    Returns the lower triangular part of a matrix (2-D tensor) or batch

    on and below the diagonal.

    Args:

            Support data types: ``bool``, ``float64``, ``float32``, ``int32``, ``int64``.

            If :attr:`diagonal` = 0, all elements on and below the main diagonal are
            retained. A positive value includes just as many diagonals above the main
            diagonal, and similarly a negative value excludes just as many diagonals below
            the main diagonal. The main diagonal are the set of indices
            :math:`\{(i, i)\}` for :math:`i \in [0, \min\{d_{1}, d_{2}\} - 1]` where
