There is no <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">log</span></code> or <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">sqrt</span></code> provided for octonions in this implementation,
|
|
and <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">pow</span></code> is likewise restricted
|
|
to integral powers of the exponent. There are several reasons to this: on the
|
|
one hand, the equivalent of analytic continuation for octonions ("branch
|
|
cuts") remains to be investigated thoroughly (by me, at any rate...),
|
|
and we wish to avoid the nonsense introduced in the standard by exponentiations
|
|
of complexes by complexes (which is well defined, but not in the standard...).
|
|
Talking of nonsense, saying that <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">pow</span><span class="special">(</span><span class="number">0</span><span class="special">,</span><span class="number">0</span><span class="special">)</span></code> is "implementation
|
|
defined" is just plain brain-dead...
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
We do, however provide several transcendentals, chief among which is the exponential.
|
|
That it allows for a "closed formula" is a result of the author (the
|
|
existence and definition of the exponential, on the octonions among others,
|
|
on the other hand, is a few centuries old). Basically, any converging power
|
|
series with real coefficients which allows for a closed formula in <span class="emphasis"><em><span class="bold"><strong>C</strong></span></em></span> can be transposed to <span class="emphasis"><em><span class="bold"><strong>O</strong></span></em></span>. More transcendentals of this type could
|
|
be added in a further revision upon request. It should be noted that it is
|
|
these functions which force the dependency upon the <a href="../../../../../boost/math/special_functions/sinc.hpp" target="_top">boost/math/special_functions/sinc.hpp</a>
|
|
and the <a href="../../../../../boost/math/special_functions/sinhc.hpp" target="_top">boost/math/special_functions/sinhc.hpp</a>
