Package jline.api.snc

Interface SncEnvelope

public interface SncEnvelope
An MGF envelope evaluated at a Chernoff parameter.

The whole family passes envelopes as functions of theta rather than as numbers, because every bound is an infimum over theta and a composition (superposition, leftover service, concatenation, departure) has to be re-evaluated at whatever theta the search asks for. Building the numbers eagerly at one theta would defeat the optimization.

      double[] eval(double theta)
      Parameters:
      theta - Chernoff parameter, theta > 0
      Returns:
      the pair {sigma(theta), rho(theta)}; a non-finite entry marks an infeasible theta and is discarded by Snc_thetaopt
