f08np computes the eigenvalues and, optionally, the left and/or right eigenvectors for an n by n complex nonsymmetric matrix A.
Optionally, it also computes a balancing transformation to improve the conditioning of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors, reciprocal condition numbers for the eigenvalues, and reciprocal condition numbers for the right eigenvectors.

Parameters

balanc
Type: System..::..String
On entry: indicates how the input matrix should be diagonally scaled and/or permuted to improve the conditioning of its eigenvalues.
balanc="N"
Do not diagonally scale or permute.

balanc="B"
Both diagonally scale and permute A.
Computed reciprocal condition numbers will be for the matrix after balancing and/or permuting. Permuting does not change condition numbers (in exact arithmetic), but balancing does.

If jobvr="N", vr is not referenced.
ilo
Type: System..::..Int32%

Description

The right eigenvector vj of A satisfies
Avj=λjvj
where λj is the jth eigenvalue of A. The left eigenvector uj of A satisfies
ujHA=λjujH
where ujH denotes the conjugate transpose of uj.
Balancing a matrix means permuting the rows and columns to make it more nearly upper triangular, and applying a diagonal similarity transformation DAD-1, where D is a diagonal matrix, with the aim of making its rows and columns closer in norm and the condition numbers of its eigenvalues and eigenvectors smaller. The computed reciprocal condition numbers correspond to the balanced matrix. Permuting rows and columns will not change the condition numbers (in exact arithmetic) but diagonal scaling will. For further explanation of balancing, see Section 4.8.1.2 of Anderson et al. (1999).
Following the optional balancing, the matrix A is first reduced to upper Hessenberg form by means of unitary similarity transformations, and the QR algorithm is then used to further reduce the matrix to upper triangular Schur form, T, from which the eigenvalues are computed. Optionally, the eigenvectors of T are also computed and backtransformed to those of A.

Error Indicators and Warnings

Some error messages may refer to parameters that are dropped from this interface (LDA, LDVL, LDVR) In these cases, an error in another parameter has usually caused an incorrect value to be inferred.
info<0
If info=-i, argument i had an illegal value. An explanatory message is output, and execution of the program is terminated.
info>0
If info=i, the QR algorithm failed to compute all the eigenvalues, and no eigenvectors or condition numbers have been computed; elements 1:ilo-1 and i+1:n of w contain eigenvalues which have converged.
ifail=-9000
An error occured, see message report.
ifail=-6000
Invalid Parameters value
ifail=-4000
Invalid dimension for array value
ifail=-8000
Negative dimension for array value
ifail=-6000

Accuracy

The computed eigenvalues and eigenvectors are exact for a nearby matrix A+E, where
E2=OεA2,
and ε is the machine precision. See Section 4.8 of Anderson et al. (1999) for further details.

Parallelism and Performance

None.

Further Comments

Each eigenvector is normalized to have Euclidean norm equal to unity and the element of largest absolute value real and positive.
The total number of floating-point operations is proportional to n3.
The real analogue of this method is f08nb.

Example

This example finds all the eigenvalues and right eigenvectors of the matrix
A= -3.97-5.04i -4.11+3.70i -0.34+1.01i 1.29-0.86i 0.34-1.50i 1.52-0.43i 1.88-5.38i 3.36+0.65i 3.31-3.85i 2.50+3.45i 0.88-1.08i 0.64-1.48i -1.10+0.82i 1.81-1.59i 3.25+1.33i 1.57-3.44i ,
together with estimates of the condition number and forward error bounds for each eigenvalue and eigenvector. The option to balance the matrix is used. In order to compute the condition numbers of the eigenvalues, the left eigenvectors also have to be computed, but they are not printed out in this example.
