numerical integration - Whether NIntegrate evaluation is multithreaded or not?


About MultiThread evaluation I am talking about here, see this post


I am NIntegrate the function grarm[e, 3, dimension, 1, 1, 0.005]. There is matrix operation in function grarm, the dimension set the dim of the matrix.


I give the code of gram in the end.( take notice that you will have to manually change the dimension to get different gram with different dimension variable before integration)


OK, First I set dimension equals 7, and integrate the following


In:=NIntegrate[Im[grarm[e, 3, 7, 1, 1, 0.005]^2], {e, -0.3, 0}, 
MaxRecursion -> 200] // AbsoluteTiming

Out:={7.454151, 0.0581345}


and If I use linux command top to monitor the cpu situation, I see it is single threaded. See enter image description here


now, I set dimension to 9, and integrate the following


In[55]:= NIntegrate[Im[grarm[e, 3, 9, 1, 1, 0.005]^2], {e, -0.3, 0}, 
MaxRecursion -> 200] // AbsoluteTiming

Out[55]= {83.592780, 0.0271489}

and If I use linux command top to monitor the cpu situation, I see it is multi-threaded. See enter image description here


And Now I force the same integration to use one thread only, integrate the following



In[56]:= 
ParallelMap[
NIntegrate[
Im[grarm[e, #[[1]], 9, #[[2]], 1, 0.005]^2], {e, -0.3, 0},
MaxRecursion -> 200] &,
Tuples[{Range[3, 3], Range[1, 1]}]] // AbsoluteTiming

Out[56]= {16.575363, {0.0271489}}

Notice it is much faster, that is odd.



In summary, There are two peculiar things waited to be explained



  1. why dimension=7 is single thread while dimension=9 is multi-thread? Can NIntegrate actually naturally multi-threaded or not? Or the multi-thread is actually due to the matrix operation in the integrand(well, I personally think this is not likely)?

  2. why multi-thread evaluation is much slower than single thread evaluation in the case of dimension 9?




In the end, the code for grarm.(don't forget to change the dimension, before integration)


dimension = 7;

Clear[armchairibbonmat]

armchairibbonmat[kx_, n_] :=
(
h = Table[0, {i, 1, 2 (n + 2)}, {j, 1, 2 (n + 2)}];
a[m_] := 2 m - 1;
b[m_] := 2 m;
t1 = 1;
aa = 1;
Do[
h[[b[i], a[i]]] = t1 E^(I kx aa);
h[[a[i], b[i]]] = t1 E^(-I kx aa);

h[[b[i + 1], a[i]]] = t1 E^(-I kx aa/2);
h[[b[i - 1], a[i]]] = t1 E^(-I kx aa/2);
h[[a[i - 1], b[i]]] = t1 E^(I kx aa/2);
h[[a[i + 1], b[i]]] = t1 E^(I kx aa/2);
, {i, 2, n + 1}];
h = ArrayPad[h, -2]
)

mat = Compile[{kx, n}, Evaluate@armchairibbonmat[kx, dimension]];
Clear[armchairibbonmat];

armchairibbonmat = mat;

Clear[gkarm]
gkarm[kx_?NumericQ, e_, xx_, width_, ii_, label_, \[Eta]_] :=
Inverse[(e - I \[Eta]) IdentityMatrix[2*width] -
armchairibbonmat[kx, width]][[2*(ii - 1) + label,
2*(ii - 1) + label]]

Clear[fkx]
fkx[kx_?NumericQ, xx_] := E^(I kx xx)


Clear[grarm]
grarm[e_?NumericQ, xx_, width_, ii_, label_, \[Eta]_] :=
NIntegrate[
gkarm[kx, e, xx, width, ii, label, \[Eta]]*
fkx[kx, xx], {kx, -\[Pi]/3, \[Pi]/3}, MaxRecursion -> 200]

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-...
