (δr, δi) where δr indicates the change in the number of unstable eigenvalues and δi indicates the change in the number of unstable eigenvalues with nonzero imaginary part. abs(δr) is thus an estimate of the dimension of the kernel of the Jacobian at the special (bifurcation) point. Default: (0, 0)

• precision::Any: Precision in the location of the special point Default: -1

• interval::Tuple{T, T} where T: Interval parameter containing the special point Default: (0, 0)

TWProblem(prob, ∂::Tuple, u₀; DAE = 0, jacobian::Symbol = :AutoDiff)

This composite type implements a functional for freezing symmetries in order, for example, to compute travelling waves (TW). Note that you can freeze many symmetries, not just one, by passing many Lie generators. When you call pb(x, par), it computes:

                ┌                   ┐
                │ f(x, par) - s⋅∂⋅x │
                │   <x - u₀, ∂⋅u₀>  │

continuation(
    prob,

    contparams;
    linear_algo,
    bothside,
    kwargs...
)

Compute the continuation curve associated to the functional F which is stored in the bifurcation problem prob. General information is available in Continuation methods: introduction.

Arguments:

• prob::AbstractBifurcationFunction a ::AbstractBifurcationProblem, typically a BifurcationProblem which holds the vector field and its jacobian. We also refer to BifFunction for more details.
• alg continuation algorithm, for example Natural(), PALC(), Multiple(),.... See algos
• contparams::ContinuationPar parameters for continuation. See ContinuationPar

Optional Arguments:

• plot = false whether to plot the solution/branch/spectrum while computing the branch
• bothside = true compute the branches on the two sides of the initial parameter value p0, merge them and return it.
• normC = norm norm used in the nonlinear solves
• filename to save the computed branch during continuation. The identifier .jld2 will be appended to this filename. This requires using JLD2.
• callback_newton callback for newton iterations. See docs of newton. For example, it can be used to change the preconditioners.
• finalise_solution = (z, tau, step, contResult; kwargs...) -> true Function called at the end of each continuation step. Can be used to alter the continuation procedure (stop it by returning false), save personal data, plot... The notations are z = BorderedArray(x, p) where x (resp. p) is the current solution (resp. parameter value), tau::BorderedArray is the tangent at z, step::Int is the index of the current continuation step and contResult is the current branch. For advanced use:
  • the state state::ContState of the continuation iterator is passed in kwargs. This can be used for testing whether this is called from bisection for locating bifurcation points / events: in_bisection(state) for example. This allows to escape some personal code in this case.
  Note that you can have a better control over the continuation procedure by using an iterator, see Iterator Interface.
  • the iterator iter::ContIterable of the continuation is passed in kwargs.
• verbosity::Int = 0 controls the amount of information printed during the continuation process. Must belong to {0,1,2,3}. In case contparams.newton_options.verbose = false, the following is valid (otherwise the newton iterations are shown). Each case prints more information than the previous one:
  • case 0: print nothing
  • case 1: print basic information about the continuation: used predictor, step size and parameter values
  • case 2: print newton iterations number, stability of solution, detected bifurcations / events
  • case 3: print information during bisection to locate bifurcations / events
• linear_algo set the linear solver for the continuation algorithm alg. For example, PALC needs a linear solver for an enlarged problem (size n+1 instead of n) and one thus needs to tune the one passed in contparams.newton_options.linsolver. This is a convenient argument to thus change the alg linear solver and is used mostly internally. The proper way is to pass directly to alg the correct linear solver.

This function computes the set of curves of solutions γ(s) = (x(s), p(s)) to the equation F(x,p) = 0 based on the algorithm of deflated continuation as described in Farrell, Patrick E., Casper H. L. Beentjes, and Ásgeir Birkisson. “The Computation of Disconnected Bifurcation Diagrams.” ArXiv:1603.00809 [Math], March 2, 2016. http://arxiv.org/abs/1603.00809.

Depending on the options in contParams, it can locate the bifurcation points on each branch. Note that you can specify different predictors using alg.

