# NAG Toolbox: nag_sparse_complex_herm_solve_jacssor (f11js)

## Purpose

nag_sparse_complex_herm_solve_jacssor (f11js) solves a complex sparse Hermitian system of linear equations, represented in symmetric coordinate storage format, using a conjugate gradient or Lanczos method, without preconditioning, with Jacobi or with SSOR preconditioning.

## Syntax

[x, rnorm, itn, rdiag, ifail] = f11js(method, precon, a, irow, icol, omega, b, tol, maxitn, x, 'n', n, 'nnz', nnz)
[x, rnorm, itn, rdiag, ifail] = nag_sparse_complex_herm_solve_jacssor(method, precon, a, irow, icol, omega, b, tol, maxitn, x, 'n', n, 'nnz', nnz)

## Description

nag_sparse_complex_herm_solve_jacssor (f11js) solves a complex sparse Hermitian linear system of equations
 Ax = b, $Ax=b,$
using a preconditioned conjugate gradient method (see Barrett et al. (1994)), or a preconditioned Lanczos method based on the algorithm SYMMLQ (see Paige and Saunders (1975)). The conjugate gradient method is more efficient if A$A$ is positive definite, but may fail to converge for indefinite matrices. In this case the Lanczos method should be used instead. For further details see Barrett et al. (1994).
nag_sparse_complex_herm_solve_jacssor (f11js) allows the following choices for the preconditioner:
• – no preconditioning;
• – Jacobi preconditioning (see Young (1971));
• – symmetric successive-over-relaxation (SSOR) preconditioning (see Young (1971)).
For incomplete Cholesky (IC) preconditioning see nag_sparse_complex_herm_solve_ilu (f11jq).
The matrix A$A$ is represented in symmetric coordinate storage (SCS) format (see Section [Symmetric coordinate storage (SCS) format] in the F11 Chapter Introduction) in the arrays a, irow and icol. The array a holds the nonzero entries in the lower triangular part of the matrix, while irow and icol hold the corresponding row and column indices.

The nonzero elements of the lower triangular part of the matrix A$A$, ordered by increasing row index, and by increasing column index within each row. Multiple entries for the same row and column indices are not permitted. The function nag_sparse_complex_herm_sort (f11zp) may be used to order the elements in this way.
4:     irow(nnz) – int64int32nag_int array
5:     icol(nnz) – int64int32nag_int array
nnz, the dimension of the array, must satisfy the constraint 1nnzn × (n + 1) / 2$1\le {\mathbf{nnz}}\le {\mathbf{n}}×\left({\mathbf{n}}+1\right)/2$.
The row and column indices of the nonzero elements supplied in array a.
Constraints:
irow and icol must satisfy these constraints (which may be imposed by a call to nag_sparse_complex_herm_sort (f11zp)):
• 1irow(i)n$1\le {\mathbf{irow}}\left(\mathit{i}\right)\le {\mathbf{n}}$ and 1icol(i)irow(i)$1\le {\mathbf{icol}}\left(\mathit{i}\right)\le {\mathbf{irow}}\left(\mathit{i}\right)$, for i = 1,2,,nnz$\mathit{i}=1,2,\dots ,{\mathbf{nnz}}$;
• irow(i1) < irow(i)${\mathbf{irow}}\left(\mathit{i}-1\right)<{\mathbf{irow}}\left(\mathit{i}\right)$ or irow(i1) = irow(i)${\mathbf{irow}}\left(\mathit{i}-1\right)={\mathbf{irow}}\left(\mathit{i}\right)$ and icol(i1) < icol(i)${\mathbf{icol}}\left(\mathit{i}-1\right)<{\mathbf{icol}}\left(\mathit{i}\right)$, for i = 2,3,,nnz$\mathit{i}=2,3,\dots ,{\mathbf{nnz}}$.
6:     omega – double scalar
If precon = 'S'${\mathbf{precon}}=\text{'S'}$, omega is the relaxation parameter ω$\omega$ to be used in the SSOR method. Otherwise omega need not be initialized.
Constraint: 0.0 < omega < 2.0$0.0<{\mathbf{omega}}<2.0$.
7:     b(n) – complex array
n, the dimension of the array, must satisfy the constraint n1${\mathbf{n}}\ge 1$.

