NAME

Photonic::WE::R2::Haydock

VERSION

version 0.021

SYNOPSIS

    use Photonic::WE::R2::Haydock;
    my $nr=Photonic::WE::R2::Haydock->new(metric=>$g, polarization=>$p);
    $nr->iterate;
    say $nr->iteration;
    say $nr->current_a;
    say $nr->next_b2;
    my $state=$nr->next_state;

DESCRIPTION

Implements calculation of Haydock coefficients and Haydock states for the calculation of the retarded dielectric function of arbitrary periodic two component systems in arbitrary number of dimentions. One Haydock coefficient at a time.

Consumes Photonic::Roles::Haydock, Photonic::Roles::UseMask - please see those for attributes.

ATTRIBUTES

• metric

  A Photonic::Metric::R2 object defining the geometry of the system, the characteristic function, the wavenumber, wavevector and host dielectric function. Required in the initializer.

• B ndims dims epsilon

  Accessors handled by metric (see Photonic::Metric::R2)

• polarization

  A non null vector defining the complex direction of the macroscopic field.

METHODS

• applyMetric($psi)

  Returns the result of applying the metric 'g' to the state; $psi.

ATTRIBUTES SUPPLIED FOR ROLE

• applyOperator($psi_G)

  Apply the Hamiltonian operator to state. The Hamiltonian is Bg, with g the metric and B the characteristic function. Also applies an optional mask in reciprocal space.

• innerProduct($left, $right)

  Returns the inner Hermitian product between states using the metric.

• $s=magnitude($psi)

  Returns the magnitude of a state as the square root of the inner product of the state with itself.

• changesign

  Returns 1 if sign change is required to ensure b^2 is positive.
