ddg.math.projective module

Utility functions for the projective module.

ddg.math.projective.homogenize(vector)[source]

Homogenize a coordinate vector by inserting a 1.

Parameters:
vectornumpy.ndarray of shape (n,)

The vector to be homogenized.

Returns:
numpy.ndarray of shape (n+1,)
ddg.math.projective.dehomogenize(vector, atol=None, rtol=None)[source]

Pick an affine representative for a homogeneous coordinate vector.

Parameters:
vectornumpy.ndarray of shape (n+1,)

The vector to be dehomogenized.

atol, rtolfloat (default=None)

This function uses the global tolerance defaults if atol or rtol are set to None. See ddg.nonexact for details.

Returns:
numpy.ndarray of shape (n,)
ddg.math.projective.in_general_position(points)[source]

Checks whether a list of k+1 points in n-dimensional projective are in general position.

Parameters:
pointslist

List of numpy.ndarray of shape (n+1,)

Returns:
bool

True if the points are in general position, False otherwise.

Raises:
ValueError

If no points are given.

Notes

If k <= n, we test whether their lifts in (n+1)-dimensional space are linearly independent. If k > n, we test whether any (n+1)-subset of them is contained in a hyperplane of n-dimensional projective space.

ddg.math.projective.is_projective_frame(points)[source]

Checks whether a list of n+2 points in n-dimensional projective space form a projective frame.

Parameters:
pointslist

List of numpy.ndarray of shape (n+1,)

Returns:
bool

True if the points are a projective frame, False otherwise.

Raises:
ValueError

If no points are given.

Notes

A list of n+1 fundamental points and one unit point in projective space are called a projective frame if they are in general position.

ddg.math.projective.point_of_intersection(planes, homogeneous_coords=True)[source]

Computes the point of intersection of given hyperplanes (in dual coordinates). If more hyperplanes are given than the dimension of the space, a least square solution is computed.

E.g. in RP^3 it computes the intersection of (at least) three given planes.

Parameters:
planeslist

List of planes given in dual coordinates, i.e. by a vector of the form (a,-b) for a.T * x - b = 0

Returns:
intersectionarray

Intersection of the given planes

ddg.math.projective.affine_transformation(A, b)[source]

Assemble affine transformation.

Given a matrix A and a vector b, assemble the projective transformation

     A | b
F =  --|---
     0 | 1

It corresponds in affine coordinates to the affine transformation x -> Ax + b.

     0 | s

disassemble it into a matrix A/s and a vector b/s.

Parameters:

ValueError

If F does not represent a similarity embedding.

ddg.math.projective.affine_component_transformation(n, before, after=-1)[source]

Transformation transforming between affine pictures.

If an object dehomogenized wth affine component before produces a certain affine picture, the object transformed with F will produce the same picture when dehomogenized with affine component after.

Parameters:
nint

Size of returned matrix

beforeint
afterint (default=-1)
Returns:
Fnumpy.ndarray of shape (n, n)
ddg.math.projective.translation(normal, direction, atol=None, rtol=None)[source]

Projective translation.

Returns the matrix

I + direction @ normal.T

This transformation fixes all vectors v in the hyperplane orthogonal to normal. It can also be thought of as mapping

v -> v + dot(normal, v) * direction
Parameters:
normal, directionnumpy.ndarray of shape (n,)

direction must lie in the hyperplane orthogonal to normal.

atol, rtolfloat (default=None)

This function uses the global tolerance defaults if atol or rtol are set to None. See ddg.nonexact for details.

Returns:
numpy.ndarray of shape (n, n)
Raises:
ValueError
  • If the dimensions of normal and direction do not match.

  • If direction is not orthogonal to normal.
