# NAG CL Interfacef08xnc (zgges)

Note: this function is deprecated. Replaced by f08xqc.

## 1Purpose

f08xnc computes the generalized eigenvalues, the generalized Schur form $\left(S,T\right)$ and, optionally, the left and/or right generalized Schur vectors for a pair of $n$ by $n$ complex nonsymmetric matrices $\left(A,B\right)$. f08xnc is marked as deprecated by LAPACK; the replacement routine is f08xqc which makes better use of Level 3 BLAS.

## 3Description

The generalized Schur factorization for a pair of complex matrices $\left(A,B\right)$ is given by
 $A = QSZH , B = QTZH ,$
where $Q$ and $Z$ are unitary, $T$ and $S$ are upper triangular. The generalized eigenvalues, $\lambda$, of $\left(A,B\right)$ are computed from the diagonals of $T$ and $S$ and satisfy
 $Az = λBz ,$
where $z$ is the corresponding generalized eigenvector. $\lambda$ is actually returned as the pair $\left(\alpha ,\beta \right)$ such that
 $λ = α/β$
since $\beta$, or even both $\alpha$ and $\beta$ can be zero. The columns of $Q$ and $Z$ are the left and right generalized Schur vectors of $\left(A,B\right)$.
Optionally, f08xnc can order the generalized eigenvalues on the diagonals of $\left(S,T\right)$ so that selected eigenvalues are at the top left. The leading columns of $Q$ and $Z$ then form an orthonormal basis for the corresponding eigenspaces, the deflating subspaces.
f08xnc computes $T$ to have real non-negative diagonal entries. The generalized Schur factorization, before reordering, is computed by the $QZ$ algorithm.

## 5Arguments

1: $\mathbf{order}$Nag_OrderType Input
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 ${\mathbf{order}}=\mathrm{Nag_RowMajor}$. See Section 3.1.3 in the Introduction to the NAG Library CL Interface for a more detailed explanation of the use of this argument.
Constraint: ${\mathbf{order}}=\mathrm{Nag_RowMajor}$ or $\mathrm{Nag_ColMajor}$.
2: $\mathbf{jobvsl}$Nag_LeftVecsType Input
On entry: if ${\mathbf{jobvsl}}=\mathrm{Nag_NotLeftVecs}$, do not compute the left Schur vectors.

Constraint: ${\mathbf{jobvsl}}=\mathrm{Nag_NotLeftVecs}$ or $\mathrm{Nag_LeftVecs}$.
3: $\mathbf{jobvsr}$Nag_RightVecsType Input
On entry: if ${\mathbf{jobvsr}}=\mathrm{Nag_NotRightVecs}$, do not compute the right Schur vectors.
If ${\mathbf{jobvsr}}=\mathrm{Nag_RightVecs}$, compute the right Schur vectors.

4: $\mathbf{sort}$Nag_SortEigValsType Input
On entry: specifies whether or not to order the eigenvalues on the diagonal of the generalized Schur form.
${\mathbf{sort}}=\mathrm{Nag_NoSortEigVals}$
Eigenvalues are not ordered.
${\mathbf{sort}}=\mathrm{Nag_SortEigVals}$
Eigenvalues are ordered (see selctg).
Constraint: ${\mathbf{sort}}=\mathrm{Nag_NoSortEigVals}$ or $\mathrm{Nag_SortEigVals}$.
5: $\mathbf{selctg}$function, supplied by the user External Function
If ${\mathbf{sort}}=\mathrm{Nag_SortEigVals}$, selctg is used to select generalized eigenvalues to be moved to the top left of the generalized Schur form.
If ${\mathbf{sort}}=\mathrm{Nag_NoSortEigVals}$, selctg is not referenced by f08xnc, and may be specified as NULLFN.
The specification of selctg is:
 Nag_Boolean selctg (Complex a, Complex b)
1: $\mathbf{a}$Complex Input
2: $\mathbf{b}$Complex Input
On entry: an eigenvalue ${\mathbf{a}}\left[j-1\right]/{\mathbf{b}}\left[j-1\right]$ is selected if ${\mathbf{selctg}}\left({\mathbf{a}}\left[j-1\right],{\mathbf{b}}\left[j-1\right]\right)$ is Nag_TRUE.
Note that in the ill-conditioned case, a selected generalized eigenvalue may no longer satisfy ${\mathbf{selctg}}\left({\mathbf{a}}\left[j-1\right],{\mathbf{b}}\left[j-1\right]\right)=\mathrm{Nag_TRUE}$ after ordering. ${\mathbf{fail}}\mathbf{.}\mathbf{code}=$ NE_SCHUR_REORDER_SELECT in this case.
6: $\mathbf{n}$Integer Input
On entry: $n$, the order of the matrices $A$ and $B$.
Constraint: ${\mathbf{n}}\ge 0$.
7: $\mathbf{a}\left[\mathit{dim}\right]$Complex Input/Output
Note: the dimension, dim, of the array a must be at least $\mathrm{max}\phantom{\rule{0.125em}{0ex}}\left(1,{\mathbf{pda}}×{\mathbf{n}}\right)$.
The $\left(i,j\right)$th element of the matrix $A$ is stored in
• ${\mathbf{a}}\left[\left(j-1\right)×{\mathbf{pda}}+i-1\right]$ when ${\mathbf{order}}=\mathrm{Nag_ColMajor}$;
• ${\mathbf{a}}\left[\left(i-1\right)×{\mathbf{pda}}+j-1\right]$ when ${\mathbf{order}}=\mathrm{Nag_RowMajor}$.
On entry: the first of the pair of matrices, $A$.
On exit: a has been overwritten by its generalized Schur form $S$.
8: $\mathbf{pda}$Integer Input
On entry: the stride separating row or column elements (depending on the value of order) in the array a.

