Added

  • (native) the install guides checked on clean machines, the page written from them, and two discovery fixes they found (#255)
  • (backend) auto chooses the direct solver from this machine's benchmark records (#254)
  • (studio) the Academy opens each lesson on a drawing of its device, in 2D and 3D (#274)
  • (native) MUMPS as a direct solver, its sequential build, releases 5.4 to 5.8 (#260)
  • (native) SuperLU as a direct solver, releases 5 to 7 (#261)
  • (mode) every mode in a region of n_eff by contour integrals (Sakurai–Sugiura, FEAST) (#276)
  • (studio) release channels, Stable and Nightly, Nightly built here from main (#277)
  • (native) Apple Accelerate's sparse solvers as a direct solver on macOS (#263)
  • (native) MUMPS's block low-rank factorization as the backend mumps-blr, refined (#278)
  • (backend) the multifrontal fronts' dense kernels as a trait, with OpenBLAS, oneMKL and Accelerate behind it (#269)
  • (fdfd) block QMR for all of a 3D S-matrix's ports at once, opt-in (#284)

Fixed

  • the same example outputs on Linux, Windows and macOS, exp, sin and cos in pure Rust where a result hangs on the last bit (#282)

Performance

  • (fdtd) smoothing passes over the shapes out of a cell's reach by their boxes, and CI runs the 3D examples on runners of their own (#265)
  • (fdfd) QMR on the curl-curl operator without its matrix, a product 1.6 to 2.6 times faster at a sixth of the memory (#259)

Documentation

  • (plans) Wang et al.'s review of integrated photonic quantum technologies is from October 2019 (#262)
  • the README cut to what photonoxide does, without the padding (#268)
  • (plans) Python and MATLAB bindings, a plan and the decisions it needs (#272)
  • the Academy in the README's studio GIFs, in place of the themes (#270)
  • papers cited by the year they were published online (#266)
  • plans, roadmap and notes written in my own voice, not about "the owner" (#273)
  • (plans) Ryser's permanent read in Lundow and Markström 2022, his 1963 book being out of print (#279)
  • (roadmap) 0.5.1 releases the channels, backends and mode search now; many solves at once moves to 0.5.2 (#283)
  • 0.5.1 released, its GPU report measured on an idle machine, 0.5.2 next (#285)
