performance tuning - DSolve gets stuck on system of differential equations with unassigned variable


Hopefully someone can help me with this problem. I'm running a fairly simple script that involves some matrix operations and ends with a fairly nasty system of differential equations:


h2 = {{0, -(Ω/2)}, {-(Ω/2), -k v + Δ}}

ρ = {{ρ11[t], ρ12[t]}, {ρ21[t], ρ22[t]}}


ρprime = -I (h2.ρ - ρ.h2) + {{1/2 γ ρ22[t], -γ ρ12[t]}, {-γ ρ21[t], -(1/2) γ ρ22[t]}}

replace3 = {Δ -> 0.1, γ -> 1, Ω -> 0.1, k -> 0.1};

p3 = DSolve[{ρ11'[t] == ρprime[[1, 1]], ρ12'[t] == ρprime[[1, 2]],
ρ21'[t] == ρprime[[2, 1]], ρ22'[t] == ρprime[[2, 2]],
ρ11[0] == 1, ρ22[0] == 0, ρ12[0] == 0, ρ21[0] == 0} /. replace3,
{ρ11[t], ρ12[t], ρ21[t], ρ22[t]}, {t}]


Basically, I'm trying to solve a system of four differential equations analytically, with one variable, v, left unassigned. It is very important that v not be assigned a value as this point in the script. However, when I run it, it gets stuck on the DSolve part and can't seem to do it. When I first assign v a value and then run it, the DSolve works fine. Is this system of equations simply to complicated to be solved analytically? Is there another way to do this?

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...