 ‖rk‖∞ ≤ τ × (‖b‖∞ + ‖A‖∞‖xk‖∞). $‖rk‖∞≤τ×(‖b‖∞+‖A‖∞‖xk‖∞).$
If tol0.0${\mathbf{tol}}\le 0.0$, τ = max (sqrt(ε),sqrt(n)ε)$\tau =\mathrm{max}\phantom{\rule{0.125em}{0ex}}\left(\sqrt{\epsilon },\sqrt{n}\epsilon \right)$ is used, where ε$\epsilon$ is the machine precision. Otherwise τ = max (tol,10ε,sqrt(n)ε)$\tau =\mathrm{max}\phantom{\rule{0.125em}{0ex}}\left({\mathbf{tol}},10\epsilon ,\sqrt{n}\epsilon \right)$ is used.
Constraint: tol < 1.0${\mathbf{tol}}<1.0$.
9:     maxitn – int64int32nag_int scalar
The maximum number of iterations allowed.
Constraint: maxitn1${\mathbf{maxitn}}\ge 1$.
10:   x(n) – complex array

The number of iterations carried out.
4:     rdiag(n) – double array

5:     ifail – int64int32nag_int scalar
${\mathrm{ifail}}={\mathbf{0}}$ unless the function detects an error (see [Error Indicators and Warnings]).

## Error Indicators and Warnings

Errors or warnings detected by the function:
ifail = 1${\mathbf{ifail}}=1$
 On entry, method ≠ 'CG'${\mathbf{method}}\ne \text{'CG'}$ or 'SYMMLQ'$\text{'SYMMLQ'}$, or precon ≠ 'N'${\mathbf{precon}}\ne \text{'N'}$, 'J'$\text{'J'}$ or 'S'$\text{'S'}$, or n < 1${\mathbf{n}}<1$, or nnz < 1${\mathbf{nnz}}<1$, or nnz > n × (n + 1) / 2${\mathbf{nnz}}>{\mathbf{n}}×\left({\mathbf{n}}+1\right)/2$, or omega lies outside the interval (0.0,2.0)$\left(0.0,2.0\right)$, or tol ≥ 1.0${\mathbf{tol}}\ge 1.0$, or maxitn < 1${\mathbf{maxitn}}<1$, or lwork is too small.
ifail = 2${\mathbf{ifail}}=2$
On entry, the arrays irow and icol fail to satisfy the following constraints:
• 1irow(i)n$1\le {\mathbf{irow}}\left(i\right)\le {\mathbf{n}}$ and 1icol(i)irow(i)$1\le {\mathbf{icol}}\left(i\right)\le {\mathbf{irow}}\left(i\right)$, for i = 1,2,,nnz$i=1,2,\dots ,{\mathbf{nnz}}$;
• irow(i1) < irow(i)${\mathbf{irow}}\left(i-1\right)<{\mathbf{irow}}\left(i\right)$, or irow(i1) = irow(i)${\mathbf{irow}}\left(i-1\right)={\mathbf{irow}}\left(i\right)$ and icol(i1) < icol(i)${\mathbf{icol}}\left(i-1\right)<{\mathbf{icol}}\left(i\right)$, for i = 2,3,,nnz$i=2,3,\dots ,{\mathbf{nnz}}$.
Therefore a nonzero element has been supplied which does not lie in the lower triangular part of A$A$, is out of order, or has duplicate row and column indices. Call nag_sparse_complex_herm_sort (f11zp) to reorder and sum or remove duplicates.
ifail = 3${\mathbf{ifail}}=3$
On entry, the matrix A$A$ has a zero diagonal element. Jacobi and SSOR preconditioners are not appropriate for this problem.
ifail = 4${\mathbf{ifail}}=4$
The required accuracy could not be obtained. However, a reasonable accuracy has been obtained and further iterations could not improve the result.
ifail = 5${\mathbf{ifail}}=5$
Required accuracy not obtained in maxitn iterations.
ifail = 6${\mathbf{ifail}}=6$
The preconditioner appears not to be positive definite.
ifail = 7${\mathbf{ifail}}=7$
The matrix of the coefficients appears not to be positive definite (conjugate gradient method only).
ifail = 8${\mathbf{ifail}}=8$
A serious error has occurred in an internal call to an auxiliary function. Check all function calls and array sizes. Seek expert help.
ifail = 9${\mathbf{ifail}}=9$
The matrix of the coefficients has a non-real diagonal entry, and is therefore not Hermitian.

## Accuracy

On successful termination, the final residual rk = bAxk${r}_{k}=b-A{x}_{k}$, where k = itn$k={\mathbf{itn}}$, satisfies the termination criterion
 ‖rk‖∞ ≤ τ × (‖b‖∞ + ‖A‖∞‖xk‖∞) . $‖rk‖∞ ≤ τ × ( ‖b‖∞ + ‖A‖∞ ‖xk‖∞ ) .$
The value of the final residual norm is returned in rnorm.

The time taken by nag_sparse_complex_herm_solve_jacssor (f11js) for each iteration is roughly proportional to nnz. One iteration with the Lanczos method (SYMMLQ) requires a slightly larger number of operations than one iteration with the conjugate gradient method.
The number of iterations required to achieve a prescribed accuracy cannot easily be determined a priori, as it can depend dramatically on the conditioning and spectrum of the preconditioned matrix of the coefficients A = M1A$\stackrel{-}{A}={M}^{-1}A$.
