=== ABC for convex sets ===

Sage 9.4 has added an abstract base class `ConvexSet_base` (as well as abstract subclasses `ConvexSet_closed`, `ConvexSet_compact`, `ConvexSet_relatively_open`, `ConvexSet_open`) for convex subsets of finite-dimensional vector spaces. The abstract methods and default implementations of methods provide a unifying API to the existing classes `Polyhedron_base`, `ConvexRationalPolyhedralCone`, `LatticePolytope`, and `PolyhedronFace`.

As part of the API, there are new methods for point-set topology such as `is_open`, `relative_interior`, and `closure`. For example, taking the `relative_interior` of a polyhedron constructs an instance of `RelativeInterior`, a simple object that provides a `__contains__` method and all other methods of the `ConvexSet_base` API.

Sage 9.4 Release Tour

current development cycle (2021)

Goals and tickets

Symbolics

Extended interface with SymPy

The SymPy package has been updated to version 1.8.

SageMath has a bidirectional interface with SymPy. Symbolic expressions in Sage provide a _sympy_ method, which converts to SymPy; also, Sage attaches _sage_ methods to various SymPy classes, which provide the opposite conversion.

In Sage 9.4, several conversions have been added. Now there is a bidirectional interface as well for matrices and vectors. #31942

sage: M = matrix([[sin(x), cos(x)], [-cos(x), sin(x)]]); M
[ sin(x)  cos(x)]
[-cos(x)  sin(x)]
sage: sM = M._sympy_(); sM
Matrix([
[ sin(x), cos(x)],
[-cos(x), sin(x)]])
sage: sM.subs(x, pi/4)           # computation in SymPy
Matrix([
[ sqrt(2)/2, sqrt(2)/2],
[-sqrt(2)/2, sqrt(2)/2]])

Work is underway to make SymPy's symbolic linear algebra methods available in Sage via this route.

Sage has added a formal set membership function element_of for use in symbolic expressions; it converts to a SymPy's Contains expression. #24171

Moreover, all sets and algebraic structures (Parents) of SageMath are now accessible to SymPy by way of a wrapper class, which implements the SymPy Set API. #31938

sage: F = Family([2, 3, 5, 7]); F
Family (2, 3, 5, 7)
sage: sF = F._sympy_(); sF
SageSet(Family (2, 3, 5, 7))          # this is how the wrapper prints
sage: sF._sage_() is F
True                                  # bidirectional
sage: bool(sF)
True
sage: len(sF)
4
sage: sF.is_finite_set                # SymPy property
True

Finite or infinite, we can wrap it:

sage: W = WeylGroup(["A",1,1])
sage: sW = W._sympy_(); sW
SageSet(Weyl Group of type ['A', 1, 1] (as a matrix group acting on the root space))
sage: sW.is_finite_set
False
sage: sW.is_iterable
True
sage: sB3 = WeylGroup(["B", 3])._sympy_(); sB3
SageSet(Weyl Group of type ['B', 3] (as a matrix group acting on the ambient space))
sage: len(sB3)
48

Some parents or constructions have a more specific conversion to SymPy #31931.

sage: ZZ3 = cartesian_product([ZZ, ZZ, ZZ])
sage: sZZ3 = ZZ3._sympy_(); sZZ3
ProductSet(Integers, Integers, Integers)
sage: (1, 2, 3) in sZZ3

sage: NN = NonNegativeIntegers()
sage: NN._sympy_()
Naturals0

sage: (RealSet(1, 2).union(RealSet.closed(3, 4)))._sympy_()
Union(Interval.open(1, 2), Interval(3, 4))

Convex geometry

ABC for convex sets

Sage 9.4 has added an abstract base class ConvexSet_base (as well as abstract subclasses ConvexSet_closed, ConvexSet_compact, ConvexSet_relatively_open, ConvexSet_open) for convex subsets of finite-dimensional vector spaces. The abstract methods and default implementations of methods provide a unifying API to the existing classes Polyhedron_base, ConvexRationalPolyhedralCone, LatticePolytope, and PolyhedronFace. #31919, #31959, #31990

As part of the API, there are new methods for point-set topology such as is_open, relative_interior, and closure. For example, taking the relative_interior of a polyhedron constructs an instance of RelativeInterior, a simple object that provides a __contains__ method and all other methods of the ConvexSet_base API. #31916

sage: P = Polyhedron(vertices=[(1,0), (-1,0)])
sage: ri_P = P.relative_interior(); ri_P
Relative interior of
 a 1-dimensional polyhedron in ZZ^2 defined as the convex hull of 2 vertices
sage: (0, 0) in ri_P
True
sage: (1, 0) in ri_P
False
