induced_norms

std.linalg.induced_norms · Level L1

The operator norms of a matrix A : Rⁿ → Rᵐ induced by ℓ₁ and by ℓ∞: ‖A‖₁ = max over columns of Σ|a_ij|, and ‖A‖∞ = max over rows of Σ|a_ij|. They are the least C with ‖Ax‖ ≤ C‖x‖ for every x, so A is a bounded operator; a few vectors x satisfying the bound would not be a certificate.

‖A‖₁ = max_j Σ_i |a_ij|, ‖A‖∞ = max_i Σ_j |a_ij|

Structure

The function as NOVA stores it: one box per input, operation and output, and arrows that carry values. A double border marks another library function this one runs — called once, or by Scan once per element; select it to open that function.

Verification

  • Signature proven by NOVA’s shape solver, for every size.
  • Equal to the reference absolute column and row sums in exact rational arithmetic, on all 40 test cases.
  • All 80 float64 results inside the running error bound; the closest uses 47% of it.
  • Interpreter and NumPy backend return bit-identical results.
  • At float32 too: the 40 test cases rounded to float32, and 40 of them inside the running error bound at u = 2⁻²⁴; the closest uses 93% of it.

The semantic hash of the graph. It changes when the program changes, and never when only its documentation does.

Needs
no capability: a pure function

Through NOVA’s control layer, the symbol launches this function only while the program still matches what it pins: a change to this graph, or to any graph it reaches, needs a migration first.
