sparse_pwc_sum

Graph.sparse_pwc_sum(terms)

Create the sum of multiple sparse-matrix-valued piecewise-constant functions.

Parameters

terms (list [SparsePwc ]) – The individual piecewise-constant terms {vj(t)}\{v_j(t)\}

Returns

The piecewise-constant function of time jvj(t)\sum_j v_j(t)

Return type

SparsePwc

Examples

Sum two sparse PWC operators.

>>> from scipy.sparse import coo_matrix
>>> sigma_x = np.array([[0, 1], [1, 0]])
>>> sigma_y = np.array([[0, -1j], [1j, 0]])
>>> sp_x = graph.constant_sparse_pwc_operator(duration=0.1, operator=coo_matrix(sigma_x))
>>> sp_y = graph.constant_sparse_pwc_operator(duration=0.1, operator=coo_matrix(sigma_y))
>>> graph.sparse_pwc_sum([sp_x, sp_y])
