Modify Eigen matrix diagonal

I have an Eigen::MatrixXd and I need to modify the value of the elements in its diagonal. In particular I have another Eigen::MatrixXd with one single column and the same number of rows of the first matrix.

I need to subtract to the diagonal of the first matrix the value of the elements of the second matrix.

Example:

A
 1 2 3
 4 5 6
 7 8 9

B
 1
 1
 1


A'
 0 2 3
 4 4 6
 7 8 8

How can I do?

The simplest and fastest way to do achieve this is:

Eigen::MatrixXd A1(3,3), B(3,1), A2;
...
A2 = A1;
A2.diagonal() -= B;

of course, better use the VectorXd type for vectors (here for B), and finally if B is constant, then you can use array facilities:

A2.diagonal().array() -= 1;

for(int i = 0; i < matrix1.rows(); ++i)
    matrix1(i, i) -= matrix2(i, 0);

This code iterates over each row of the matrix (matrix1.rows()) and subtracts the corresponding value of matrix2 (matrix2(i, 0)) from the diagonals in matrix1 (matrix1(i, i)).

Matrix manipulation in Eigen works very similar to that of arrays. The indexing starts from zero and it is row major. The documentation (Eigen: The Matrix Class is well written and may help you to solve future problems.

For your stated problem the solution is given below.

#include <iostream>
#include <eigen3/Eigen/Dense>
using Eigen::MatrixXd;
int main()
{
  MatrixXd matA(3,3), matB(3,1);
  matA<<1,2,3,
    4,5,6,
    7,8,9;
  matB<<1,1,1;
  for(int i=0; i<3;i++)
    matA(i,i) -= matB(i);
  std::cout<<matA<<std::endl;
  return 0;
}

However, I would use Matrix3d and Vector3d for the first and second matrix, respectively.

This works for me:

A_2=A-B.asDiagonal();
