Physics.Learn.StateSpace

A StateSpace is an affine space where the associated vector space has scalars that are instances of Fractional. If p is an instance of StateSpace, then the associated vectorspace Diff p is intended to represent the space of (time) derivatives of paths in p.

StateSpace is very similar to Conal Elliott's AffineSpace.

class (VectorSpace (Diff p), Fractional (Scalar (Diff p))) => StateSpace p where

An instance of StateSpace is a data type that can serve as the state of some system. Alternatively, a StateSpace is a collection of dependent variables for a differential equation. A StateSpace has an associated vector space for the (time) derivatives of the state. The associated vector space is a linearized version of the StateSpace.

type Time p = Scalar (Diff p)

The scalars of the associated vector space can be thought of as time intervals.

type DifferentialEquation state = state -> Diff state

A differential equation expresses how the dependent variables (state) change with the independent variable (time). A differential equation is specified by giving the (time) derivative of the state as a function of the state. The (time) derivative of a state is an element of the associated vector space.

type InitialValueProblem state = (DifferentialEquation state, state)

An initial value problem is a differential equation along with an initial state.

type EvolutionMethod state

Arguments

 = DifferentialEquation state

differential equation

-> Time state

time interval

-> state

initial state

-> state

evolved state

An evolution method is a way of approximating the state after advancing a finite interval in the independent variable (time) from a given state.

type SolutionMethod state = InitialValueProblem state -> [state]

A (numerical) solution method is a way of converting an initial value problem into a list of states (a solution). The list of states need not be equally spaced in time.

stepSolution :: EvolutionMethod state -> Time state -> SolutionMethod state

Given an evolution method and a time step, return the solution method which applies the evolution method repeatedly with with given time step. The solution method returned will produce an infinite list of states.

eulerMethod :: StateSpace state => EvolutionMethod state

The Euler method is the simplest evolution method. It increments the state by the derivative times the time step.
