Description

Classes for norms based on quadratic forms

Objects from the Class

could be created by a call to new, but normally one would use the generating functions QFNorm, InfoNorm, and SelfNorm

Slots

name

Object of class "character".

fct

Object of class "function".

QuadForm

Object of class "PosSemDefSymmMatrix".

Extends

"QFNorm" extends class "NormType", directly, and "InfoNorm" and "SelfNorm" each extend class "QFNorm", directly (and do not have extra slots).

Methods

QuadForm

signature(object = "QFNorm"): accessor function for slot QuadForm.

QuadForm<-

signature(object = "QFNorm"): replacement function for slot QuadForm.
