symODE

Python software for the algebraic (SymPy) and numerical (SciPy) treatment of ordinary differential equations (ODEs)

The used coding convention is PEP8.

Backlog

Architecture

• attribute self._ode should be a dictionary. This would impact a lot of functions (e.g. new_parameter_set)

• should self.parameters/self.variables be a set?

Features

• allow ODEs to be dependent on time explicitly

• get_limit_cycle

• find_symmetries

• inflection set (see Ref. ?)

• compute total time derivative of observable

• check given ansatz for adjoint equation

• get_isostable_map_at_fixed_points:

  • review whether the new DynamicalSystem is really necessary
  • check for degenerate case of eigenvalues with multipl. > 1

• new_coupled:

  • as default: if no specifications are given, impose mean field coupling in first variable with coupling parameter "epsilon"

• compute Jacobian, Hessian and compiler only when needed

Deployment

• anaconda/pip package

• CI/CD with GitHub actions
