Numerical integration of a complex function with Cubature C package - c

I want to use the Cubature C package to perform a multidimensional integral of a complex function. I tried to do it in the following way for the very simple function f(x,y) = x + y*i over the square [0,1]x[0,1]. The exact result is 0.5 + 0.5i.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
#include <complex.h>
#include "../cubature.h"
int f(unsigned ndim, const double *x, void *fdata, unsigned fdim, double *fval);
int main(void)
{
double xmin[2] = {0,0}, xmax[2] = {1,1}, val, err;
hcubature(1, f, NULL, 2, xmin, xmax, 0, 0, 1e-3, ERROR_PAIRED, &val, &err);
printf("Computed integral = %f+%fi +/- %f\n", creal(val),cimag(val), err);
}
int f(unsigned ndim, const double *x, void *fdata, unsigned fdim, double *fval)
{
fval[0] = x[0]+x[1]*I;
return 0;
}
But what I get is Computed integral = 0.500000+0.000000i +/- 0.000000, that is the imaginary part does not appear. If I put a pure imaginary integrand (e.g. x*i) I always get 0 as result.
What am I doing wrong? Do you know any better way to compute integrals of complex functions in C?

2 issues:
1) Your are declaring double val, but you want it to be double val[2]. Your original val being a double in cimag(val) will always return 0.0. Change to
double xmin[2] = {0,0}, xmax[2] = {1,1}, val[2] /* not val */, err;
hcubature(2 /* not 1 */, f, NULL, 2, xmin, xmax, 0, 0, 1e-3, ERROR_PAIRED, /* & */val, &err);
printf("Computed integral = %f+%fi +/- %f\n", val[0], val[1], err);
2) It does not appear you are calculating f(x,y) = x + y*i correctly in f(). fval[0] is a double and can not hold the complex answer you are trying to assign.
int f(unsigned ndim, const double *x, void *fdata, unsigned fdim, double *fval) {
fval[0] = x[0];
fval[1] = x[1];
return 0;
}
Sorry I do not have "../cubature.h" to test right now.

When you define val, do this:
double *val=(double *) malloc(sizeof(double) * integrand_fdim);
where integrand_fdim is equal to unsigned fdim - first argument of your integrand f.
P.S.: the answer by #chux produces Bus 10 or segfault...

Montecarlo integral optimization

I am using the montecarlo method as implemented in the gsl library. I need to compute many repetitions of this integral changing a parameter in the integrand. So I need to make my subroutine fast. It seems that the most time consuming part is the evaluation of the integrand at the random points. How could I make the evaluation faster in my specific case?
Here is a minimal example:
#include <gsl/gsl_rng.h>
#include <math.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <gsl/gsl_math.h>
#include <gsl/gsl_monte.h>
#include <gsl/gsl_monte_plain.h>
#include <gsl/gsl_monte_vegas.h>
double q=0.0;
double mu=0.001;
double eta=0.1;
double kF=1.0;
double Kcut=10;
long int Nmax=10000000;
int Nwu=1000000;
double w=1;
struct my_f_params { double y;};
double
g (double *k, size_t dim, void *p)
{
double A;
struct my_f_params * fp = (struct my_f_params *)p;
double PQ=q*q+k[1]*k[1]-2*q*k[1]*cos(k[3])+mu;
double QK=k[0]*k[0]+k[1]*k[1]-2*k[0]*k[1]* (cos(k[2])*cos(k[3])+cos(k[4])*sin(k[2])*sin(k[3]))+mu;
double KPQ=q*q+k[0]*k[0]+k[1]*k[1]+2*k[0]*cos(k[2])*(q-k[1]*cos(k[3]))+2*k[1]* (q*cos(k[3])+k[0]*cos(k[4])*sin(k[2])*sin(k[3]));
double denFreq=fp->y-0.5*(k[0]*k[0]+k[1]*k[1]+KPQ);
double vol=k[0]*k[0]*k[1]*k[1]*sin(k[2])*sin(k[3]);
if (sqrt(KPQ) < kF) {
A = vol*denFreq*(1/QK-1/PQ)/(QK*(pow(denFreq,2)+eta*eta));
}
else {
A = 0;
}
return A;
}
int
main (void)
{
double res, err;
double xl[5] = {0, kF, 0, 0, 0};
double xu[5] = {kF, Kcut, M_PI, M_PI, 2*M_PI};
const gsl_rng_type *T;
gsl_rng *r;
gsl_monte_function G;
size_t calls = Nmax;
gsl_rng_env_setup ();
struct my_f_params params;
T = gsl_rng_default;
r = gsl_rng_alloc (T);
params.y=w;
G.f=&g;
G.dim=5;
G.params=&params;
{
gsl_monte_vegas_state *s = gsl_monte_vegas_alloc (5);
gsl_monte_vegas_integrate (&G, xl, xu, 5, Nwu, r, s,&res, &err);
do
{
gsl_monte_vegas_integrate (&G, xl, xu, 5, calls/5, r, s,&res, &err);
}
while (fabs (gsl_monte_vegas_chisq (s) - 1.0) > 0.5);
gsl_monte_vegas_free (s);
}
printf ("%.6f %.6f %.6f\n", w,res,err);
gsl_rng_free (r);
return 0;
}
Expanding on Bob__'s comment, you can use sincos to compute the sin and cos of the same argument (k[2] and k[3]), and define a kF_sqr to be initialised in the main and use that in the g function to avoid the sqrt call. With these optimisations, a quick & dirty test on my machine showed a ~5% speed-up over your code.