Arguments:

• prob::AbstractBifurcationProblem bifurcation problem

• callback_newton callback for newton iterations. see docs for newton. Can be used to change preconditioners or affect the newton iterations. In the deflation part of the algorithm, when seeking for new branches, the callback is passed the keyword argument fromDeflatedNewton = true to tell the user can it is not in the continuation part (regular newton) of the algorithm,

This argument can be used to remove the factor 1/length(x) for example in problems where the dimension of the state space changes (mesh adaptation, ...),

continuation(
    prob,
    orbitguess,
    alg,
    _contParams;
    linear_algo,
    kwargs...
)

This is the continuation routine for computing a periodic orbit using a (Standard / Poincaré) Shooting method.

Arguments

Similar to continuation except that prob is either a ShootingProblem or a PoincareShootingProblem. By default, it prints the period of the periodic orbit.

Optional argument

• linear_algo::AbstractBorderedLinearSolver
• jacobian Specify the choice of the linear algorithm, which must belong to [AutoDiffMF(), MatrixFree(), AutodiffDense(), AutoDiffDenseAnalytical(), FiniteDifferences(), FiniteDifferencesMF()]. This is used to select a way of inverting the jacobian dG
  • For MatrixFree(), matrix free jacobian, the jacobian is specified by the user in prob. This is to be used with an iterative solver (e.g. GMRES) to solve the linear system
  • For AutoDiffMF(), we use Automatic Differentiation (AD) to compute the (matrix-free) derivative of x -> prob(x, p) using a directional derivative. This is to be used with an iterative solver (e.g. GMRES) to solve the linear system
  • For AutodiffDense(). Same as for AutoDiffMF but the jacobian is formed as a dense Matrix. You can use a direct solver or an iterative one.
  • For FiniteDifferences(), same as for AutoDiffDense but we use Finite Differences to compute the jacobian of x -> prob(x, p) using the δ = 1e-8 which can be passed as an argument.
  • For AutoDiffDenseAnalytical(). Same as for AutoDiffDense but the jacobian is formed using a mix of AD and analytical formula.
  • For FiniteDifferencesMF(), use Finite Differences to compute the matrix-free jacobian of x -> prob(x, p) using the δ = 1e-8 which can be passed as an argument.

This is the continuation method for computing a periodic orbit using an orthogonal collocation method.

Arguments

Similar to continuation except that prob is a PeriodicOrbitOCollProblem. By default, it prints the period of the periodic orbit.

Keywords arguments

• eigsolver specify an eigen solver for the computation of the Floquet exponents, defaults to FloquetQaD

continuation(
    prob,
    orbitguess,
    alg,
    _contParams;
    record_from_solution,
    linear_algo,
    kwargs...
)

This is the continuation routine for computing a periodic orbit using a functional G based on Finite Differences and a Trapezoidal rule.

Arguments

• prob::PeriodicOrbitTrapProblem encodes the functional G
• orbitguess a guess for the periodic orbit where orbitguess[end] is an estimate of the period of the orbit. It could be a vector of size N * M + 1 where M is the number of time slices, N is the dimension of the phase space. This must be compatible with the numbers N, M in prob.
• alg continuation algorithm
• contParams same as for the regular continuation method

Keyword arguments

• linear_algo same as in continuation

Specify the choice of the jacobian (and linear algorithm), jacobian must belong to [:FullLU, :FullSparseInplace, :Dense, :DenseAD, :BorderedLU, :BorderedSparseInplace, :FullMatrixFree, :BorderedMatrixFree, :FullMatrixFreeAD]. This is used to select a way of inverting the jacobian dG of the functional G.

• For jacobian = :FullLU, we use the default linear solver based on a sparse matrix representation of dG. This matrix is assembled at each newton iteration. This is the default algorithm.
• For jacobian = :FullSparseInplace, this is the same as for :FullLU but the sparse matrix dG is updated inplace. This method allocates much less. In some cases, this is significantly faster than using :FullLU. Note that this method can only be used if the sparsity pattern of the jacobian is always the same.
• For jacobian = :Dense, same as above but the matrix dG is dense. It is also updated inplace. This option is useful to study ODE of small dimension.
• For jacobian = :DenseAD, evaluate the jacobian using ForwardDiff
• For jacobian = :BorderedLU, we take advantage of the bordered shape of the linear solver and use a LU decomposition to invert dG using a bordered linear solver.
• For jacobian = :BorderedSparseInplace, this is the same as for :BorderedLU but the cyclic matrix dG is updated inplace. This method allocates much less. In some cases, this is significantly faster than using :BorderedLU. Note that this method can only be used if the sparsity pattern of the jacobian is always the same.
• For jacobian = :FullMatrixFree, a matrix free linear solver is used for dG: note that a preconditioner is very likely required here because of the cyclic shape of dG which affects negatively the convergence properties of GMRES.
• For jacobian = :BorderedMatrixFree, a matrix free linear solver is used but for Jc only (see docs): it means that options.linsolver is used to invert Jc. These two Matrix-Free options thus expose different part of the jacobian dG in order to use specific preconditioners. For example, an ILU preconditioner on Jc could remove the constraints in dG and lead to poor convergence. Of course, for these last two methods, a preconditioner is likely to be required.
• For jacobian = :FullMatrixFreeAD, the evaluation map of the differential is derived using automatic differentiation. Thus, unlike the previous two cases, the user does not need to pass a Matrix-Free differential.

