Project description

The SpectralToolbox is a collection of tools useful for spectral approximation methods in one or more dimensions. It include the construction of traditional orthogonal polynomials. Additionally one can construct orthogonal polynomials with respect to a selected measure.

Description

Implementation of Spectral Methods in N dimension.

Available polynomials:

  • Jacobi

  • Hermite Physicists’

  • Hermite Physicists’ Function

  • Hermite Probabilists’

  • Hermite Probabilists’ Function

  • Laguerre Polynomial

  • Laguerre Function

  • Fourier

  • ORTHPOL package (generation of recursion coefficients using [1])

Available quadrature rules (related to selected polynomials):

  • Gauss

  • Gauss-Lobatto

  • Gauss-Radau

Available quadrature rules (without polynomial selection):

  • Kronrod-Patterson on the real line

  • Kronrod-Patterson uniform

  • Clenshaw-Curtis

  • Fejer’s

Requirements

Installation

We reccommend to work in a virtual environment using virtualenv, or on the system python installation. The use of alternative virtual environment systems (such as Anaconda) is not guaranteed to be automatically supported, thus a manual installation is suggested in such case.

Make sure to have an up-to-date version of pip:

$ pip install –upgrade pip

Automatic installation

Run the command:

pipinstall–upgradenumpy pip install –upgrade SpectralToolbox

Manual installation (using pip)

Install the following dependencies separately:

$ pip install <package>

where <package> are the Python dependencies as listed in Requirements and X.X.X is the current revision version.

You should intall the orthpol package. This dependency is required since v. 0.2.0. The installation might require you to tweak some flags for the compiler (with gcc nothing should be needed).

$ pip install –no-binary :all: orthpol

Finally you can install the toolbox by:

$ pip install –no-binary :all: SpectralToolbox

Manual installation (from source files)

Note: This method may apply also to virtual environment systems different from virtualenv.

download and install each dependency manually with the following commands:

$ pip download <package>

$ tar xzf <package>-X.X.X.tar.gz

$ cd <package>-X.X.X

$ python setup.py install

$ cd ..

where <package> are the Python dependencies as listed in Requirements and X.X.X is the current revision version.
