After Marie's latest addition of enriched spaces (and
some discussion
with Doug Arnold), it seems clear that our current
notation V + W for
mixed spaces is not optimal.
Even though one may think of the operation of creating a "mixed
function space" as a direct sum,
X = {(v, 0) : v in V} \oplus {(0, w) : w in W},
it is more natural (and common) to think of it as a
Cartesian product,
X = V \times W = {(v, w) : v in V, w in W}
It would therefore be more natural to use '*' instead of '+' as the
operation for creating mixed elements/function spaces.
That would free up '+' to be used for enriched spaces (which have
recently been added),
X = {v + w : v in V, w in W}
The typical example would be to take V piecewise
linears and W scaled
P3 bubbles.
In summary, the suggestion is to use the following notation:
+ <--> +
* <--> \times
It's obvious this is better than what we have now which is
+ <--> \oplus
? <--> +
Thoughts?
Agree.
Me too.
Garth
ok. Let's change then.
It will require changes in both UFL and FFC. Anyone up for it?
I can fix ffc.
I was hoping for that. :-)
(Have no permission for ufl)
You do now. ;-)
Aka, I'll fix that too.
Fixed:
(a) ElementUnion is now called EnrichedElement.
(b) (Old) V + Q --> (New) V * Q
(c) V + Q = EnrichedElement(V, Q)
Now, PYDOLFIN needs updating...
Done.
Great! (I'm off to do some Mini debugging.)
