1  Purpose

nag_zggglm (f08zpc) solves a complex general Gauss–Markov linear (least squares) model problem.

2  Specification

#include <nag.h>
#include <nagf08.h>
void  nag_zggglm (Nag_OrderType order, Integer m, Integer n, Integer p, Complex a[], Integer pda, Complex b[], Integer pdb, Complex d[], Complex x[], Complex y[], NagError *fail)

3  Description

nag_zggglm (f08zpc) solves the complex general Gauss–Markov linear model (GLM) problem
minimize x y2  subject to  d=Ax+By
where A is an m by n matrix, B is an m by p matrix and d is an m element vector. It is assumed that nmn+p, rankA=n and rankE=m, where E= A B . Under these assumptions, the problem has a unique solution x and a minimal 2-norm solution y, which is obtained using a generalized QR factorization of the matrices A and B.
In particular, if the matrix B is square and nonsingular, then the GLM problem is equivalent to the weighted linear least squares problem
minimize x B-1 d-Ax 2 .

5  Arguments

1:     orderNag_OrderTypeInput
On entry: the order argument specifies the two-dimensional storage scheme being used, i.e., row-major ordering or column-major ordering. C language defined storage is specified by order=Nag_RowMajor. See Section 3.2.1.3 in the Essential Introduction for a more detailed explanation of the use of this argument.
Constraint: order=Nag_RowMajor or Nag_ColMajor.
2:     mIntegerInput
On entry: m, the number of rows of the matrices A and B.
Constraint: m0.
3:     nIntegerInput
On entry: n, the number of columns of the matrix A.
Constraint: 0nm.
4:     pIntegerInput
On entry: p, the number of columns of the matrix B.
Constraint: pm-n.
5:     a[dim]ComplexInput/Output
Note: the dimension, dim, of the array a must be at least
  • max1,pda×n when order=Nag_ColMajor;
  • max1,m×pda when order=Nag_RowMajor.
The i,jth element of the matrix A is stored in

7:     b[dim]ComplexInput/Output
Note: the dimension, dim, of the array b must be at least
  • max1,pdb×p when order=Nag_ColMajor;

The i,jth element of the matrix B is stored in
  • b[j-1×pdb+i-1] when order=Nag_ColMajor;
  • b[i-1×pdb+j-1] when order=Nag_RowMajor.
On entry: the m by p matrix B.
On exit: b is overwritten.
8:     pdbIntegerInput

NE_INTERNAL_ERROR
An internal error has occurred in this function. Check the function call and any array sizes. If the call is correct then please contact NAG for assistance.
NE_SINGULAR
The bottom N-M by N-M part of the upper trapezoidal factor T associated with B in the generalized QR factorization of the pair A,B is singular, so that rankAB<n; the least squares solutions could not be computed.
The N-P by N-P part of the upper trapezoidal factor T associated with A in the generalized RQ factorization of the pair B,A is singular, so that rankBA<n; the least squares solutions could not be computed.
