Here we derive the gradients for the LU decomposition.
LIMITATIONS: square inputs of full rank.
If not stated otherwise, for tensors A and B,
`A B` means the matrix product of A and B.
Forward AD:
Note that PyTorch returns packed LU, it is a mapping
A -> (B:= L + U - I, P), such that A = P L U, and
P is a permutation matrix, and is non-differentiable.
Using B = L + U - I, A = P L U, we get
dB = dL + dU and (*)
P^T dA = dL U + L dU (**)
By left/right multiplication of (**) with L^{-1}/U^{-1} we get:
L^{-1} P^T dA U^{-1} = L^{-1} dL + dU U^{-1}.
Note that L^{-1} dL is lower-triangular with zero diagonal,
and dU U^{-1} is upper-triangular.
Define 1_U := triu(ones(n, n)), and 1_L := ones(n, n) - 1_U, so
L^{-1} dL = 1_L * (L^{-1} P^T dA U^{-1}),
dU U^{-1} = 1_U * (L^{-1} P^T dA U^{-1}), where * denotes the Hadamard product.
Hence we finally get:
dL = L 1_L * (L^{-1} P^T dA U^{-1}),
dU = 1_U * (L^{-1} P^T dA U^{-1}) U
Backward AD:
The backward sensitivity is then:
Tr(B_grad^T dB) = Tr(B_grad^T dL) + Tr(B_grad^T dU) = [1] + [2].
[1] = Tr(B_grad^T dL) = Tr(B_grad^T L 1_L * (L^{-1} P^T dA U^{-1}))
= [using Tr(A (B * C)) = Tr((A * B^T) C)]
= Tr((B_grad^T L * 1_L^T) L^{-1} P^T dA U^{-1})
= [cyclic property of trace]
= Tr(U^{-1} (B_grad^T L * 1_L^T) L^{-1} P^T dA)
= Tr((P L^{-T} (L^T B_grad * 1_L) U^{-T})^T dA).
Similar, [2] can be rewritten as:
[2] = Tr(P L^{-T} (B_grad U^T * 1_U) U^{-T})^T dA, hence
Tr(A_grad^T dA) = [1] + [2]
= Tr((P L^{-T} (L^T B_grad * 1_L + B_grad U^T * 1_U) U^{-T})^T dA), so
A_grad = P L^{-T} (L^T B_grad * 1_L + B_grad U^T * 1_U) U^{-T}.
In the code below we use the name `LU` instead of `B`, so that there is no confusion
in the derivation above between the matrix product and a two-letter variable name.
