frobenius

std.linalg.frobenius · Level L1

Frobenius norm of a matrix. Calls frobenius_sq.

‖A‖_F = √(Σᵢⱼ Aᵢⱼ²)

Signature

frobenius(A: f64[m, n]) → f64[]

Structure

The function as NOVA stores it: one box per input, operation and output, and arrows that carry values. A double border marks another library function this one runs — called once, or by Scan once per element; select it to open that function.

Verification

  • Signature proven by NOVA’s shape solver, for every size.
  • Agrees with the reference np.linalg.norm(A, 'fro') to 80 digits (100-digit arithmetic), on all 40 test cases.
  • All 40 float64 results inside the running error bound; the closest uses 83% of it.
  • Interpreter and NumPy backend return bit-identical results.

The semantic hash of the graph. It changes when the program changes, and never when only its documentation does.

Needs
no capability: a pure function

Through NOVA’s control layer, the symbol launches this function only while the program still matches what it pins: a change to this graph, or to any graph it reaches, needs a migration first.