• ${\mathbf{b}}\left[\left(j-1\right)×{\mathbf{pdb}}+i-1\right]$ when ${\mathbf{order}}=\mathrm{Nag_ColMajor}$;
• ${\mathbf{b}}\left[\left(i-1\right)×{\mathbf{pdb}}+j-1\right]$ when ${\mathbf{order}}=\mathrm{Nag_RowMajor}$.

11: $\mathbf{sdim}$Integer * Output
On exit: if ${\mathbf{sort}}=\mathrm{Nag_NoSortEigVals}$, ${\mathbf{sdim}}=0$.
If ${\mathbf{sort}}=\mathrm{Nag_SortEigVals}$, ${\mathbf{sdim}}=\text{}$ number of eigenvalues (after sorting) for which selctg is Nag_TRUE.
12: $\mathbf{alpha}\left[{\mathbf{n}}\right]$Complex Output
On exit: see the description of beta.
13: $\mathbf{beta}\left[{\mathbf{n}}\right]$Complex Output
On exit: ${\mathbf{alpha}}\left[\mathit{j}-1\right]/{\mathbf{beta}}\left[\mathit{j}-1\right]$, for $\mathit{j}=1,2,\dots ,{\mathbf{n}}$, will be the generalized eigenvalues. ${\mathbf{alpha}}\left[\mathit{j}-1\right]$, for $\mathit{j}=1,2,\dots ,{\mathbf{n}}$ and ${\mathbf{beta}}\left[\mathit{j}-1\right]$, for $\mathit{j}=1,2,\dots ,{\mathbf{n}}$, are the diagonals of the complex Schur form $\left(A,B\right)$ output by f08xnc. The ${\mathbf{beta}}\left[j-1\right]$ will be non-negative real.
Note:  the quotients ${\mathbf{alpha}}\left[j-1\right]/{\mathbf{beta}}\left[j-1\right]$ may easily overflow or underflow, and ${\mathbf{beta}}\left[j-1\right]$ may even be zero. Thus, you should avoid naively computing the ratio $\alpha /\beta$. However, alpha will always be less than and usually comparable with ${‖A‖}_{2}$ in magnitude, and beta will always be less than and usually comparable with ${‖B‖}_{2}$.

• $\mathrm{max}\phantom{\rule{0.125em}{0ex}}\left(1,{\mathbf{pdvsr}}×{\mathbf{n}}\right)$ when ${\mathbf{jobvsr}}=\mathrm{Nag_RightVecs}$;
• $1$ otherwise.
The $\left(i,j\right)$th element of the matrix is stored in
• ${\mathbf{vsr}}\left[\left(j-1\right)×{\mathbf{pdvsr}}+i-1\right]$ when ${\mathbf{order}}=\mathrm{Nag_ColMajor}$;

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.
See Section 7.5 in the Introduction to the NAG Library CL Interface for further information.
NE_ITERATION_QZ
The $QZ$ iteration did not converge and the matrix pair $\left(A,B\right)$ is not in the generalized Schur form. The computed ${\alpha }_{i}$ and ${\beta }_{i}$ should be correct for $i=〈\mathit{\text{value}}〉,\dots ,〈\mathit{\text{value}}〉$.
The $QZ$ iteration failed with an unexpected error, please contact NAG.
NE_NO_LICENCE
Your licence key may have expired or may not have been installed correctly.
See Section 8 in the Introduction to the NAG Library CL Interface for further information.
NE_SCHUR_REORDER
The eigenvalues could not be reordered because some eigenvalues were too close to separate (the problem is very ill-conditioned).
NE_SCHUR_REORDER_SELECT
After reordering, roundoff changed values of some complex eigenvalues so that leading eigenvalues in the generalized Schur form no longer satisfy ${\mathbf{selctg}}=\mathrm{Nag_TRUE}$. This could also be caused by underflow due to scaling.

## 7Accuracy

The computed generalized Schur factorization satisfies
 $A+E = QS ZH , B+F = QT ZH ,$
where
 $E,F F = Oε A,B F$
and $\epsilon$ is the machine precision. See Section 4.11 of Anderson et al. (1999) for further details.
