## 3  Description

F08KSF (ZGEBRD) reduces a complex $m$ by $n$ matrix $A$ to real bidiagonal form $B$ by a unitary transformation: $A=QB{P}^{\mathrm{H}}$, where $Q$ and ${P}^{\mathrm{H}}$ are unitary matrices of order $m$ and $n$ respectively.
If $m\ge n$, the reduction is given by:
 $A =Q B1 0 PH = Q1 B1 PH ,$
where ${B}_{1}$ is a real $n$ by $n$ upper bidiagonal matrix and ${Q}_{1}$ consists of the first $n$ columns of $Q$.
If $m, the reduction is given by
 $A =Q B1 0 PH = Q B1 P1H ,$
where ${B}_{1}$ is a real $m$ by $m$ lower bidiagonal matrix and ${P}_{1}^{\mathrm{H}}$ consists of the first $m$ rows of ${P}^{\mathrm{H}}$.
The unitary matrices $Q$ and $P$ are not formed explicitly but are represented as products of elementary reflectors (see the F08 Chapter Introduction for details). Routines are provided to work with $Q$ and $P$ in this representation (see Section 8).

## 5  Parameters

1:     M – INTEGERInput

Constraint: ${\mathbf{M}}\ge 0$.
2:     N – INTEGERInput

If $m, the diagonal and first subdiagonal are overwritten by the lower bidiagonal matrix $B$, elements below the first subdiagonal are overwritten by details of the unitary matrix $Q$ and elements above the diagonal are overwritten by details of the unitary matrix $P$.
4:     LDA – INTEGERInput
On entry: the first dimension of the array A as declared in the (sub)program from which F08KSF (ZGEBRD) is called.
Constraint: ${\mathbf{LDA}}\ge \mathrm{max}\phantom{\rule{0.125em}{0ex}}\left(1,{\mathbf{M}}\right)$.
5:     D($*$) – REAL (KIND=nag_wp) arrayOutput
Note: the dimension of the array D must be at least $\mathrm{max}\phantom{\rule{0.125em}{0ex}}\left(1,\mathrm{min}\phantom{\rule{0.125em}{0ex}}\left({\mathbf{M}},{\mathbf{N}}\right)\right)$.

On exit: the off-diagonal elements of the bidiagonal matrix $B$.
7:     TAUQ($*$) – COMPLEX (KIND=nag_wp) arrayOutput
Note: the dimension of the array TAUQ must be at least $\mathrm{max}\phantom{\rule{0.125em}{0ex}}\left(1,\mathrm{min}\phantom{\rule{0.125em}{0ex}}\left({\mathbf{M}},{\mathbf{N}}\right)\right)$.

8:     TAUP($*$) – COMPLEX (KIND=nag_wp) arrayOutput
Note: the dimension of the array TAUP must be at least $\mathrm{max}\phantom{\rule{0.125em}{0ex}}\left(1,\mathrm{min}\phantom{\rule{0.125em}{0ex}}\left({\mathbf{M}},{\mathbf{N}}\right)\right)$.

9:     WORK($\mathrm{max}\phantom{\rule{0.125em}{0ex}}\left(1,{\mathbf{LWORK}}\right)$) – COMPLEX (KIND=nag_wp) arrayWorkspace
On exit: if ${\mathbf{INFO}}={\mathbf{0}}$, the real part of ${\mathbf{WORK}}\left(1\right)$ contains the minimum value of LWORK required for optimal performance.
10:   LWORK – INTEGERInput
On entry: the dimension of the array WORK as declared in the (sub)program from which F08KSF (ZGEBRD) is called.
If ${\mathbf{LWORK}}=-1$, a workspace query is assumed; the routine only calculates the optimal size of the WORK array, returns this value as the first entry of the WORK array, and no error message related to LWORK is issued.
Suggested value: for optimal performance, ${\mathbf{LWORK}}\ge \left({\mathbf{M}}+{\mathbf{N}}\right)×\mathit{nb}$, where $\mathit{nb}$ is the optimal block size.
Constraint: ${\mathbf{LWORK}}\ge \mathrm{max}\phantom{\rule{0.125em}{0ex}}\left(1,{\mathbf{M}},{\mathbf{N}}\right)$ or ${\mathbf{LWORK}}=-1$.
11:   INFO – INTEGEROutput
On exit: ${\mathbf{INFO}}=0$ unless the routine detects an error (see Section 6).

## 6  Error Indicators and Warnings

Errors or warnings detected by the routine:
${\mathbf{INFO}}<0$
If ${\mathbf{INFO}}=-i$, argument $i$ had an illegal value. An explanatory message is output, and execution of the program is terminated.

## 7  Accuracy

The computed bidiagonal form $B$ satisfies $QB{P}^{\mathrm{H}}=A+E$, where
 $E2 ≤ c n ε A2 ,$
$c\left(n\right)$ is a modestly increasing function of $n$, and $\epsilon$ is the machine precision.
The elements of $B$ themselves may be sensitive to small perturbations in $A$ or to rounding errors in the computation, but this does not affect the stability of the singular values and vectors.

The total number of real floating point operations is approximately $16{n}^{2}\left(3m-n\right)/3$ if $m\ge n$ or $16{m}^{2}\left(3n-m\right)/3$ if $m.
If $m\gg n$, it can be more efficient to first call F08ASF (ZGEQRF) to perform a $QR$ factorization of $A$, and then to call F08KSF (ZGEBRD) to reduce the factor $R$ to bidiagonal form. This requires approximately $8{n}^{2}\left(m+n\right)$ floating point operations.
If $m\ll n$, it can be more efficient to first call F08AVF (ZGELQF) to perform an $LQ$ factorization of $A$, and then to call F08KSF (ZGEBRD) to reduce the factor $L$ to bidiagonal form. This requires approximately $8{m}^{2}\left(m+n\right)$ operations.
To form the unitary matrices ${P}^{\mathrm{H}}$ and/or $Q$ F08KSF (ZGEBRD) may be followed by calls to F08KTF (ZUNGBR):
to form the $m$ by $m$ unitary matrix $Q$
```CALL ZUNGBR('Q',M,M,N,A,LDA,TAUQ,WORK,LWORK,INFO)
```
but note that the second dimension of the array A must be at least M, which may be larger than was required by F08KSF (ZGEBRD);
to form the $n$ by $n$ unitary matrix ${P}^{\mathrm{H}}$
```CALL ZUNGBR('P',N,N,M,A,LDA,TAUP,WORK,LWORK,INFO)
```
but note that the first dimension of the array A, specified by the parameter LDA, must be at least N, which may be larger than was required by F08KSF (ZGEBRD).
To apply $Q$ or $P$ to a complex rectangular matrix $C$, F08KSF (ZGEBRD) may be followed by a call to F08KUF (ZUNMBR).
The real analogue of this routine is F08KEF (DGEBRD).
