Replication Details for 1812.03456

Below are replication details for computations with special linear groups as described in Section 5.1 of paper On property (T) for $\operatorname{Aut}(F_n)$ and $\operatorname{SL}_n$. The content of the accompanying jupyter notebook is reproduced below.

For exact details of computations for $36(\operatorname{Adj}_5 + 2 \operatorname{Op}_5) - 50\Delta_5 \in I\operatorname{SAut}(F_5)$ see the document deposited with the dataset in zenodo data repository.

Installation

The following instructions were prepared using julia-1.1.1.


Before exploring the notebook you need to clone the main repository:

 git clone https://github.com/kalmarek/1812.03456.git

This notebook should be located in 1812.03456/notebooks directory.

In the main directory (1812.03456) you should run the following code in julias REPL console to instantiate the environment for computations:

using Pkg
Pkg.activate(".")
Pkg.instantiate()

(this needs to be done once per installation).

Instantiation should install (among others): the SCS solver, JuMP package for mathematical programming and IntervalArithmetic.jl package from ValidatedNumerics.jl.

The environment uses Groups.jl, GroupRings.jl (which are built on the framework of AbstractAlgebra.jl) and PropertyT.jl packages.

The computation

The following programme certifies that $$\operatorname{Adj}_4 + \operatorname{Op}_4 - 0.82\Delta_4 =\Sigma_i \xi_i^*\xi_i \in \Sigma^2_2\mathbb{R}\operatorname{SL}(4,\mathbb{Z}).$$

With small changes (which we will indicate) it also certifies that $$\operatorname{Adj}_3 - 0.157999\Delta_3 \in \Sigma^2_2\mathbb{R}\operatorname{SL}(3,\mathbb{Z})$$ and that $$\operatorname{Adj}_5 +1.5 \mathrm{Op}_5 - 1.5\Delta_5 \in \Sigma^2_2\mathbb{R}\operatorname{SL}(5,\mathbb{Z}).$$

So far we only made the needed packages available in the notebook. In the next cell we define G to be the set of all $4\times 4$ matrices over $\mathbb Z$. (For the second computation, set N=3 below; for the third, set N=5)

N = 4
G = MatrixAlgebra(zz, N)
Matrix Algebra of degree 4 over Integers

Generating set

Now we create the elementary matrices $E_{i,j}$. The set of all such matrices and their inverses is denoted by S.

Group Ring and Laplacians

Now we will generate the ball E_R of radius $R=4$ in $\operatorname{SL}(N,\mathbb{Z})$ and use this as a (partial) basis in a group ring (denoted by RG below). Such group ring also needs a multiplication table (pm, which is actually a division table) which is created as follows: when $x,y$ reside at positions i-th and j-th in E_R, then pm[i,j] = k, where k is the position of $x^{-1}y$ in E_R.

halfradius = 2
E_R, sizes = Groups.generate_balls(S, radius=2*halfradius);
E_rdict = GroupRings.reverse_dict(E_R)
pm = GroupRings.create_pm(E_R, E_rdict, sizes[halfradius]; twisted=true);
RG = GroupRing(G, E_R, E_rdict, pm)
@show sizes;
Δ = length(S)*one(RG) - sum(RG(s) for s in S)
sizes = [25, 433, 6149, 75197]

Orbit Decomposition

Now something happens: in the next cell we split the subspace of $\mathbb{R} \operatorname{SL}(N, \mathbb{Z})$ supported on E_R into irreducible representations of the wreath product $\mathbb Z / 2 \mathbb Z \wr \operatorname{Sym}_N$. The action of wreath product on the elements of the matrix space is by conjugation, i.e. permutation of rows and columns. We also compute projections on the invariant subspaces to later speed up the optimisation step.

od = PropertyT.OrbitData(RG, WreathProduct(PermGroup(2), PermGroup(N)))
orbit_data = PropertyT.decimate(od);

Elements Adj and Op

Now we define the elements $\operatorname{Adj}_N$ and $\operatorname{Op}_N$. The functions Sq, Adj, Op returning the appropriate elements are defined in the src/sqadjop.jl source file.