Note that by default, the method prints the period of the periodic orbit as function of the parameter. This can be changed by providing your record_from_solution argument.

newton(prob, orbitguess, options; lens, δ, kwargs...)

Arguments

Similar to newton except that prob is either a ShootingProblem or a PoincareShootingProblem. These two problems have specific options to be tuned, we refer to their link for more information and to the tutorials.

• prob a problem of type <: AbstractShootingProblem encoding the shooting functional G.
• orbitguess a guess for the periodic orbit. See ShootingProblem and See PoincareShootingProblem for information regarding the shape of orbitguess.
• par parameters to be passed to the functional
• options same as for the regular newton method.

Optional argument

• jacobian Specify the choice of the linear algorithm, which must belong to [AutoDiffMF(), MatrixFree(), AutodiffDense(), AutoDiffDenseAnalytical(), FiniteDifferences(), FiniteDifferencesMF()]. This is used to select a way of inverting the jacobian dG
  • For MatrixFree(), matrix free jacobian, the jacobian is specified by the user in prob. This is to be used with an iterative solver (e.g. GMRES) to solve the linear system
  • For AutoDiffMF(), we use Automatic Differentiation (AD) to compute the (matrix-free) derivative of x -> prob(x, p) using a directional derivative. This is to be used with an iterative solver (e.g. GMRES) to solve the linear system

This is the Newton-Krylov Solver for F(x, p0) = 0 with Jacobian w.r.t. x written J(x, p0) and initial guess x0. It is important to set the linear solver options.linsolver properly depending on your problem. This linear solver is used to solve $J(x, p_0)u = -F(x, p_0)$ in the Newton step. You can for example use linsolver = DefaultLS() which is the operator backslash: it works well for Sparse / Dense matrices. See Linear solvers (LS) for more informations.

• kwargs keywords arguments to be passed to the regular Newton-Krylov solver

newton(probPO, orbitguess, defOp, options; kwargs...)

This function is similar to newton(probPO, orbitguess, options, jacobianPO; kwargs...) except that it uses deflation in order to find periodic orbits different from the ones stored in defOp. We refer to the mentioned method for a full description of the arguments. The current method can be used in the vicinity of a Hopf bifurcation to prevent the Newton-Krylov algorithm from converging to the equilibrium point.

newton(probPO, orbitguess, options; kwargs...)

This is the Newton Solver for computing a periodic orbit using orthogonal collocation method. Note that the linear solver has to be apropriately set up in options.

Arguments

Similar to newton except that prob is a PeriodicOrbitOCollProblem.

• prob a problem of type <: PeriodicOrbitOCollProblem encoding the shooting functional G.
• orbitguess a guess for the periodic orbit.
• options same as for the regular newton method.

Optional argument

• jacobian Specify the choice of the linear algorithm, which must belong to (AutoDiffDense(), ). This is used to select a way of inverting the jacobian dG
  • For AutoDiffDense(). The jacobian is formed as a dense Matrix. You can use a direct solver or an iterative one using options. The jacobian is formed inplace.
  • For DenseAnalytical() Same as for AutoDiffDense but the jacobian is formed using a mix of AD and analytical formula.

newton(probPO, orbitguess, options; kwargs...)

This is the Krylov-Newton Solver for computing a periodic orbit using a functional G based on Finite Differences and a Trapezoidal rule.

