triqs.gfs.plot.plot_base.plot_base

triqs.gfs.plot.plot_base.plot_base(self, opt_dict, xlabel, ylabel, X, allow_spectral_mode=False)[source]

Build the curve dictionaries consumed by oplot().

The following plotting options are consumed by this function:

name — label prefix for the legend (defaults to self.name).
mode — one of 'R' (real), 'I' (imaginary), 'S' (spectral function) or empty (both real and imaginary). Default ''.
x_window — (xmin, xmax) clipping window on the mesh axis.

Any other entries are forwarded to every curve dictionary.

Parameters:

selfGf: Green’s function being plotted.
opt_dictdict: Plot options.
xlabelstr: xlabel for the plot.
ylabelcallable: ylabel(name) -> str producing the y-axis label from the Green’s function name.
Xarray-like: Mesh values for the x axis.
allow_spectral_modebool, optional: If True, mode='S' is accepted and returns \(-\frac{1}{\pi}\,\mathrm{Im}\, G\). Default False.

Returns:

list of dict: One dictionary per target-space element to be plotted, with keys xlabel, ylabel, xdata, ydata, label and any pass-through options from opt_dict.

Raises:

ValueError: For an unknown mode value, or for mode='S' when allow_spectral_mode is False.
