compute_action_adjoint(adj_input, arity_form, form=None, c_rep=None, space=None, dform=None)

This computes the action of the adjoint of the derivative of form wrt c_rep on adj_input. In other words, it returns: <(dform/dc_rep)*, adj_input>

• If form has arity 0 => dform/dc_rep is a 1-form and adj_input a float, we can simply use the * operator.

• If form has arity 1 => dform/dc_rep is a 2-form and we can symbolically take its adjoint and then apply the action on adj_input, to finally assemble the result.

The method should implement a routine for recomputing one output of the block in the forward computations. The output to recompute is determined by the idx argument, which corresponds to the index of the output in the outputs list. If the block only has a single output, then idx will always be 0.

Parameters:

• inputs (list) – A list of the saved input values, determined by the dependencies list.

• block_variable (BlockVariable) – The block variable of the output corresponding to index idx.

• idx (int) – The index of the output to compute.

• prepared (object) – Anything returned by the prepare_recompute_component method. Default is None.

Returns:

An object of the same type as block_variable.checkpoint which is determined by OverloadedType._ad_create_checkpoint (often the same as block_variable.saved_output): The new output.

Bases: Block

Annotates supermesh projection.

Suppose we have a source space, \(V_A\), and a target space, \(V_B\). Projecting a source from \(V_A\) to \(V_B\) amounts to solving the linear system

\[M_B * v_B = M_{AB} * v_A,\]

where

• \(M_B\) is the mass matrix on \(V_B\),

• \(M_{AB}\) is the mixed mass matrix for \(V_A\) and \(V_B\),

• \(v_A\) and \(v_B\) are vector representations of the source and target Function s.

This can be broken into two steps:

Step 1. form RHS, multiplying the source with the mixed mass matrix;

Step 2. solve linear system.

evaluate_adj_component(inputs, adj_inputs, block_variable, idx, prepared=None)

Evaluate the adjoint to one output of the block

Recall that the forward propagation can be broken down as:

Step 1. multiply \(w := M_{AB} * v_A\);

Step 2. solve \(M_B * v_B = w\).

For a seed vector \(v_B^{seed}\) from the target space, the adjoint is given by:

Adjoint of step 2. solve \(M_B^T * w = v_B^{seed}\) for w;

Adjoint of step 1. multiply \(v_A^{adj} := M_{AB}^T * w\).