Return a variable from a GSL multiroot function

Suppose I have a function that defines a set of N equations and I want to get N unknowns that set those equations to zero. The way I usually do this is to use the GSL multiroot function, for which the return is defined by an integer GLS_SUCCESS that describes whether the function can be computed. This would be an example of such a function, taken from the GSL guide.
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <gsl/gsl_vector.h>
#include <gsl/gsl_multiroots.h>
struct rparams
{
double a;
double b;
};
int
rosenbrock_f (const gsl_vector * x, void *params,
gsl_vector * f)
{
double a = ((struct rparams *) params)->a;
double b = ((struct rparams *) params)->b;
const double x0 = gsl_vector_get (x, 0);
const double x1 = gsl_vector_get (x, 1);
const double y0 = a * (1 - x0);
const double y1 = b * (x1 - x0 * x0);
gsl_vector_set (f, 0, y0);
gsl_vector_set (f, 1, y1);
return GSL_SUCCESS;
}
Suppose that while I am interested in the N variables that set the values to zero, I am also interested in a variable that gets computed inside the function. For example let double c = a + b, and suppose that operation is performed inside the rosenbrock_f function. How can I access c from main? One obvious way is declaring it as a global variable. Is there an alternative?
An alternative would be to have the additional member of the rparams struct which would contain the value you want to store.
You can then modify it's value in each call to rosenbrock_f and you would be able to access it in your main function.

How to write the mexFunction of this c file

The function is cyclic.c.
void cyclic(float a[], float b[], float c[], float alpha, float beta,
float r[], float x[], unsigned long n)
// Solves for a vector x[1..n] the “cyclic” set of linear equations. a,
//b, c, and r are input vectors, all dimensioned as [1..n], while alpha and beta are //the corner
// entries in the matrix.
I am new for the interface between Matlab and C. And I have not use C for several years.
Last night, I finished it and compile. The last thing is to call it.
#include "mex.h"
#include "nrutil.h"

#define NR_END 1
#include <stdio.h>

void nrerror(char error_text[])
/* Numerical Recipes standard error handler */
{fprintf(stderr,"Numerical Recipes run-time error...\n");
fprintf(stderr,"%s\n",error_text);
fprintf(stderr,"...now exiting to system...\n");
exit(1);
}
float *vector(long nl, long nh)
/* allocate a float vector with subscript range v[nl..nh] */
{
float *v;
v=(float *)malloc((size_t) ((nh-nl+1+NR_END)*sizeof(float)));
if (!v) nrerror("allocation failure in vector()");
return v-nl+NR_END;
}
void free_vector(float *v, long nl, long nh)

{

void tridag(float a[], float b[], float c[], float r[], float u[],

{
unsigned long j;
float bet,*gam;
gam=vector(1,n);
if (b[1] == 0.0) nrerror("Error 1 in tridag");
u[1]=r[1]/(bet=b[1]);
for (j=2;j<=n;j++) {
gam[j]=c[j-1]/bet;

