This operator combines one or more linear operators [op1,...,opJ], building a new LinearOperator, whose underlying matrix representation has each operator opi on the main diagonal, and zero's elsewhere.
Shape compatibility
If opj acts like a [batch] matrix Aj, then op_combined acts like the [batch] matrix formed by having each matrix Aj on the main diagonal.
Each opj is required to represent a matrix, and hence will have shape batch_shape_j + [M_j, N_j].
If opj has shape batch_shape_j + [M_j, N_j], then the combined operator has shape broadcast_batch_shape + [sum M_j, sum N_j], where broadcast_batch_shape is the mutual broadcast of batch_shape_j, j = 1,...,J, assuming the intermediate batch shapes broadcast.
Arguments to matmul, matvec, solve, and solvevec may either be single Tensors or lists of Tensors that are interpreted as blocks. The jth element of a blockwise list of Tensors must have dimensions that match opj for the given method. If a list of blocks is input, then a list of blocks is returned as well.
When the opj are not guaranteed to be square, this operator's methods might fail due to the combined operator not being square and/or lack of efficient methods.

Performance
The performance of LinearOperatorBlockDiag on any operation is equal to the sum of the individual operators' operations.
Matrix property hints
This LinearOperator is initialized with boolean flags of the form is_X, for X = non_singular, self_adjoint, positive_definite, square. These have the following meaning:
If is_X == True, callers should expect the operator to have the property X. This is a promise that should be fulfilled, but is not a runtime assert. For example, finite floating point precision may result in these promises being violated.
If is_X == False, callers should expect the operator to not have X.
If is_X == None (the default), callers should have no expectation either way.
Args
operators

is_non_singular

is_self_adjoint
Expect that this operator is equal to its hermitian transpose.
is_positive_definite
Expect that this operator is positive definite, meaning the quadratic form x^H A x has positive real part for all nonzero x.