Arguments:

• prob a problem of type PeriodicOrbitTrapProblem encoding the functional G
• orbitguess a guess for the periodic orbit where orbitguess[end] is an estimate of the period of the orbit. It should be a vector of size N * M + 1 where M is the number of time slices, N is the dimension of the phase space. This must be compatible with the numbers N, M in prob.
• par parameters to be passed to the functional
• options same as for the regular newton method

Specify the choice of the jacobian (and linear algorithm), jacobian must belong to [:FullLU, :FullSparseInplace, :Dense, :DenseAD, :BorderedLU, :BorderedSparseInplace, :FullMatrixFree, :BorderedMatrixFree, :FullMatrixFreeAD]. This is used to select a way of inverting the jacobian dG of the functional G.

• For jacobian = :FullLU, we use the default linear solver based on a sparse matrix representation of dG. This matrix is assembled at each newton iteration. This is the default algorithm.
• For jacobian = :FullSparseInplace, this is the same as for :FullLU but the sparse matrix dG is updated inplace. This method allocates much less. In some cases, this is significantly faster than using :FullLU. Note that this method can only be used if the sparsity pattern of the jacobian is always the same.
• For jacobian = :Dense, same as above but the matrix dG is dense. It is also updated inplace. This option is useful to study ODE of small dimension.
• For jacobian = :DenseAD, evaluate the jacobian using ForwardDiff
• For jacobian = :BorderedLU, we take advantage of the bordered shape of the linear solver and use a LU decomposition to invert dG using a bordered linear solver.
• For jacobian = :BorderedSparseInplace, this is the same as for :BorderedLU but the cyclic matrix dG is updated inplace. This method allocates much less. In some cases, this is significantly faster than using :BorderedLU. Note that this method can only be used if the sparsity pattern of the jacobian is always the same.
• For jacobian = :FullMatrixFree, a matrix free linear solver is used for dG: note that a preconditioner is very likely required here because of the cyclic shape of dG which affects negatively the convergence properties of GMRES.
• For jacobian = :BorderedMatrixFree, a matrix free linear solver is used but for Jc only (see docs): it means that options.linsolver is used to invert Jc. These two Matrix-Free options thus expose different part of the jacobian dG in order to use specific preconditioners. For example, an ILU preconditioner on Jc could remove the constraints in dG and lead to poor convergence. Of course, for these last two methods, a preconditioner is likely to be required.
• For jacobian = :FullMatrixFreeAD, the evaluation map of the differential is derived using automatic differentiation. Thus, unlike the previous two cases, the user does not need to pass a Matrix-Free differential.

This specific Newton-Krylov method first tries to converge to a solution sol0 close the guess x0. It then attempts to converge from the guess x1 while avoiding the previous converged solution close to sol0. This is very handy for branch switching. The method is based on a deflated Newton-Krylov solver.

Arguments

Compared to newton, the only different arguments are

• defOp::DeflationOperator deflation operator
• linsolver linear solver used to invert the Jacobian of the deflated functional.
  • custom solver DeflatedProblemCustomLS() which requires solving two linear systems J⋅x = rhs.
  • For other linear solvers <: AbstractLinearSolver, a matrix free method is used for the deflated functional.
  • if passed Val(:autodiff), then ForwardDiff.jl is used to compute the jacobian Matrix of the deflated problem
  • if passed Val(:fullIterative), then a full matrix free method is used for the deflated problem.

Optional argument

  • For MatrixFree(), matrix free jacobian, the jacobian is specified by the user in prob. This is to be used with an iterative solver (e.g. GMRES) to solve the linear system
  • For AutoDiffMF(), we use Automatic Differentiation (AD) to compute the (matrix-free) derivative of x -> prob(x, p) using a directional derivative. This is to be used with an iterative solver (e.g. GMRES) to solve the linear system
  • For AutodiffDense(). Same as for AutoDiffMF but the jacobian is formed as a dense Matrix. You can use a direct solver or an iterative one.
  • For FiniteDifferences(), same as for AutoDiffDense but we use Finite Differences to compute the jacobian of x -> prob(x, p) using the δ = 1e-8 which can be passed as an argument.
  • For AutoDiffDenseAnalytical(). Same as for AutoDiffDense but the jacobian is formed using a mix of AD and analytical formula.
  • For FiniteDifferencesMF(), use Finite Differences to compute the matrix-free jacobian of x -> prob(x, p) using the δ = 1e-8 which can be passed as an argument.
