Given a vector (φ_1, …, φ_m) representing the values of a piecewise linear concave function at
x_1, …, x_m,etaphi returns a column vector with the entries
η = (φ_1, (η_1 + ∑_{j=2}^m (x_i-x_{i-1})η_i)_{i=2}^m).
The function phieta returns a vector with the entries
φ = (η_1, ((φ_i-φ_{i-1})/(x_i-x_{i-1}))_{i=2}^m).
Usage
etaphi(x, eta)
phieta(x, phi)
Arguments
x
Vector of independent and identically distributed numbers, with strictly increasing entries.
eta
Vector with entries η_i = η(x_i).
phi
Vector with entries φ_i = φ(x_i).
