plotting - can the color in MeshStyle be specified by a ColorFunction, such as "SunsetColors" for example. If so, what is the correct syntax?



This is an example given in Help:


Plot3D[Sin[x y], {x, 0, 3}, {y, 0, 3}, MeshStyle -> Gray]

Could this be changed to something like


Plot3D[Sin[x y], {x, 0, 3}, {y, 0, 3}, MeshStyle -> "SunsetColors"]

The above line does not work, but is there a way to modify syntax so that "SunsetColors" can be used?



Answer



Here is the method you posted as an answer yourself, condensed by exploiting repetitious code.


Module[{a, d, t, p, kx, ky, func, cf, plot1, plot2},

 a = 1.42;   d = a Sqrt[3];   t = 2.8;   p = 25;

 func := t Sqrt[3 + 2 Cos[a kx] + 4 Cos[a/2 kx] Cos[d/2 ky]];

 cf[1] = ColorData["SunsetColors", #3] &;
 cf[-1] = ColorData["SunsetColors", 1 - #3] &;

 plot1 = Plot3D[#3 func, {#, -2 Pi / a, 2 Pi / a}, {#2, -2 Pi / a, 2 Pi / a},
    ColorFunction -> cf[#3], BoundaryStyle -> None, Mesh -> None, PlotPoints -> p] &;


 plot2 = ParametricPlot3D[
    Table[{kx, ky, #3 func}, {#2, -2 Pi / a, 2 Pi / a, 1/2}],
    {#, -2 Pi / a, 2 Pi / a}, ColorFunction -> cf[#3], 
    PlotStyle -> Directive[Thickness[0.002]], PlotPoints -> p] &;

 Show[
  plot1[kx, ky, #] & /@ {1, -1},
  plot2[kx, ky, #] & /@ {1, -1},
  plot2[ky, kx, #] & /@ {1, -1},


  PlotRange -> All,
  BoxRatios -> {1, 0.75, 0.75},
  AxesLabel -> 
   Map[Style[#, Large, Bold] &, {Subscript[k, x], Subscript[k, y], Ε[OverVector[k]]}],
  ImageSize -> {800, 800},
  ViewPoint -> {-3, -2, 0}
 ]
]

front end - keyboard shortcut to invoke Insert new matrix

I frequently need to type in some matrices, and the menu command Insert > Table/Matrix > New... allows matrices with lines drawn between columns and rows, which is very helpful. I would like to make a keyboard shortcut for it, but cannot find the relevant frontend token command (4209405) for it. Since the FullForm[] and InputForm[] of matrices with lines drawn between rows and columns is the same as those without lines, it's hard to do this via 3rd party system-wide text expanders (e.g. autohotkey or atext on mac). How does one assign a keyboard shortcut for the menu item Insert > Table/Matrix > New... , preferably using only mathematica? Thanks! Answer In the MenuSetup.tr (for linux located in the $InstallationDirectory/SystemFiles/FrontEnd/TextResources/X/ directory), I changed the line MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog"] to read MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog", MenuKey["m", Modifiers-...

mathematical optimization - Minimizing using indices, error: Part::pkspec1: The expression cannot be used as a part specification

I want to use Minimize where the variables to minimize are indices pointing into an array. Here a MWE that hopefully shows what my problem is. vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@ { Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; Minimize[{Total@((vec1[[#]] - vec2[[u[#]]])^2 & /@ Range[1, 3]), cons}, vars, Integers] The error I get: Part::pkspec1: The expression u[1] cannot be used as a part specification. >> Answer Ok, it seems that one can get around Mathematica trying to evaluate vec2[[u[1]]] too early by using the function Indexed[vec2,u[1]] . The working MWE would then look like the following: vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@{ Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; NMinimize[ {Total@((vec1[[#]] - Indexed[vec2, u[#]])^2 & /@ R...
