I would use option 3. Keep a work vector and do a vector summation
instead of the multiple multiplication by scale and 1/scale.
I agree with you the docs are a little misleading here.

Thank you both for the very quick answer!
So far, I compiled PETSc with debugging turned on, but I think it
should still be faster than standard scipy in both cases.
Actually, Stefano's answer has got me very far already; now I only
define the RHS of the ODE and no Jacobian (I wonder, why the
documentation suggests otherwise, though). I had the following
four tries at implementing the RHS:
1. def rhsfunc1(ts, t, u, F):
scale = 0.5 * (5 < t < 10)
(l + scale * pump).mult(u, F)
2. def rhsfunc2(ts, t, u, F):
l.mult(u, F)
scale = 0.5 * (5 < t < 10)
(scale * pump).multAdd(u, F, F)
3. def rhsfunc3(ts, t, u, F):
l.mult(u, F)
scale = 0.5 * (5 < t < 10)
if scale != 0:
pump.scale(scale)
pump.multAdd(u, F, F)
pump.scale(1/scale)
4. def rhsfunc4(ts, t, u, F):
tmp_pump.zeroEntries() # tmp_pump is pump.duplicate()
l.mult(u, F)
scale = 0.5 * (5 < t < 10)
tmp_pump.axpy(scale, pump,
structure=PETSc.Mat.Structure.SAME_NONZERO_PATTERN)
tmp_pump.multAdd(u, F, F)
They all yield the same results, but with 50it/s, 800it/, 2300it/s
and 1900it/s, respectively, which is a huge performance boost
(almost 7 times as fast as scipy, with PETSc debugging still
turned on). As the scale function will most likely be a gaussian
in the future, I think that option 3 will be become numerically
unstable and I'll have to go with option 4, which is already
faster than I expected. If you think it is possible to speed up
the RHS calculation even more, I'd be happy to hear your
suggestions; the -log_view is attached to this message.
One last point: If I didn't misunderstand the documentation at
https://petsc.org/release/manual/ts/#special-cases, should this
maybe be changed?
Best regards
Niclas

TSRK is an explicit solver. Unless you are changing the ts type
from command line, the explicit jacobian should not be needed.
On top of Barry's suggestion, I would suggest you to write the
explicit RHS instead of assembly a throw away matrix every time
that function needs to be sampled.

Hi all,
I'm currently trying to convert a quantum simulation from
scipy to
PETSc. The problem itself is extremely simple and of the form
\dot{u}(t)
= (A_const + f(t)*B_const)*u(t), where f(t) in this simple
test case is
a square function. The matrices A_const and B_const are
extremely sparse
and therefore I thought, the problem will be well suited for
PETSc.
Currently, I solve the ODE with the following procedure in
scipy (I can
provide the necessary data files, if needed, but they are
just some
trace-preserving, very sparse matrices):
import numpy as np
import scipy.sparse
import scipy.integrate
from tqdm import tqdm
l = np.load("../liouvillian.npy")
pump = np.load("../pump_operator.npy")
state = np.load("../initial_state.npy")
l = scipy.sparse.csr_array(l)
pump = scipy.sparse.csr_array(pump)
def f(t, y, *args):
return (l + 0.5 * (5 < t < 10) * pump) @ y
#return l @ y # Uncomment for f(t) = 0
dt = 0.1
NUM_STEPS = 200
res = np.empty((NUM_STEPS, 4096), dtype=np.complex128)
solver =
scipy.integrate.ode(f).set_integrator("zvode").set_initial_value(state)
times = []
for i in tqdm(range(NUM_STEPS)):
res[i, :] = solver.integrate(solver.t + dt)
times.append(solver.t)
Here, A_const = l, B_const = pump and f(t) = 5 < t < 10. tqdm
reports
about 330it/s on my machine. When converting the code to
PETSc, I came
to the following result (according to the chapter
https://petsc.org/main/manual/ts/#special-cases)

I decomposed the complex ODE into a larger real ODE, so that
I can
easily switch maybe to GPU computation later on. Now, the
solutions of
both scripts are very much identical, but PETSc runs about 3
times
slower at 120it/s on my machine. I don't use MPI for PETSc yet.
I strongly suppose that the problem lies within the jacobian
definition,
as PETSc is about 3 times *faster* than scipy with f(t) = 0 and
therefore a constant jacobian.
Thank you in advance.
All the best,
Niclas
