plotting - How to scale values for ColorFunction in SliceContourPlot3D?


Trying to help out in the question, Finite Elements 3D, I came across this behavior of SliceContourPlot3D:


op = -Laplacian[u[x, y, z], {x, y, z}] - 2;
uif = NDSolveValue[{op == 0, DirichletCondition[u[x, y, z] == 0, True}, 
   u, {x, y, z} ∈ Ball[{0, 0, 0}]];

SliceContourPlot3D[
 uif[x, y, z], "CenterPlanes", {x, y, z} ∈ MeshRegion@uif["ElementMesh"], 
 ColorFunction -> "Rainbow"]


Mathematica graphics


The range of colors does not go all the way down to violet/indigo. I expected the range of colors to be something like this:


With[{sel = Positive[uif["Grid"].{0.3, -0.4, -1}]},
 With[{pts = Pick[uif["Grid"], sel]},
  Graphics3D[
   GraphicsComplex[
    pts,
    {Point[Range@Length@pts, 
      VertexColors -> (ColorData["Rainbow"] /@ Rescale[Pick[uif["ValuesOnGrid"], sel]])

      ]}
    ]]
  ]]

Mathematica graphics


Is this a bug in SliceContourPlot3D? (Perhaps it's due to extrapolation from sampling outside the domain?) Is there a way to get it to rescale the colors the way I expected?


I'm using V10.3.0, Mac OSX.



Answer



It seems SliceContourPlot3D makes an initial sample, that is not quite right - i.e. outside of the region. Using


op = -Laplacian[u[x, y, z], {x, y, z}] - 2;

uif = NDSolveValue[{op == 0, 
    DirichletCondition[u[x, y, z] == 0, True]}, 
   u, {x, y, z} \[Element] Ball[{0, 0, 0}], 
   "ExtrapolationHandler" -> {(Indeterminate &),
              "WarningMessage" -> False}];

SliceContourPlot3D[
 uif[x, y, z], "CenterPlanes", {x, y, z} \[Element] 
  MeshRegion@uif["ElementMesh"], ColorFunction -> "Rainbow"]


enter image description here


On a related note, I am wondering if for FEM this ExtrapolationHandler should be the default - what do you think?

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-...