free_vector(bb,1,n);
}
void mexFunction(int nlhs, mxArray *plhs[],
int nrhs, const mxArray *prhs[])
{
float *a,*b,*c,*x,*r;
float alpha,beta;
unsigned long n = (unsigned long) mxGetScalar(prhs[6]);
// a=mxGetPr(prhs[0]);
// b=mxGetPr(prhs[1]);
// c=mxGetPr(prhs[2]);
// r=mxGetPr(prhs[5]);
a = (float*) mxGetData(prhs[0]);
b = (float*) mxGetData(prhs[1]);
c = (float*) mxGetData(prhs[2]);
r = (float*) mxGetData(prhs[5]);
// alpha=*(mxGetPr(prhs[3]));
// beta=*(mxGetPr(prhs[4]));
alpha = (float) mxGetScalar(prhs[3]);
beta = (float) mxGetScalar(prhs[4]);
plhs[0]= mxCreateDoubleMatrix(n, 1, mxREAL);
x = mxGetPr(plhs[0]);
mexPrintf("%f ",alpha);
mexPrintf("\n");
mexPrintf("%f ",beta);
mexPrintf("\n");
mexPrintf("%d ",n);
mexPrintf("\n");
cyclic(a,b,c, alpha, beta,r,x,n) ;
mexPrintf("%d ",n);
mexPrintf("\n");
}
Finally I successfully compile itcyclic(a,b,c, alpha, beta,r,x,n) ;. But the answer is not right. I thing this is because r is an imaginary vector. So my question is how should I transform r between C and Matlab?
The C function cyclic expects arrays of floats, but mexFunction is passing a double*. Without changing cyclic.c, you have two options:
Convert the data to single in MATLAB and get a float* with mxGetData.
In mexFunction:
float *a = (float*) mxGetData(prhs[0]);
In MATLAB:
mexFunction(single(a),...)
Convert (copy, not cast!) the data in mexFunction.
In mexFunction, allocate new float arrays, and copy each element from the double input array (mxGetPr(prhs[0])) into the temporary float array.
Call mexFunction with a normal double array in MATLAB.
It's probably easier to do the former.
Under no circumstances should you simply cast the pointer, not that you were planning to do that.
Also, the scalars alpha, beta and n need to be read from prhs as scalars and passed to cyclic as scalars. In mexFunction, use:
float alpha = (float) mxGetScalar(prhs[...]);
float beta = (float) mxGetScalar(prhs[...]);
unsigned long n = (unsigned long) mxGetScalar(prhs[...]);
You've entirely forgotten c and r in mexFunction.

Computing the reciprocal condition number with lapack (i.e. rcond(x))

I wish to do exactly what rcond does in MATLAB/Octave using LAPACK from C.
The MATLAB manual tells me dgecon is used, and that is uses a 1-based norm.
I wrote a simple test program for an extremely simple case; [1,1; 1,0]
For this input matlab and octave gives me 0.25 using rcond and 1/cond(x,1), but in the case using LAPACK, this sample program prints 0.0. For other cases, such as identity, it prints the correct value.
Since MATLAB is supposely actually using this routine with success, what am I doing wrong?
I'm trying to decipher what Octave does, with little success as its wrapped in
#include <stdio.h>
extern void dgecon_(const char *norm, const int *n, const double *a,
const int *lda, const double *anorm, double *rcond, double *work,
int *iwork, int *info, int len_norm);
int main()
{
int i, info, n, lda;
double anorm, rcond;
double w[8] = { 0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0 };
int iw[2] = { 0,0 };
double x[4] = { 1, 1, 1, 0 };
anorm = 2.0; /* maximum column sum, computed manually */
n = 2;
lda = 2;
dgecon_("1", &n, x, &lda, &anorm, &rcond, w, iw, &info, 1);
if (info != 0) fprintf(stderr, "failure with error %d\n", info);
printf("%.5e\n", rcond);
return 0;
}
Compiled with cc testdgecon.c -o testdgecon -llapack; ./testdgecon
I found the answer to me own question.
The matrix is must be LU-decomposed before it is sent to dgecon. This seems very logical since one often wants to solve the system after checking the condition, in which case there is no need to decompose the matrix twice. The same idea goes for the norm which is computed separately.
The following code is all the necessary parts the compute the reciprocal condition number with LAPACK.
#include "stdio.h"
extern int dgecon_(const char *norm, const int *n, double *a, const int *lda, const double *anorm, double *rcond, double *work, int *iwork, int *info, int len);
extern int dgetrf_(const int *m, const int *n, double *a, const int *lda, int *lpiv, int *info);
extern double dlange_(const char *norm, const int *m, const int *n, const double *a, const int *lda, double *work, const int norm_len);
int main()
{
int i, info, n, lda;
double anorm, rcond;
int iw[2];
double w[8];
double x[4] = {7,3,-9,2 };
n = 2;
lda = 2;
/* Computes the norm of x */
anorm = dlange_("1", &n, &n, x, &lda, w, 1);
/* Modifies x in place with a LU decomposition */
dgetrf_(&n, &n, x, &lda, iw, &info);
if (info != 0) fprintf(stderr, "failure with error %d\n", info);
/* Computes the reciprocal norm */
dgecon_("1", &n, x, &lda, &anorm, &rcond, w, iw, &info, 1);
if (info != 0) fprintf(stderr, "failure with error %d\n", info);
printf("%.5e\n", rcond);
return 0;
}