Finally we compute the element elt of our interest:

  • if N=4: $\operatorname{elt} = \operatorname{Adj}_4 + \operatorname{Op}_4$,
  • if N=5: $\operatorname{elt} = \operatorname{Adj}_5 + 1.5\operatorname{Op}_5$.

Optimization Problem

We are ready to define the optimisation problem. Function

PropertyT.SOS_problem(x, Δ, orbit_data; upper_bound=UB)

defines the optimisation problem equivalent to the one of the form $$\begin{aligned} \text{ maximize : } \quad & \lambda\ \text{under constraints : }\quad & 0 \leqslant \lambda \leqslant \operatorname{UB},\ & x - \lambda \Delta = \sum \xi_i^* \xi_i,\ \end{aligned}$$

Solving the problem

Depending on the actual problem one may need to tweak the parameters given to the solver:

  • eps sets the requested accuracy
  • max_iters sets the number of iterations to run before solver gives up
  • alpha is a parameter ($\alpha \in (0,2)$) which determines the rate of convergence at the cost of the accuracy
  • acceleration_lookback: if you experience numerical instability in scs log should be changed to 1 (at the cost of rate of convergence).

The parameters below should be enough to obtain a decent solution for $\operatorname{SL}(4, \mathbb{Z}), \operatorname{SL}(5, \mathbb{Z})$.
For $\operatorname{SL}(3, \mathbb{Z})$ approximately 1_000_000 of iterations is required; in this case by changing UB to $0.15$ (above) a much faster convergence can be observed.

Checking the solution

Now we reconstruct the solution to the original problem over $\mathbb{R} \operatorname{SL}(N,\mathbb{Z})$, which essentially boils down to averaging the obtained solution over the orbits of wreath product action: $$Q=\frac{1}{|\Sigma|}\sum_{\sigma\in\Sigma}\sum_{\pi\in \widehat{\Sigma}} \dim{\pi}\cdot\sigma\left(U_{\pi}^T \sqrt{P_{\pi}} U_{\pi}\right).$$

Qs = real.(sqrt.(Ps));
Q = PropertyT.reconstruct(Qs, orbit_data);

As explained in the paper the columns of the square-root of the solution matrix provide the coefficients for $\xi_i$’s in basis E_R of the group ring. Below we compute the residual $$ b = \left(x - \lambda\Delta\right) - \sum \xi_i^*\xi_i.$$ As we do it in floating-point arithmetic, the result can’t be taken seriously.

function SOS_residual(x::GroupRingElem, Q::Matrix)
    RG = parent(x)
    @time sos = PropertyT.compute_SOS(RG, Q);
    return x - sos
end
SOS_residual (generic function with 1 method)
residual = SOS_residual(elt - λ*Δ, Q)
@show norm(residual, 1);

Checking in interval arithmetic

using IntervalArithmetic
IntervalArithmetic.setrounding(Interval, :tight)
IntervalArithmetic.setformat(sigfigs=12);

Here we resort to interval arithmetic to provide certified upper and lower bounds on the norm of the residual.

  • We first change entries of Q to narrow intervals
  • We project columns of Q so that $0$ is in the sum of coefficients of each column (i.e. $\xi_i \in I \operatorname{SL}(N,\mathbb{Z})$)
  • We compute the sum of squares and the $\ell_1$-norm of the residual in the interval arithmetic.

The returned check_columns_augmentation is a boolean flag to detect if the projection was successful, i.e. if we can guarantee that each column of Q_aug can be represented by an element from the augmentation ideal. (If it were not successful, one may project Q = PropertyT.augIdproj(Q) in the floating point arithmetic prior to the cell below).

The resulting norm of the residual is guaranteed to be contained in the resulting interval. E.g. if each entry of Q were changed into an honest rational number and all the computations were carried out in rational arithmetic, the rational $\ell_1$-norm will be contained in the interval $\ell_1$-norm.

Q_aug, check_columns_augmentation = PropertyT.augIdproj(Interval, Q);
@assert check_columns_augmentation
elt_int = elt - @interval(λ)*Δ;
residual_int = SOS_residual(elt_int, Q_aug)
@show norm(residual_int, 1);
