class sage.rings.complex_mpfr.ComplexField_class(prec=53)

Bases: sage.rings.ring.Field

An approximation to the field of complex numbers using floating point numbers with any specified precision. Answers derived from calculations in this approximation may differ from what they would be if those calculations were performed in the true field of complex numbers. This is due to the rounding errors inherent to finite precision calculations.

EXAMPLES:

sage: C = ComplexField(); C
Complex Field with 53 bits of precision
sage: Q = RationalField()
sage: C(1/3)
0.333333333333333
sage: C(1/3, 2)
0.333333333333333 + 2.00000000000000*I
sage: C(RR.pi())
3.14159265358979
sage: C(RR.log2(), RR.pi())
0.693147180559945 + 3.14159265358979*I

We can also coerce rational numbers and integers into C, but coercing a polynomial will raise an exception:

sage: Q = RationalField()
sage: C(1/3)
0.333333333333333
sage: S = PolynomialRing(Q, 'x')
sage: C(S.gen())
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
TypeError: cannot convert nonconstant polynomial

This illustrates precision:

sage: CC = ComplexField(100); CC

We can load and save complex numbers and the complex field:

sage: loads(z.dumps()) == z
True
sage: loads(CC.dumps()) == CC
True
sage: k = ComplexField(100)
sage: loads(dumps(k)) == k

class sage.rings.complex_mpfr.ComplexNumber

Bases: sage.structure.element.FieldElement

A floating point approximation to a complex number using any specified precision. Answers derived from calculations with such approximations may differ from what they would be if those calculations were performed with true complex numbers. This is due to the rounding errors inherent to finite precision calculations.

agm(right, algorithm='optimal')

Return the Arithmetic-Geometric Mean (AGM) of self and right.

INPUT:

  • right (complex) – another complex number

  • algorithm (string, default “optimal”) – the algorithm to use (see below).

OUTPUT:

(complex) A value of the AGM of self and right. Note that this is a multi-valued function, and the algorithm used affects the value returned, as follows:

  • “pari”: Call the pari:agm function from the pari library.

  • “optimal”: Use the AGM sequence such that at each stage

    \((a,b)\) is replaced by \((a_1,b_1)=((a+b)/2,\pm\sqrt{ab})\) where the sign is chosen so that \(|a_1-b_1|\le|a_1+b_1|\), or equivalently \(\Re(b_1/a_1)\ge 0\). The resulting limit is maximal among all possible values.

  • “principal”: Use the AGM sequence such that at each stage

    \((a,b)\) is replaced by \((a_1,b_1)=((a+b)/2,\pm\sqrt{ab})\) where the sign is chosen so that \(\Re(b_1)\ge 0\) (the so-called principal branch of the square root).

The values \(AGM(a,0)\), \(AGM(0,a)\), and \(AGM(a,-a)\) are all taken to be 0.

EXAMPLES:

sage: a = CC(1,1)
sage: b = CC(2,-1)
sage: a.agm(b)
1.62780548487271 + 0.136827548397369*I

sage: a.agm(b, algorithm="pari")
1.62780548487271 + 0.136827548397369*I

Note that the series definition can only be used for \(|z| < 1\).

EXAMPLES:

First we compute \(\eta(1+i)\):

sage: i = CC.0
sage: z = 1+i; z.eta()
0.742048775836565 + 0.198831370229911*I

We compute eta to low precision directly from the definition:

sage: z = 1 + i; z.eta()
0.742048775836565 + 0.198831370229911*I
sage: pi = CC(pi)        # otherwise we will get a symbolic result.
sage: exp(pi * i * z / 12) * prod([1-exp(2*pi*i*n*z) for n in range(1,10)])
0.742048775836565 + 0.198831370229911*I

The optional argument allows us to omit the fractional part:

sage: z = 1 + i
sage: z.eta(omit_frac=True)
0.998129069925959
sage: prod([1-exp(2*pi*i*n*z) for n in range(1,10)])
0.998129069925958 + 4.59099857829247e-19*I

We illustrate what happens when \(z\) is not in the upper half plane:

sage: z = CC(1)
sage: z.eta()
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
ValueError: value must be in the upper half plane

You can also use functional notation:

EXAMPLES:

sage: i = ComplexField(100).0
sage: z = 2 + 3*i
sage: x = z.imag(); x
3.0000000000000000000000000000
sage: x.parent()
Real Field with 100 bits of precision
sage: z.imag_part()
3.0000000000000000000000000000
is_NaN()

Check if self is not-a-number.

EXAMPLES:

sage: CC(1, 2).is_NaN()
False
sage: CC(NaN).is_NaN()
True
sage: CC(NaN,2).log().is_NaN()
True

sage: CC(oo, 0).is_positive_infinity()

Return True if self is real, i.e. has imaginary part zero.

EXAMPLES:

sage: CC(1.23).is_real()

sage: CC(1+i).is_real()

is_square()

This function always returns true as \(\CC\) is algebraically closed.

EXAMPLES:

sage: a = ComplexNumber(2,1)
sage: a.is_square()
True

\(\CC\) is algebraically closed, hence every element is a square:

sage: b = ComplexNumber(5)
sage: b.is_square()
True
log(base=None)

Complex logarithm of \(z\) with branch chosen as follows: Write \(z = \rho e^{i \theta}\) with \(-\pi < \theta <= pi\). Then \(\mathrm{log}(z) = \mathrm{log}(\rho) + i \theta\).

Warning

Currently the real log is computed using floats, so there is potential precision loss.

EXAMPLES:

sage: a = ComplexNumber(2,1)
sage: a.log()
0.804718956217050 + 0.463647609000806*I
sage: log(a.abs())
0.804718956217050
sage: a.argument()
0.463647609000806
sage: b = ComplexNumber(float(exp(42)),0)
sage: b.log()  # abs tol 1e-12
41.99999999999971
sage: c = ComplexNumber(-1,0)
sage: c.log()
3.14159265358979*I

The option of a base is included for compatibility with other logs:

sage: c = ComplexNumber(-1,0)
sage: c.log(2)
4.53236014182719*I

If either component (real or imaginary) of the complex number is NaN (not a number), log will return the complex NaN:

sage: c = ComplexNumber(NaN,2)
sage: c.log()
NaN + NaN*I
multiplicative_order()

sage: C(-1).multiplicative_order()
2

sage: abs(w)
1.00000000000000
sage: w.multiplicative_order()
Traceback (most recent call last):

NotImplementedError: order of element not known
norm()

Return the norm of this complex number.

If \(c = a + bi\) is a complex number, then the norm of \(c\) is defined as the product of \(c\) and its complex conjugate:

\[\text{norm}(c) = \text{norm}(a + bi) = c \cdot \overline{c} = a^2 + b^2.\]

The norm of a complex number is different from its absolute value. The absolute value of a complex number is defined to be the square root of its norm. A typical use of the complex norm is in the integral domain \(\ZZ[i]\) of Gaussian integers, where the norm of each Gaussian integer \(c = a + bi\) is defined as its complex norm.

EXAMPLES:

This indeed acts as the square function when the imaginary component of self is equal to zero:

sage: a = ComplexNumber(2,1)
sage: a.norm()
5.00000000000000
sage: b = ComplexNumber(4.2,0)
