Detailed Description

This class holds a generator T_a or the unity element of the Lie algebra of SU(3), as used for calculations in quantum chromodynamics.

A representation label (an unsigned 8-bit integer) is used to distinguish elements from different Lie algebras (objects with different labels commutate). These objects implement an abstract representation of the group, not a specific matrix representation. The indices used for color objects should not have a variance.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ color() [1/4]

GiNaC::color::color ( const ex b,
unsigned char  rl = 0 
)

Construct object without any color index.

This constructor is for internal use only. Use the color_ONE() function instead.

color_ONE

Definition at line 78 of file color.cpp.

Referenced by thiscontainer().

◆ color() [2/4]

GiNaC::color::color ( const ex b,
const ex i1,
unsigned char  rl = 0 
)

Construct object with one color index.

This constructor is for internal use only. Use the color_T() function instead.

Member Function Documentation

◆ archive()

void GiNaC::color::archive ( archive_node n) const
overridevirtual

Save (serialize) the object into archive node.

Archive the object.

Losely speaking, this method turns an expression into a byte stream (which can be saved and restored later on, or sent via network, etc.)

Reimplemented from GiNaC::basic.

Definition at line 114 of file color.cpp.

References n, and representation_label.

◆ read_archive()

void GiNaC::color::read_archive ( const archive_node n,
lst syms 
)
overridevirtual

Load (deserialize) the object from an archive node.

Construct object from archive_node.

Note
This method is essentially a constructor. However, constructors can't be virtual. So, if unarchiving routines are implemented as constructors one would need to define such a constructor in every class, even if all it does is simply calling constructor of a superclass.

Reimplemented from GiNaC::basic.

Definition at line 106 of file color.cpp.

References n, and representation_label.

◆ eval_ncmul()

ex GiNaC::color::eval_ncmul ( const exvector v) const
overrideprotectedvirtual

Perform automatic simplification on noncommutative product of color objects.

This removes superfluous ONEs.

Reimplemented from GiNaC::basic.

Definition at line 163 of file color.cpp.

References GiNaC::hold_ncmul(), and GiNaC::container_storage< C >::reserve().

◆ match_same_type()

bool GiNaC::color::match_same_type ( const basic other) const
overrideprotectedvirtual

Returns true if the attributes of two objects are similar enough for a match.

This function must not match subexpressions (this is already done by basic::match()). Only attributes not accessible by op() should be compared. This is also the reason why this function doesn't take the wildcard replacement list from match() as an argument: only subexpressions are subject to wildcard matches. Also, this function only needs to be implemented for container classes because is_equal_same_type() is automatically used instead of match_same_type() if nops() == 0.
