Python implementation of SpOpt package (originally in Matlab): Reimannian Optimization on Symplectic Stiefel Manifold

PySpOpt

A Python solver for Riemannian Optimization on the Symplectic Stiefel manifold. This was originally written in Matlab by [1].

Problems

Solves the following optimization problem,

$$ \min f(X), \quad s.t. \quad X^{\top} J_{2n} X = J_{2p}, $$

where $X$ is a 2n-by-2p matrix, $J_{2n} = \begin{bmatrix} 0 & I_{n} \\ - I_{n} & 0 \end{bmatrix}$, and $\mathbb{I}_{n}$ is the n-by-n identity matrix.

Applications

1. The nearest symplectic matrix problem:

$$ \min \Vert X-A \Vert ^{2}{F}, \quad \text{s.t.} \quad X^{\top} J{2n} X = J_{2p}. $$

2. The extrinsic mean problem:

$$ \min \frac{1}{N} \sum_{i=1}^{i=N} \Vert X - A_{i} \Vert^{2}{\mathrm{F}},\quad \text{s.t.}\quad X^{\top} J{2n} X = J_{2p}. $$

3. Minimization of the Brockett cost function:

$$ \min \mathrm{Tr}(X^{\top} A X - 2 B X^{\top}),\quad \text{s.t.}\quad X^{\top} J_{2n} X = J_{2p}. $$

4. Symplectic eigenvalue problem:

$$ \min \mathrm{Tr}(X^{\top} A X),\quad \text{s.t.}\quad X^{\top} J_{2n} X = J_{2p}. $$

5. Symplectic model order reduction:

$$ \min \Vert M- X X^{\dagger} M \Vert, \quad \text{s.t.} \quad X^{\top} J_{2n} X = J_{2p}, \quad \text{where} \quad X^{\dagger} = J_{2p}^{\top} X^{\top} J_{2n} .$$
