shbias(1)

SHBias
Calculate the (cross-)power spectrum expectation of a windowed function from its global spectrum.

Usage
call SHBias (shh, lwin, incspectra, ldata, outcspectra, save_cg, exitstatus)

Parameters

shh : input, real(dp), dimension (lwin+1)
    The power spectrum of the localizing window.

lwin : input, integer(int32)
    The spherical harmonic bandwidth of the localizing window.

incspectra : input, real(dp), dimension (ldata+1)
    The global unwindowed (cross-)power spectrum.

ldata : input, integer(int32)
    The maximum degree of the global unwindowed power spectrum.

outcspectra : output, real(dp), dimension (ldata+lwin+1)
    The expectation of the localized (cross-)power spectrum.

save_cg : optional, input, integer(int32), default = 0
    If set equal to 1, the Clebsch-Gordon coefficients will be precomputed and saved for future use (if lwin or ldata change, this will be recomputed). To deallocate the saved memory, set this parameter equal to -1. If set equal to 0 (default), the Clebsch-Gordon coefficients will be recomputed for each call.

exitstatus : output, optional(int32), integer
    If present, instead of executing a STOP when an error is encountered, the variable exitstatus will be returned describing the error. 0 = No errors; 1 = Improper dimensions of input array; 2 = Improper bounds for input variable; 3 = Error allocating memory; 4 = File IO error.

Description
SHBias will calculate the (cross-)power spectrum expectation of a function multiplied by a localizing window. This is given by equation 35 of Wieczorek and Simons (2005) and equation 2.11 of Wieczorek and Simons (2007),

<SFG> = Sum_{j=0}^L Shh Sum_{i=|l-j|}^{|l+j|} Sfg (C_{j0i0}^{l0})^2

where <SFG> is the expectation of the localized (cross-)power spectrum, Shh is the power spectrum of the window bandlimited to degree L, Sfg is the global unwindowed (cross-)power spectrum, and C is a Clebsch-Gordan coefficient. The Clebsch-Gordan coefficients are calculated using a simple relationship to the Wigner 3-j symbols. The maximum calculated degree of the windowed power spectrum expectation corresponds to the smaller of (ldata+lwin) and size(outcspectra)-1. It is implicitly assumed that the power spectrum of inspectrum is zero beyond degree ldata.. If this is not the case, the ouput power spectrum should be considered valid only for the degrees up to and including ldata - lwin.

If this routine is to be called several times using the same values of lwin and ldata, then the Clebsch-Gordon coefficients can be precomputed and saved by setting the optional parameter save_cg equal to 1. To deallocate the saved memory, which is a matrix of size (lwin+ldata,lwin,2*lwin+ldata+1), set save_cg equal to -1.
