list manipulation - Multidimensional MATLAB conversion


I try to convert this MATLAB code: From:



(useful to compute some prox of some functions):


case 3
%% 3D field %%
V = cat(4, ...
U.M{1}(1:end-1,:,:) + U.M{1}(2:end,:,:), ...
U.M{2}(:,1:end-1,:) + U.M{2}(:,2:end,:), ...

U.M{3}(:,:,1:end-1) + U.M{3}(:,:,2:end));
case 4
%% 4D field %%
V = cat(5, ...
U.M{1}(1:end-1,:,:,:) + U.M{1}(2:end,:,:,:), ...
U.M{2}(:,1:end-1,:,:) + U.M{2}(:,2:end,:,:), ...
U.M{3}(:,:,1:end-1,:) + U.M{3}(:,:,2:end,:),...
U.M{4}(:,:,:,1:end-1) + U.M{4}(:,:,:,2:end));

"The dimension of U.M{1} is (N+1,N) while that of U.M{2} is (N,N+1) for 2D field". I would like to have the same behavior on Mathematica, without a switch case, on arbitrary dimension. I try to do some mix with Take, Drop, ... Without any success.



rank = 4;
size = 30;
baseDim = ConstantArray[size, rank];
U = Table[Array[Subscript[m, ##] &, ReplacePart[baseDim, k -> size + 1]], {k, 1, rank}];

The idea of the MATLAB code is to concatenate N sub-tensor by taking the begining of and the end of each dimension and sum them up.


Here the '4' stand for the dimension where I would like to catenate, that do the same job as "Join". This is the intuition behind the Mathematica code above. In pure Mathematica for a Tensor with Rank 4 above the special case code can look like:


Join[U[[1]][[2 ;; ,   ;; ,   ;; ,   ;;]] + U[[1]][[;; -2, ;;   , ;;   , ;;   ]],
U[[2]][[ ;; , 2 ;; , ;; , ;;]] + U[[2]][[;; , ;; -2, ;; , ;; ]],
U[[3]][[ ;; , ;; , 2 ;; , ;;]] + U[[3]][[;; , ;; , ;; -2, ;; ]],

U[[4]][[ ;; , ;; , ;; , 2 ;;]] + U[[4]][[;; , ;; , ;; , ;; -2]], 5]

[Edit] The solution based on the answer of @Henrik-Schumacher:


With[{all = ConstantArray[All, rank]},
Table[U[[k]][[Sequence @@ ReplacePart[all, k -> 2 ;;]]] + U[[k]][[Sequence @@ ReplacePart[all, k -> ;; -2]]], {k, 1, rank}]
]

Answer



Up to the final Join which I don't understand, the following might help:


r = 4;
tmp = Array[Subscript[m, ##] &, ConstantArray[3, r]];


With[{idx = ConstantArray[All, r]},
Table[
tmp[[Sequence @@ ReplacePart[idx, i -> 2 ;;]]] +
tmp[[Sequence @@ ReplacePart[idx, i -> ;; -2]]],
{i, 1, r}]
]

or


Table[Map[2 MovingAverage[#, {1, 1}] &, tmp, {i - 1}], {i, 1, r}]

functions - Get leading series expansion term?

Given a function f[x] , I would like to have a function leadingSeries that returns just the leading term in the series around x=0 . For example: leadingSeries[(1/x + 2)/(4 + 1/x^2 + x)] x and leadingSeries[(1/x + 2 + (1 - 1/x^3)/4)/(4 + x)] -(1/(16 x^3)) Is there such a function in Mathematica? Or maybe one can implement it efficiently? EDIT I finally went with the following implementation, based on Carl Woll 's answer: lds[ex_,x_]:=( (ex/.x->(x+O[x]^2))/.SeriesData[U_,Z_,L_List,Mi_,Ma_,De_]:>SeriesData[U,Z,{L[[1]]},Mi,Mi+1,De]//Quiet//Normal) The advantage is, that this one also properly works with functions whose leading term is a constant: lds[Exp[x],x] 1 Answer Update 1 Updated to eliminate SeriesData and to not return additional terms Perhaps you could use: leadingSeries[expr_, x_] := Normal[expr /. x->(x+O[x]^2) /. a_List :> Take[a, 1]] Then for your examples: leadingSeries[(1/x + 2)/(4 + 1/x^2 + x), x] leadingSeries[Exp[x], x] leadingSeries[(1/x + 2 + (1 - 1/x...

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-...
