The recipe to calculate the dilation follows the theory mentioned by Béla Szőkefalvi-Nagy in "Analyse harmonique des opérateurs de l'espace de Hilbert" (1967). The matrix square root needed for the dilation is calculated using the Exponential Method for Matrices.
Run any common go tasks such as go test ./....
This project was built on go version go1.13.9.
Build n dilations by calling UnitaryNDilation(m, n), where t is of type *mat.Dense (see gonum) - the contraction that will be dilated, and n is of type int - the degree that the dilation will have.
Note that the defect operator of t must have real eigenvalues.
Import the library as github.com/acra5y/go-dilation.
For ill-conditionend matrices (e.g. with high eigenvalues or eigenvalues close to 0) the result might be imprecise.
