Methods
collect()#

Returns a guaranteed concrete instance of an operator.

As some operations on operators return lazy wrappers (such as transpose, hermitian conjugate…), this is used to obtain a guaranteed non-lazy operator.

Return type

AbstractOperator

conj(*, concrete=False)#
Return type

AbstractOperator

conjugate(*, concrete=False)#

Returns the complex-conjugate of this operator.

Parameters

concrete – if True returns a concrete operator and not a lazy wrapper

Return type

AbstractOperator

Returns

if concrete is not True, self or a lazy wrapper; the complex-conjugated operator otherwise

transpose(*, concrete=False)#

Returns the transpose of this operator.

Parameters

concrete – if True returns a concrete operator and not a lazy wrapper

Return type

AbstractOperator

Returns

if concrete is not True, self or a lazy wrapper; the transposed operator otherwise