C File Input/Trapezoid Rule Program

Little bit of a 2 parter. First of all im trying to do this in all c. First of all I'll go ahead and post my program
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <math.h>
#include <omp.h>
#include <string.h>
double f(double x);
void Trap(double a, double b, int n, double* integral_p);
int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
double integral=0.0; //Integral Result
double a=6, b=10; //Left and Right Points
int n; //Number of Trapezoids (Higher=more accurate)
int degree;
if (argc != 3) {
printf("Error: Invalid Command Line arguements, format:./trapezoid N filename");
exit(0);
}
n = atoi(argv[2]);
FILE *fp = fopen( argv[1], "r" );
# pragma omp parallel
Trap(a, b, n, &integral);
printf("With n = %d trapezoids....\n", n);
printf("of the integral from %f to %f = %.15e\n",a, b, integral);
return 0;
}
double f(double x) {
double return_val;
return_val = pow(3.0*x,5)+pow(2.5*x,4)+pow(-1.5*x,3)+pow(0*x,2)+pow(1.7*x,1)+4;
return return_val;
}
void Trap(double a, double b, int n, double* integral_p) {
double h, x, my_integral;
double local_a, local_b;
int i, local_n;
int my_rank = omp_get_thread_num();
int thread_count = omp_get_num_threads();
h = (b-a)/n;
local_n = n/thread_count;
local_a = a + my_rank*local_n*h;
local_b = local_a + local_n*h;
my_integral = (f(local_a) + f(local_b))/2.0;
for (i = 1; i <= local_n-1; i++) {
x = local_a + i*h;
my_integral += f(x);
}
my_integral = my_integral*h;
# pragma omp critical
*integral_p += my_integral;
}
As you can see, it calculates trapezoidal rule given an interval.
First of all it DOES work, if you hardcode the values and the function. But I need to read from a file in the format of
5
3.0 2.5 -1.5 0.0 1.7 4.0
6 10
Which means:
It is of degree 5 (no more than 50 ever)
3.0x^5 +2.5x^4 −1.5x^3 +1.7x+4 is the polynomial (we skip ^2 since it's 0)
and the Interval is from 6 to 10
My main concern is the f(x) function which I have hardcoded. I have NO IDEA how to make it take up to 50 besides literally typing out 50 POWS and reading in the values to see what they could be.......Anyone else have any ideas perhaps?
Also what would be the best way to read in the file? fgetc? Im not really sure when it comes to reading in C input (especially since everything i read in is an INT, is there some way to convert them?)
For a large degree polynomial, would something like this work?
double f(double x, double coeff[], int nCoeff)
{
double return_val = 0.0;
int exponent = nCoeff-1;
int i;
for(i=0; i<nCoeff-1; ++i, --exponent)
{
return_val = pow(coeff[i]*x, exponent) + return_val;
}
/* add on the final constant, 4, in our example */
return return_val + coeff[nCoeff-1];
}
In your example, you would call it like:
sampleCall()
{
double coefficients[] = {3.0, 2.5, -1.5, 0, 1.7, 4};
/* This expresses 3x^5 + 2.5x^4 + (-1.5x)^3 + 0x^2 + 1.7x + 4 */
my_integral = f(x, coefficients, 6);
}
By passing an array of coefficients (the exponents are assumed), you don't have to deal with variadic arguments. The hardest part is constructing the array, and that is pretty simple.
It should go without saying, if you put the coefficients array and number-of-coefficients into global variables, then the signature of f(x) doesn't need to change:
double f(double x)
{
// access glbl_coeff and glbl_NumOfCoeffs, instead of parameters
}
For you f() function consider making it variadic (varargs is another name)
http://www.gnu.org/s/libc/manual/html_node/Variadic-Functions.html
This way you could pass the function 1 arg telling it how many "pows" you want, with each susequent argument being a double value. Is this what you are asking for with the f() function part of your question?
